    I read Doppelgänger by Naomi Klein earlier this year. She proposes that conspiracy theorist right-wingers feelings that the system has failed them has some merit, but that they’ve completely misunderstood who that is. It’s not vaccine scientists or diverse communities. It’s social media magnates, exploitative capitalism and corrupt politics. I guess when you’re full of prejudice you have to do lots of mental gymnastics to make your world view fit your bigotry.
