Why do I continue to be so obsessed with issues of conspiracies, misinformation, and sense-making? I’ve mentioned that it has a lot to do with my two brothers who walked into a misinformation vortex a long time ago. I was going to say “fallen down” or “got sucked into,” but I’m not sure I agree with the lack of agency those phrases imply. I truly am not sure. I don’t think it happened entirely of their own volition, but neither do I think they are simply victims. Maybe “wandered into” works?
