New Yorker journalist Andrew Marantz explains how the alt-right memed its way into the mainstream, swung an election, and changed the rules of the American conversation.
Andrew Marantz crafts narrative journalism exploring politics, the internet, and our understanding of the world. His central fascination lies not in specific subjects, but in how people form beliefs and under what conditions those beliefs can evolve for the better. He deeply investigates the perils of virality, the myth of linear progress, and the American far-right, focusing on how extremists leverage social media to advance their corrosive agendas. Marantz's work sheds critical light on the complexities of belief formation and the impact of online culture on society.
