This is the most on-point thing that I've read about the outer edge of the bell curve of Australian politics. The level of mental gymnastics on display to justify some people's sincerely-held beliefs is breathtaking. The disparity between what many people (say they) believe and what others think they believe is also pretty stark. Something about John's descriptions of all the dumb little cock-ups they make is a bit endearing. Every Aussie should read this, and maybe take a look at themselves before throwing around some hyperbole online. ( ) sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

No one turns up where they're not wanted quite like John Safran. In this hilarious and disorienting adventure he gets among our diverse community of white nationalists, ISIS supporters, anarchists and more, digging away at the contradictions that many would prefer be left unexamined. Who is this black puppet-master among the white nationalists? And this Muslim fundamentalist who geeks out on Monty Python? Is there a secret radicalisation network operating in John's own Jewish suburb? And ultimately - is hanging with all these radicals washing off on John himself? Populated by an extraordinary cast of 'ordinary' Australians, Depends What You Mean by Extremist is a startling, confronting portrait of contemporary Australia. We all think we know what's going on in our own country, but this larger-than-life, timely, and alarmingly insightful true story will make you think again ...Drinking shots with nationalists and gobbling falafel with radicals, John Safran was there the year the extreme became the mainstream.
