THERE is a recurring theme in liberal thought — seeing some dark and nasty ideas in circulation, then blaming this on social media.
Somehow, the same ideas circulating in mainstream media, with solid backing from “respectable” voices, get missed. So obscure social media figures called “@TallDave100” get singled out as the voice of evil, while pundits with a place on BBC talk shows or columns in the Times can say exactly the same thing with more authority and be indulged by the “commentariat.”
Take, for example, the Great Replacement theory. This is what the New York Times describes as “a racist and misogynistic conspiracy theory that holds that white people face existential decline, even extinction, because of rising immigration in the West and falling birth rates among white women.”
