The Internet Age
In the internet age, we have never seen a time when so much information is available and yet everything must be scrutinized so much because there is a portion of the populace that will believe anything they read on the internet as long as it fits their pre-existing mindframe condition.
How can we break free? Fact-checking seems to do a decent job of debunking, but it's only available to those who know it is needed; and furthermore, it's worth noting that fact-checking organizations (depending on their affiliation) could just as well be "in on the game."
We must demand better.
