Do not trust people who are hostile to anyone who suggests political situations are complex. Ask yourself what they gain out of watering down issues into neat little slogans that no one is allowed to question without being dogpiled. What do they gain out of actively discouraging critical thought, and angrily shaming people who ask questions that go deeper than a viral twitter thread? How do you think radicalization happens, by encouraging people to examine multiple aspects of a situation and to consume as much information as possible? No, it happens by dumbing down the world into black and white situations only they have the answers to, and accusing anyone who doesn't blindly accept those supposed answers of malice and being on the side of the enemy, simply because they function in reality and know the world's problems can't be solved with the wave of a magic wand—or the stroke of a pen.
