"Radicalization"

It's nice to discuss things with people who agree with
you, and as to the rest of those people? Who needs the stress?

I haven't written for a considerable time, but its spring, and someone has to remind you that this has, historically led to winter. Anyway -

I assume this article attracted some attention and rose due to the use of the term "radicalization". The nuances of propaganda warrant tracking. The widespread use since last week was to provide a comfortable margin between the recognition a practice of religion which may be associated with questionable ideology, and the embracing of those ideologies to the end of antisocial acts. Here, Assage describes the development of an overarching belief system through emotionally driven information isolated repetition, such as happens with self-spawning internet interest groups as "radicalization".

Its uncool to distrust the collective wikiconsciousness of the internet, but really, isn't Assage really a revolutionary, at the end of the day? The flowers are growing, for sure.. But who plants the seeds? Have you wondered, lately?
