Something has changed in the last 10 years. I'm sure this was always there, but. I used to see people get ripped and shredded in comments sections for racist etc. commentary. Now it seems like the norm. I'd blame Trump & crew, but I suspect his rise is as much a symptom as a cause. The other day I got fed a mattress ad in my Facebook feed, and it featured a mixed race couple relaxing together on a bed. The comments were just full of some of the most outright vile content I'd ever seen, and I'm not young. Full-on neo-Nazi stuff. I made the mistake of calling someone on their crap, and got threatened, person went through my profile snapping public pics, etc. etc. it was just insane. I just... despair :(
