Hype, aside, I think it's largely true. People involved in any of these movements seem lost in a lot of ways. What person in their right mind wanted to be a radical protester or right-wing terrorist when they grew up. How many young people really have that strong of an interest in any kind of politics? Radical right/left groups have been common in Europe for years, but only recently here. Why? I think gaming and social media are huge factors, as well as less general direction in terms of career or the type of life they desire to live as an adult. Gaming is a plague, IMO, with social media not far behind. It detracts from real social interaction and effects a person's view of other people.
