If we do not offer community to young folks, third spaces, etc—we gonna get Nazi gangs. Thats how that works. Also, white folks need to pay attention to their sons. Nazi youth didn’t just happen. It happened with a lot of unsupervised screen time 15 years ago. A lot of parenting that didn’t happen. - ThreadSky

And as a therapist, I see a whole lot. Like working with teens who do not know how to regulate their emotions, ACTUALLY cope with things or engage in conflict resolution. The internet has taught them they can just block people.

You cannot block someone on your phone or SM and think that’s how you handle an interpersonal issue. And I don’t mean abusers. I mean just one argument and they’ve learned to block. This produces children who troll and do not engage in conflict resolution.

I don’t get how they make it through high school like that. You can’t block the person in front of you right? So what’s happening?

Ten years ago, it was all over Discord and the gamers chat rooms.

There was a concerted push to engage teens and recruit them into neo Nazi/white supremacist groups.

Don't know if it's changed any over the years.

And I remember the articles! Outside of sports what is there for white boys? They may not hate at first but if the community that DOES welcome them demands that behavior, well… and that’s a white parenting and community problem.
