And we’re here now

Realizing we’ve been lied to, fell victim to propaganda of hate and xenophobia is not radicalization. Knowing exactly what we the people are lacking and what to ask and even demand for ourselves is not radicalization! It’s simply waking up

I’ve been on red note. There is no government radicalization. Cat pictures, videos of street views, food, fashion etc.

Over on red note I’ve found it surprisingly welcoming, kind, and positive. Basically the opposite of what we know US reaction would have been if they can en-mass to “our” platforms. It’s my very favorite place to be now.
