On the contrary, you can have a live example in the US today, and you could have found another one six years ago.

I think you would have a pretty hard time finding examples of this in somewhere like the US:
* Few things go from 'mainstream' to 'extreme' anywhere near that quickly.
* If something does make that transition, there would be hundreds of millions of people who previously held the view and millions of people who previously endorsed it publicly.
* People care about your current views, especially on topics where lots of people have changed their minds. In cases where I wrote about something and then later retracted it, I've never had anyone treat that as if I still hold my previous view.
