Red pill content. Tradwife fantasies. Secret slang like “Skittles” and “sneaky link.”


Online radicalization is showing up in ways many parents don't even recognize — and it’s targeting kids when they’re most vulnerable. In this episode, I speak with Abhi Ahluwalia, founder of [unlearn.], about the rise of extremist content online, how algorithms feed it, and what parents, educators, and policymakers can actually do about it.
We also talk about building real belonging in schools, how to guide critical conversations at home, and why silence in the face of harmful content is never neutral.
Listen now — and don’t forget to check the link below for unlearn’s social media glossary every parent needs.
