But, per your original post, wouldn't deplatforming then just be pushing it underground again? While letting it get to the point the ideas can spread and radicalize others?
- ryanSrich 6y agoI think once you’re to the point that something is illegal you’re fringe enough to where the threat is very small. There’s a big difference in the size of groups that say “we should do X” and people actually leaving their houses and “doing X”.
- lostcolony 6y agoBut the people saying "we should do X" help create the ones "doing X". When the crazy action you're contemplating also gets social acceptance and support from a group of like-minded people, all calling for it to be done, it stops seeming so crazy.
