  Any group that prevents you asking questions is not a group you want to belong in.

  "I was curious" That's the trait that will get you out of mob or cult mentality.

  Kudos to her for recognizing the faults in the group and finding the truth on her own.

  My jaw dropped when she said she had never seen the Hamas self-filmed footage of October 7. <br>The social media algorithms really are a echo chamber.

  Those protests are a perfect example of how &nbsp;empathy can be corrupted and weaponised to serve the total opposite of what those young people would truly want.

  It&apos;s terrifying how many in our society have shifted into believing that murder is justifiable.

  Blindly supporting an activists movement does NOT MAKE YOU EDUCATED!

  Imagine the lack of thought being applied. She was questioned for going to learn about the place that they are protesting for. They fear that anyone will find the truth.

  What changed her mind:<br>1 own group went too far (destroying library)<br>2 a friend accidentally showed contrary evidence (nova exhibit)<br>3 ugly treatment after showing doubt on own group<br><br>What kept her stay in the group for that long: <br>1 algorithm bubble<br>2 culture of not talking to opposition<br>3 social status

  Taking responsibility to fix the damage she feels responsibility for is huge. What a remarkable and beautiful person. We just need more now

  It should be a neon red flag to anyone with minimal intelligence that when your &quot;leaders&quot; mandate that you are not allowed to question &nbsp;... that this is a cult attempting to control you. &nbsp;Run away!
