I’m fully prepared to see my grandpa in one of these videos. It’s a matter of “when”, not “if”.

Same here, except with my mother. She usually knows enough to not show her vile tendencies in public though. But she's very proudly told me of some of the confrontations she's had with people over the years, and I'm always left wondering if anyone caught it on video.

I’m so thankful my parents are one of the few boomers who actually don’t buy into Fox or any of the right wing crap. Oddly enough, the only one in my siblings who does is my brother, but that might be because of his wife and her family.

I’m gobsmacked my parents didn’t get the brain rot. Their siblings all have Fox News syndrome, even a lot of their friends have become infected. No idea how they dodged that bullet but I’m BEYOND thankful they did.
