Fair enough. There definitely is a lunatic fringe. I'm not sure they are that big of a threat though, seems like a small minority to me amplified by social media. I know there is a heavy focus on "killing the fringes" atm. but i don't know if i agree. The focus must be on good education, and generally better and more research journalism which is sorely missing, leaving large parts of politics / economics / lobbyism / tech-policy making in the darkness creating a landscape where people speculate from correct "hunches" that sadly quickly becomes fantasy and community for these people that for the most part are searching for some grounding in a large chaotic world.
