How does political extremism on social media progress from internet surfers, to campaigns, to elections, to the oval office? Do social media juggernauts like Facebook, Reddit, and others, have a responsibility to police or monitor their users who post extremist views? What is the impact of these sites and what is their influence on our society, our young people, and our voters? Andrew Marantz, a longtime contributor to The New Yorker, examines these issues in his critically important new book, Antisocial. Marantz investigates conspiracists, white supremacists, and once- fringe political players and traces their ascendance through their use of social media to drive their agenda all the way to the White House.
