I read a smart thing about marking up vile things before reposting them, so the brain is signaled before reading and we aren’t normalizing them by giving them more oxygen. So, something like this, from me with no particular online skills? Tips for better marking?

Undocumented Immigrants mostly rent their residences from corporate landlords who buy up homes on the market and drive up prices for everyone.
