Yeah, Josh is set up as fuck, but there is a significant number of young people who cannot deal with not having a big goal or hierarchical organisation or a political cause or something.
That's why you see rabid SJWs, raging Trumpists, Antifa, religious loons etc.
They are rebels without a cause, so they find one, any one, really.
They don't really know much about the stuff they talk and just learn their lines. Because they need to believe they are in the right, they do good.
And Lockdown is fascism with a neat little bow on top. Hell, she has her own brownshirts!
You think this is sudden, but do you remember the neonazi who turned jihadi and murdered his roommates?
If you're just dumb, young and angry enough, you do anything to belong.
And I like that the book does not just hate on Josh, but shows you where he's coming from and really hammers home that it's not just the bad apples that fall for dangerous ideology.
This is a damn hot iron to touch and I think it's handled pretty well.
