Post this in Nextdoor and at least three people will talk seriously about “chemtrails”.

Or, maybe that’s just my neighborhood.

EDIT: So, I open Nextdoor and find this as the top post. Neighbor posted about “suspicious haze” and “chemtrails”, can’t make this shit up:

I think things like that are a prerequisite for Nextdoor

Nextdoor is quite often the trailerpark of social media. Anyone walking or driving through the neighborhood is suspicious. Every comment chain winds up with at least one “praise jesus” nut who spams flowers and cross emoji “art” in their reply. Any loud noise is gunfire, a bomb, terrorists, follwed by “praise trump”, “praise jesus” and racist comments.

Any comment is subject to random injection of misogyny, right wing politics, racism (direct or implied) conspiracies, and liberal bashing regardless of the subject.

The worst is that lately it keeps turning notifications back on. So I’ll go a year without hearing anything from Nextdoor, an account I haven’t logged-in to since before the pandemic, and then all of a sudden out of fucking nowhere I’m getting a dozen emails about gunshots and all this other stuff miles away on like the 3rd of July or December 30th… when it’s definitely not gunshots.
