How to guide teenagers through social media outrage culture

My teenage kids are constantly showing me inflammatory content from Twitter and TikTok expecting me to be as outraged as they are and when I try to add nuance or suggest stepping back they accuse me of not caring about important issues and I don't know how to model healthy engagement without seeming dismissive.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Parents trying to teach discernment about inflammatory content while validating their children's genuine concerns about injustice.
