I’m a socialist that grew up in the south watching my dad go from Rush Limbaugh to Fox News to Facebook MAGAdom. We went from debating policy in my teens, to debating reality in my 20s and 30s, and finally to me refusing to participate because I could see he was getting old.

That didn’t stop him from dying in an underfunded and rundown rural hospital with Fox News blaring on the TV in his room.
