Elle Reeve's new 2024 book Black Pill: How I Witnessed the Darkest Corners of the Internet Come to Life, Poison Society, and Capture American Politics (Atria/ Simon and Schuster) is remarkably readable -- but it is not pleasant reading. It's about the darkest corners of the internet where the alt-right ruled. Reeve profiles certain alt-right leaders such as Richard Spencer, Chris Cantwell, Matthew Heimbach, and Matt Parrot.
