Though all eyes are on the next few days, when the dust settles and the attention moves to other things. There will be some of us who will continue to research, analyse and wrote about these spaces. The problem does not disappear on Wednesday with a new admin.
The problem is here because we think about it in 4 year terms following electoral cycles, the problem is here because there is attention on it when large incident sof violence occur. However you don't end up with an insurection over night
You don't end up offline impacts of online Conspriacy theories overnight. The rise DVE is not due to months of factors but years. When all the temp extremism experts and reporters move on to other things, remember that this issue will not go away without a multisectoral effort.
Soni hope that in the months to comes mechanisms are out in place to give momentum to research, prevention and identification of vulnerabilities. I hope long term plans are considered and set into motion. I hope we do not forget about this in a few weeks.
