Recent school shootings in Madison and Nashville have exposed a disturbing trend of nonideological terrorism among young people. Researchers argue that these violence-driven attacks stem from antisocial online networks that encourage youth violence. Unlike traditional radicalization paths like Islamist or white nationalist terrorism, these events highlight how influencers within certain subcultures are fostering violent beliefs among children. The phenomenon has evolved from the past mass killings, indicating a new chapter in understanding youth violence and terrorism.
It's really about that violence for the sake of violence. There is a growth of intention and design within certain subcultures and subnetworks to inculcate that belief into younger people.
This is sort of the next chapter of what we could call 'far-right violence' looks like at this stage or what terrorism looks like.
