A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice A New York Times Notable Book of 2019 From a rising star at The New Yorker, a deeply immersive chronicle of how the optimistic entrepreneurs of Silicon Valley set out to create a free and democratic internet--and how the cynical propagandists of the alt-right exploited that freedom to propel the extreme into the mainstream.

Summary of Andrew Marantz's Antisocial
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The DeploraBall was a party and a media spectacle. It was a mix of both fans and media crews. Fairbanks was dressed not for the people in the room but for the fans at home. #2 The DeploraBall was an independent pre-inauguration party hosted by and for the internet trolls and ultranationalists who had memed Donald Trump into the White House. The event took place at the National Press Club, in downtown D. C. #3 Fairbanks was a political correspondent for Sputnik, an international news agency owned and operated by the Russian government. She was also a frequent contributor to left-wing clickbait sites such as US Uncut and Addicting Info. #4 The New Yorker was associated with monocled snobbery and Waspy wealth. The magazine was also center-left, and its corporate ownership was criticized by some people.
Harry Potter and Resistance
Although rule breaking in Harry Potter is sometimes dismissed as a distraction from Harry’s fight against Lord Voldemort, Harry Potter and Resistance makes the case that it is central to the battle against evil. Far beyond youthful hijinks or adolescent defiance, Harry’s rebellion aims to overcome problems deeper and more widespread than a single malevolent wizard. Harry and his allies engage in a resistance movement against the corruption of the Ministry of Magic as well as against the racist social norms that gave rise to Voldemort in the first place. Dumbledore’s Army and the Order of the Phoenix employ methods echoing those utilized by World War II resistance fighters and by the U.S. Civil Rights movement. The aim of this book is to explore issues that speak to our era of heightened political awareness and resistance to intolerance. Its interdisciplinary approach draws on political science, psychology, philosophy, history, race studies, and women’s studies, as well as newer interdisciplinary fields such as resistance studies, disgust studies, and creativity studies.
