I want the 5 minutes back that I spent skimming over an article that was meant to showcase someone’s research on McCarthy and history around the 1950’s.
For that matter, maybe we stop platforming the dumb takes from social media influencers, people who have absolutely no power other than careers in saying inflammatory bullshit hoping a major outlet will pick it up and get more people angry. This attention-bait economy is thrusting actual clowns and nazis right into the seat of power because we live in a world where if you say something atrocious and enough people hear it, you get money or even seats in government.
