1.5 years ago, I was editing an Office parody video in my parents attic. Now I've edited an @ArianaGrande music featured video seen by millions of people. What a humbling experience this is. Literal highlight of my career #RiftTour

So much of crummy politics is explained by our susceptibility to propaganda.

Our defenses to propaganda aren't natural: We have to build them.

Lots of those defenses are institutional, like real-time fact-checking or limiting the use of bots.

But they're also personal.[thread]
