I guess people really do want fascism. We talk about it like it’s an obviously-awful thing, but apparently most Americans disagree. Most people around the world seem to disagree, in fact. We laugh about the idiots voting for Trump, but far right lunatics are gaining positions of power all over the planet. It’s not just Fox News-fed Americans.
It feels like we’re building up to something catastrophic.
Fox News is a vestige of the 20th century. Social media is the 21st century Fox News. Everyone knows it’s bad but we have not reckoned with it. Everyone agrees it’s bad then everyone returns to scrolling their echo chamber.
Unfortunately the social media oligarchs side with Trump. We’re all fucked.
