isn't that funny

i can understand that. my husband is intermittently banned from watching the news for that reason. it is easy to tell when he's been on it too much because he will unthinkingly slip in uncomfortable and disagreeable things. the thoughtless parroting of dangerous ideas and expressions are a problem that comes with consuming for-profit media that is based around making people unhappy and unable to reason


assuredly the young are just as vulnerable to such things with the only real difference being that younger people have a wider pool of peers and so get called out on problematic behavior more readily, i've made effort to call out these things when i see it in my family and it makes a difference. vigilance is important when predators wish to take advantage of the unwary and access to people who will keep you in check helps out

without the full story i cannot say it is the best idea but i would recommend finding things for him to do outside of news media even if it is not pleasant at first. give him opportunities to get a breath of clean air sometimes so his head can be cleared
