- Summary:
-
“Drinking shots with nationalists and grabbing falafel with radicals, John Safran was there the year the extreme became mainstream. No one turns up where they’re not wanted quite like John Safran. In this hilarious and disorientating adventure he digs away at the contradictions that many would prefer be left unexamined. Who is this black puppetmaster 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 is hanging with all these radicals washing off on John himself? Depends What You Mean by Extremist is a startling, confronting portrait of contemporary Australia. A larger-than-life, timely, and alarmingly insightful true story about the people who propelled the second coming of Pauline Hanson and foreshadowed the era of Trump.”--Back cover.
