I had posted earlier this summer about losing my cousin and his wife to right wing extremism. But just saying that they got sucked into FOX news and right wing media didn't really cover the cold chill that my interactions with the wife, who had been a friend for almost a decade, had left me with. I just had a sense of something far darker and far more sinister. This actually explains it.

This correctly identified terrorist organization is radicalizing Americans much the same way the ISIS radicalized its followers.
