Well, if you interpret radicalized to mean "have seen a real-world example of the benefits of federated social networks, perhaps real enough to shake the notoriously tech-apathetic public into doing something as easy as making an account somewhere else," then maybe it's a useful insight... unless, of course, nobody does anything.
Nobody does anything for awhile is the most likely result. But there's also a side effect of generating angst and resentment towards the establishment that'll get bottled up and pressurized waiting for the right opportunity to explosively release. An investment in radicalization so to speak. I think Trump is an example of that phenomenon.
