Basically like a person following a religious ideology?
- braythwayt 7y agoYes, except I am not "just" talking about someone following an ideology, I am talking about someone who engages with others who follow the same ideology, and thus gets emotional support from "belonging to the tribe." This is why the internet changes everything about radicalization: It makes it nearly frictionless to find a critical mass of other people who share your ideology and engage with them all day long.
