Transcript
00:08Honestly, I tried to forget what I was. There were nights where I would just cry and ask
00:18myself why? Why would I ever let myself do this? The part that they did struggle with
00:24was after I got detained. So we were in a quite long waiting period to hear back from
00:29the police. And from then, the police did tell my mum quite a bit of what I was doing.
00:36So they were really, really worried about what would happen to me, because realistically,
00:41we did have a clue. I was honestly trying to find people who I could have similar beliefs
00:49with. I could then socialize with them, actually have someone to talk to, because like I said,
00:54I was a very lonely child. I didn't have a lot of friends. None of the people that I knew
00:59in real life in school and outside of school didn't have any interest in politics, especially
01:05in the far right and the alt right.
