SOMETHING TERRIBLE I'VE BEEN WORKING ON: I wrote about how history-themed Facebook groups have become havens for racism content https://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/social-media/2019/06/history-themed-facebook-groups-have-become-magnet-racist-content …
An interesting element of Facebook as a whole is that so few young people use it these days, which sort of turns it into a blogging platform for right-wing white boomers. That might explain how so many groups can descend to this with relative ease: https://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/social-media/2019/06/history-themed-facebook-groups-have-become-magnet-racist-content …
Often posts aren't explicitly using a slur or racist imagery, but the racism still, uh, jumps out https://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/social-media/2019/06/history-themed-facebook-groups-have-become-magnet-racist-content …pic.twitter.com/t6hngnnhdC
In passing, had a similar experience with a French history account on Twitter. There seemed to be a steady stream of posts endorsing Le Pen or expressing generalised hostility to Muslims mixed in with the architecture/history. Rapid Unfollow
It seems that they now communicate via WhatsApp groups and post pics on Instagram. Have noticed the young in my family rarely post these days it's mainly just to send congrats messages and to let family know what's going on
