I hope he doesn’t pull a gun, gets arrested, and police gets a chance to investigate this dude’s associates and round up the whole chat group. Maybe he’ll be sentenced to a restorative prison system where he gets deradicalised, realizes the error of his ways, supplies info to help stop shit like this in the future, and becomes a spokesperson for deescalation training and restorative justice reform.
That’s the kind of thing I want for common criminals. When it comes to terrorists, I just want them locked up forever, and if I trusted the government to always catch the right person, I’d want a much worse fate for them.

You can’t “deradicalize” a right-winger - right-wing ideology is anti-radical.
