The Baffler "Twilight of the Racist Uncles"
https://thebaffler.com/latest/tw…"Lamenting our older relatives’ journey down the rabbit hole of right-wing paranoia and vituperation feels, at times, like my generation’s version of having the big talk about putting Nana in a nursing home. “Losing a parent” has dual meanings for us after 2016. We’re dealing with the loss of people who are very much alive—but who have become such chaotic stews of anger, persecution complexes, racism, and half-assed conspiracy theories that they can no longer hold a normal conversation."
Wonder if their is an opportunity here for a social media audit consultancy that would examine a stretch of ones timeline and breakdown what they are actually being exposed to? Does that already exist?
