This chapter explores how a seemingly innocent tweet from Sesame Street character Elmo sparked a wave of existential dread and sadness on Twitter. It also examines the impact of the merging of politics and celebrity on comedy, discussing the breakdown of the social fabric and its effect on people's ability to find humor.
Elmo asks the internet how everyone is doing, and the world explodes; the Biden White House unleashes the DOJ on pro-life activists for blocking an entrance to an abortion clinic; the Squad steps on every land mine in sight.
