How do nice people end up in a militia, or attacking peaceful protestors?

How does someone go from Youtube viewer to violent agitator?

So many of us may be asking these same questions.

Leading academics are grappling with them, but right now, the ivory tower isn’t what we need.

Glitterpill believes these are grassroots problems with community solutions. The Glitterpill community wants to give every day people the tools they need to help their friends, family, and coworkers from falling down a dangerous rabbit hole.

As much as social media can be a treacherous landscape of fake news and echo chambers, Glitterpill believes it also has the potential to revive healthy debate and foster powerful transformational discussions.

In Glitterpill you will receive important data, analyzed by a professional researcher and trained academic in the field of countering violent extremism so that you can stay up to date without the fatigue of parsing through each and every piece of news yourself.

    Episode 22: The Brainwashing of my Dad with Jen Senko

    Episode 22: The Brainwashing of my Dad with Jen Senko

    About This Episode
    In this insightful episode, Jen and I trace her father's complex journey through the rabbit hole pf conservative mass media and his eventual return. Guided by the profound insight that “we don’t see things as they are, we see things as we are”, we utilize theories as lenses to interpret and understand new phenomena. We also discuss approaches proposed by Steve Hassan and Jim Stewartson, and how the complexities of radicalization and deradicalization might necessitate a broader spectrum of perspectives.
