Thinking about ways the right-wing lie-o-sphere has sucked in people who were historically allies of the left.

- Feminists pulled into anti-trans bigotry and reactionary politics by making up "cross-dressing predators in women's bathroom" stories.
- Hippie types sucked in by "natural medicine" and anti-GMO stuff and funneled through the antivax conspiracy pipeline.
- Young lonely video game nerds sucked into "Alpha Male" bullshit like Andrew Tate.
- Stoners and Joe Rogan.

What'd I miss?
