In case you missed it, here's my post-#CapitolSiege interview with @joshuabrustein for Bloomberg about far-right extremism: its similar trajectory as ISIS, radicalization, the complications of deplatforming, and what the future holds for this movement.

Online Extremism Expert Says Far Right Has Adapted ISIS Playbook

 

Rita Katz, the founder of SITE Intelligence, which tracks extremism online, says the growth in right-wing radicalization in the U.S. stems from President Trump’s behavior and the dynamics of social media.

 

What are the parallels between the right-wing radicalization efforts online and those of other extremist groups like ISIS?

 

ISIS and this new far right have had remarkably similar trajectories. Both were formed out of rejection of their movements’ establishments, both were adept at leveraging social media for recruitment and setting up vast online infrastructures, and both have prioritized action over a coherent ideology. At times the far right was following in lockstep with ISIS’s playbook online, down to the very platforms they used.

Coming eye to eye with the mysterious guerrilla mastermind he had been hunting for the past several years, a shackled Secretary of State John Kerry looked on Thursday as a notorious and brutal Chechen terror leader removed his mask to reveal the scarred face of Kerry’s former mentor. “No, it can’t be—the explosion in Iran, the fire—you’ve been dead 15 years,” said the bruised and bloodied U.S. cabinet official, staring in disbelief at the former black-ops expert who had taken Kerry under his wing and spent years training him in espionage, explosives, and martial arts before his apparent death while sabotaging an Iranian oil pipeline. “It’s been you this whole time, hasn’t it? You were behind the kidnapping of the Russian attaché, the uranium stolen from Seversk—all of it. How could you turn your back on everything we fought for? I looked up to you. I trusted you!” At press time, Kerry was promising his mentor that he had watched him die once and he would do it again.
