The world of online conspiracy theorists is daunting and bewildering. The BBC’s Marianna Spring knows that better than most. In today’s Bunker, Ros Taylor sits down with the disinformation and social media correspondent to discuss her new book Among the Trolls: My Journey Through Conspiracyland.
• “The internet normalises aggression and abuse and that is reflected in the real world too.” – Marianna Spring
• “In the absence of religion or local communities, people turn to the internet for that sense of meaning and purpose.” – Marianna Spring
