The Guardian is trying to understand how people are consuming news during the general election – and the role that WhatsApp is playing.
How are you experiencing the election through the messaging app? Has your family or friends WhatsApp groups being overrun by politics? Are you mainly in agreement or are your friendships being tested by political bickering in your group chat? Are you being overwhelmed with memes and video clips?
Is there one particular thing that keeps being mentioned? Are you finding the politics chat annoying or distracting – or helpful? Is there discourse or discord – perhaps you have had to impose rules to try to stop people arguing? Or one family member of friend is sharing political content you don’t agree with?
