A young man in his 20s told me today that a conversation we had last month kept him from falling into the far-right pipeline.

Back then, he shared ideas he’d read online and asked my opinion—not out of defiance, but because he felt safe. He knew I wouldn’t judge or dismiss him.

That talk sparked something. He dug deeper, educated himself, and saw the extremism in far-right content.

One conversation kept him from extremism.
