The KKK wasn’t defeated by argument — it was stopped by a mix of law enforcement, exposure, and social rejection.

Federal action crushed its violence. Journalists and culture stripped its mystique. Communities withdrew acceptance.

For a Serious Birthday Opinion as I am wont to give once yearly, until a lot of people who call themselves "counterextremism researchers" stop being gutless babies about the idea that some people are, in fact, just evil, we're fucked.

My biggest persistent gripe within the too-broad field of counterextremism (eugh) that isn't inside baseball back office stuff is we've largely abandoned the view that public communication is science communication.

It has created a massive opportunity for grifters, dullards, and general bad actors.

🧵 Why Merging Safeguarding & Counter-Extremism Data Is a Dangerous Move

If we really want to be worried about Reform UK in local governments? 👀

Please come down this data-governance rabbithole with me.
We have some concerns. 🕳️🐇

github.com/josefsbreakf...
A section titled “UK Governance Note” explains how clustering safeguarding and counterextremism data/governance increases risk. Bullet points note that safeguarding systems hold sensitive survivor disclosures, counterextremism frameworks carry political intelligence, and combining them raises the payoff for bad actors. It adds that from a forensic psychology perspective, perpetrators weigh risk versus reward, so concentrating both types of data makes breaches more attractive. Below is a table titled “Forensic Risk Matrix” with three rows: Safeguarding Only → Survivor disclosures (DV, CSA, etc.) → High risk, sensitive but siloed. Counterextremism Only → Security intel, political networks → High risk, adversary-targeted, state priority. Safeguarding + Counterextremism → Both survivor data and security intel → Critical risk, dual payoff attracts powerful perpetrators.

Pakistan urges international tech accountability after blocking 533 terrorist-linked accounts. Strong compliance by Facebook/TikTok; weak by X/WhatsApp. Denying extremists digital platforms is a global security imperative.

Pakistan’s youth stand at a crossroads, between renewal and radicalization. Education, equity, and engagement can turn this demographic bulge into a national strength, not a threat.

It's at least mildly validating to see people who've complained about my opinions on counterextremism following this guy because they (ideally) think he's just ironically a white nationalist posting racist material from Twitter.

Bamboozled by "Woke Aryan Chad", great job.
The profile header of "Based Aryan Chad". Cool.

Key Insight (3/4):

Booth has since migrated his content to alt-tech platforms like Odysee, bypassing traditional moderation and continuing his extremist messaging.

The White House is one of many institutions that sets the cultural and social context for CVE measures. In this 101, Habiba Farh gives an overview of the institutions and organizations behind CVE and its dangerous impacts. Learn more at politicalresearch.org/2024/03/18/1....
CVE AND THE WHITE HOUSE FROM 101: Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) BY HABIBA FArh Obama The Obama administration quietly launched the Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) Initiative in three cities (Greater Boston, Los Angeles, and the Twin cities) as a pilot program, as a soft-power approach “to prevent homegrown violent extremism.” Trump In 2017, the Trump Administration divested from the previous administration’s general CVE approach and reportedly planned to rename its existing programs as “Countering Islamic Extremism” or “Countering Radical Islamic Extremism” to label Muslims as the sole target of the administration’s counterextremism measures. Two years later, the Trump administration rebranded CVE as Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention (TVTP). Biden While campaigning, President Biden promised to end the TVTP program. However, in 2022, the Biden administration announced the launch of the Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3), which was functionally a rebrand of CVE and TVTP that continued and expanded funding to law enforcement. This iteration of the program explicitly named White supremacists and anti-government militias as domestic threats after the January 6 insurrection.
