Parents need to understand how white supremacists prey on teen boys, so they can intervene.
Raising teenagers can be terrifying. Our squishy little babies become awkward hormonal creatures who question our authority at every turn. I expected that. What I didnt predict was that my sons adolescence would include being drawn to the kind of online content that right-wing extremists use to recruit so many young men. The first sign was a seemingly innocuous word, used lightheartedly: triggered. As my 11- and 14-year-old sons and their friends talked and bantered phones in hand, as always in the back seat of the car, one of them shouted it in response to a meme, and they all laughed uproariously. I almost lost control of the car.
Thats because I know that word often used to mock people who are hurt or offended by racism as overly sensitive is a calling card of the alt-right, which the Anti-Defamation League defines as a segment of the white supremacist movement consisting of a loose network of racists and anti-Semites who reject mainstream conservatism in favor of politics that embrace implicit or explicit racism, anti-Semitism and white supremacy. People associated with this group are known for trolling those who disagree with them, and calling critics triggered is a favorite tactic.

What a silly bunt.
I think that Geiko lizard is a white racist sob. It’s time they pull it off the air. Replace it with a tolerant talking duck.
What a pant-load. If anything leftists are recruiting white boys for their white guilt. White kids are into nothing but ghetto trash culture these days anyway.
Gimme a frikkin’ break. You dorks at the Times are the one’s constantly stoking racism and division.
Liberals are always projecting.
“This doesnt even pass as fiction.”
I’ve seen a lot more black and lefty racists than white racists.
When they smear every conservative as “racist” and “in the sphere of the KKK”, the nation IS loaded with bigots.
As the slimes spirals...
Watch your accusations, Jonah. Don’t make me set you straight.
Triggered, all right.
Screwball woman driver.
People associated with this group are known for trolling those who disagree with them, and calling critics triggered is a favorite tactic.
said the lady who was just triggered by laughter about triggering
To the Left, if you are not 100% behind their agenda then you are a White Supremacist.
Is she talking about white liberal sons recruiting for Planned Parenthood ?
You saw a little bit of that at Georgia Southern this week, with some non-violent backlash when they burned the Latina authors book after she was browbeating white kids for their privilege in a campus talk. Lots of kids in Georgia attend college on the lottery-funded Hope Scholarship, many from families of quite meager means, so to many, Im sure their supposed privilege was news.
There was lots of pearl-clutching over this book burning, and of course the optics of burning a book arent great. But I saw it as a sign at least some of the post-Millenials have about had enough of being made out as villains for their skin color. And its amazing how so many who say nothing about violent acts made to stop conservative speakers on college campuses, and defend flag burning as a free speech act, are suddenly all concerned about the burning in protest of a book berating people for their race.
Be careful your white sons will become white supremacists! If being patriotic is being a white supremacist. Not to worry the parents are to busy molding snowflakes, metrosexuals and transgenders
If I’m reading this right, the author is triggered by their sons’ use of the WORD “triggered”? That word is used by lefties all the time to describe when their undergarments get in a sudden twist over nothing. This is literally insane if true.
I'm starting to seriously suffer from this. Or at least 47% of my countrymen.
