RE: 'Fake News' Round-Two as Facebook, Google and French Media Team Up for Presidential Election

Sheesh, it just gets weirder and weirder.

It's so hard to trust things. I don't trust either side of that story. Nationalistic stuff is just as bad as globalism. Both are authoritarian concepts, which impose themselves on the people.

I just wanna curl up in a blanket, and forget about the big, bad world outside.

It's all so foul and vapid.

Sort:  

The more you know, the less you realize you know. I hear you...that blanket sounds pretty good right about now. The only sweeping social statement I can give any love to is the Indigenous Americans that are trying to shine a light on where/how/why our society has become so fragmented, and how we can take action to start healing that division. Seeing Elders on the front line at Standing Rock pray for militant soldiers and wish them love even as they're being maced and bombarded with concussion grenades makes me simultaneously swell with gratitude and shiver in revulsion. It's dark as hell out there right now. But there are great, powerful peaceful people still setting the example, so I take heart.
