She’s almost 70, spend all day watching q-anon style of videos (but in Spanish) and every day she’s anguished about something new, last week was asking us to start digging a nuclear shelter because Russia was dropped a nuclear bomb over Ukraine. Before that she was begging us to install reinforced doors because the indigenous population were about to invade the cities and kill everyone with poisonous arrows. I have access to her YouTube account and I’m trying to unsubscribe and report the videos, but the reccomended videos keep feeding her more crazy shit.

      If she wasn’t a cognitively declining 70 something year old, I would agree with you. When people get older their minds revert more to a childlike understanding of the world. Would you let a child look at whatever they want to on the internet?

        I can see this so clearly with my dad. He is reverting to a toddler state. Whining about everything and everyone. Shouting, screaming and being unreasonable at every turn. Both my parents entertainment feed is filled with animated stuff mainly targeted to children. At least they are not in to destructive stuff, like ops grandma.
