  The Shocking Truth about Public...

  Public transportation is often presented as the backbone of modern cities, a vital system that connects people to jobs, schools, and essential services. Advocates promote it as an affordable, eco-friendly, and efficient alternative to private vehicles, reducing congestion and improving urban mobility. Governments and transit agencies highlight its benefits, claiming it serves the public good while advancing sustainability goals. However, beyond the polished image of well-maintained buses, sleek trains, and promises of convenience, there lies a far more complicated and often troubling reality.  
    
  The public is frequently told that mass transit is the key to reducing traffic and lowering pollution, yet many systems fail to deliver on these promises. Trains break down, buses run late, and commuters find themselves packed into overcrowded vehicles, often feeling unsafe. Meanwhile, taxpayers pour billions into these systems, only to see fare increases, service cuts, and poorly maintained infrastructure. The question arises: If public transportation is supposed to be a solution, why does it so often feel like a problem?  
    
  Another significant issue is safety. Crime rates on buses, subways, and train platforms have become a growing concern, with riders facing theft, assault, and harassment. Many transit systems lack sufficient security measures, leaving passengers vulnerable. The psychological stress of commuting through unsafe environments can be overwhelming, particularly for women, the elderly, and other vulnerable populations. Despite these risks, officials frequently downplay crime statistics, insisting that public transit remains a safe option.

  More than a decade ago, counterterrorism expert Rita Katz began browsing white supremacist and neo-Nazi forums. The hateful rhetoric and constant threats of violence immediately reminded her of jihadist militants, but law enforcement and policy makers barely paid attention to the Far Right. Now, years of attacks committed by extremists radicalized online—including mass murders at a synagogue in Pittsburgh and mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, as well as the Capitol siege—have brought home the danger. How has the internet shaped today's threats, and what do the online origins of these movements reveal about how to stop them? 
   
   
   
  In Saints and Soldiers, Katz reveals a new generation of terrorist movements that don't just use the internet, but exist almost entirely on it. She provides a vivid view from the trenches, spanning edgy video game chat groups to mainstream social media platforms to what ISIS and Far-Right mass-shooters in El Paso, Orlando, and elsewhere unwittingly reveal between the lines of their manifestos. Katz shows how the online cultures of these movements create today's terrorists and shape how they commit "real world" violence. From ISIS to QAnon, Saints and Soldiers pinpoints the approaches needed for a new era in which arrests and military campaigns alone cannot stop these never-before-seen threats.
