I support significant regulation, but it won't happen. But having a course like the one you took as well as media-literacy should be required middle-school education with a more sophisticated follow-up in high school. That also won't happen because then you don't get the people who vote for GOP pieces of shit. It's in their interest to have citizens who are easily manipulated.

My father said babies were being aborted basically when ready for birth. I said there's no way that was happening, said send me a link. One glance at the page and I didn't need to read the article because of the gimmicks all over plus obviously bogus ads. He had a doctorate of mech engineering, but he couldn't handle life on the internet. Typing this, I'm horrified to realize that I'm glad he passed when he did and didn't end up with ever-increasingly wacko beliefs that could have harmed our relationship.
