It's called Douthat Chat Natalists Only. I want to be clear that's an ironic name. I'm not a political natalist or anything, though I have to admit this is one of two Ross Douthat group chats I'm even aware of. There's another one called The Falcon's Children, which is named after Ross's fantasy series. It sounds like I have a really disordered relationship to Ross Douthat.
I want to be clear, this is very common for millennials to have group chats about Ross Douthat.

I'm also in a group chat with three former co-workers called The Executive Team, where we just pretend to be hustle-minded entrepreneurs and send each other motivational memes and quotes. And I find this group a little upsetting because I know the other three members of this group are in a group called the Giggle Kids that I'm not allowed to be in.

I think every group chat has an equal number of group chats. That is everybody in the group chat except for one person.

It's a good question. So for most of, I would say, the history of the kind of social internet that we all grew up on, starting with Facebook and before it, MySpace, most of the social networks and a lot of what you would do socially online was organized around the term of art as a social graph. It was organized around networks of connections that you made in real life.

And you maintained a profile where you also had all those other connections. And you would post things online.
