      Whether Russia tipped the election or not, it's interesting to realize social media offers a way to influence other countries' elections.

      Eliminating fake news is a matter of national security, not just an administrative problem for Facebook.

          platform filters are not the answer. Educating people to be able to think critically and determine what is legitimate is.

          improving education is absolutely necessary, but it takes generations. See the KKK, white nationalism, etc.

          I'm just concerned censoring out what a subgroup thinks is "fake news" will just exacerbate the problem.

          grouping is the problem 😞 The need to identify with a certain type of media rather than all media is detrimental.

          education isn't a topic in political campaigns during election years. Education should *always* be a major point.

          We're all generally "laissez faire" about education rather than aggressively wanting to improve it and this is what happens.

          Eliminating #freespeech is a matter of national security? "Fake news" always&everywhere = opinionated subjective description.
