Spending so much time online could have created fertile ground for extremism to grow, say researchers.
Researchers across the world are increasingly finding ways in which the coronavirus pandemic changed us. As more data comes in, what impact have lockdowns and their aftermath had on the spread of extremism?
Jacob Davey, a researcher at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue , a UK counter-extremism think tank, also identified "quite significant spikes in extremist activity and also conspiracy theories" during the pandemic."It might be people spending more time on their computer," he says, but there was also "a heightened sense of anxiety". Conspiratorial views and talking points "provide easy answers" to people who are worried, he argues.
Easily searchable groups on Telegram mean more extreme networks can feed into seemingly innocent groups. Dr Squirrel says accounts which were removed over the QAnon conspiracy theory on Twitter rapidly "flooded over to Telegram".US Rapper Nick Nittoli shares his thoughts on QAnon and the US Capitol riots ‘So embarrassed’When Telegram decides to take action, such as against Islamic State group accounts, "it's actually pretty effective," and those accounts have "found it really difficult to re-establish a foothold".
