We at Twitchy usually try to stick to the blue-checkmark types who have some celebrity, but it was a retweet by actress Debra Messing that brought this tweet to our attention, and it’s garnered nearly 10,000 retweets in just a day.
In short: can spouses file a class-action lawsuit against Facebook for turning their spouses into alt-right crazies?

Any lawyers want to weigh in? Are we talking Facebook clickbait in general or memes promoted by Russian bots?

We’d always considered Facebook pretty solidly liberal. Isn’t the general consensus that Mark Zuckerberg is testing the waters for a 2020 Democratic run?

This thread is pure gold, you'd think these women were talking about their beloved's crippling alcoholism instead of mildly divergent political opinions https://t.co/FWdKZ0pOML

The Facebook scandal is turning into a rather predictable sci-fi plot where millions of people find their minds have been taken over by an alien force that said it was their friend. https://t.co/t6Z6jGiJ2F

Maybe your husband is waking up to the truth that CNN and MSNBC (among others) are a trashbin of lies and #FakeNews.

Some good advice:
There is something simple. Keep talking. Never stop talking with him.
Be respectful and listen to him.
State your views with arguments.
You will not during a debate change his mind. But over months, it will be harvest time.

What an awful situation to be in. I wish you strength. I’m curious if you also consider Fox News complicit in his transformation? Others I know like your husband started off being brainwashed by Fox and felt empowered and validated by Facebook.
