I’ve never watched any of those videos but One thing I don’t understand is how ‘victims’ decide to fully trust and follow advice of random YouTube celebrities.

  The videos are incredibly well produced, super slick editing. Makes it seem more exciting and profound than it really is. Not related to this article, but one of the most effective recruiting tools terror groups have is slickly produced marketing videos. They appeal strongly to individuals with a vulnerability that the group seems to address in their videos, such as not fitting in or existential boredom.
