I don't talk with my mom too often but she'll email me the most horrific reactionary comedy central comedian stand-ups. I don't even know how to respond to the latest, they were usually just problematic but the most recent one is just a straight up fascist creating a "class" out of nothing, insulting it, and dividing it from every other imaginary class he can come up with.
It makes me feel really sad sometimes. I made it very clear that we hated fox and wouldn't let her have it on the TV while visiting her but the last time I mentioned it she said she doesn't watch them anymore anyways - it's OAN all the way. Someone else mentioned it below and I hadn't really noticed it before but, if she's away from the TV, tablet, or phone for too long she does seem to get fidgety and agitated.
I sometimes wish I had spoken up sooner about it to her. I doubt it would have stopped her but maybe it would have slowed the descent, or I could at least absolve myself of a little bit more of the guilt.
