In a perfect world a good government would be heavily regulating social media to prevent disinformation.
I continue to say when I was a kid you could all go to the local bar and there was Dale drunk going on about his insane shit and we could all ignore it. Now Dale is online with all the other Dales and they're crazy but they're not dumb and they found out how to weaponize their insanity.
Sigh.
Best we can do is educate our kids my daughter has friends who have anti-vax parents. Mine are not and I do my best to educate other kids when here. I don't undercut their parents. I simply try to provide them with the facts and the hope is, the long game they will get smart.
