Report on media manipulation "from radicalized groups that emerged from internet subcultures"

But I look back and wonder sometimes - if I hadn’t had some of the opportunities I had - access to mental health care, parents who helped with college… would I be sitting here on Boing Boing penning a missive about an obscure internet forum? Or would I be over on /pol/ whinging about cucks?

I’m broke, severely socially isolated and officially crazy as fuck. But you ain’t never gonna find me hanging with the wankers of the alt-right.

A bad situation can encourage a moderately shitty person to become a severely shitty person. But it isn’t inevitable, and it isn’t an excuse.
