This, in a nutshell, is the danger of online radicalisation. People are bombarded with idiocy online, whether from "anti-racists" or racists, and they start to feel as if the whole world is like that. It's very difficult to fight that feeling. I speak from experience. But it's a really toxic influence in your life. And I'd strongly recommend, as I always do, to step away from the kinds of writers who turn out that trash. .

I actually am avoiding much of it, or am trying, but sometimes I feel like a moth being attracted to a flame.
Many topics have become so toxic that it's a good thing dueling is no longer an acceptable way of settling differences.
