Over the last few months, we've talked about the weird obsession some people upset by the results of the election have had with the concept of "fake news." We warned that focusing on "fake news" as a problem was not just silly and pointless, but that it would quickly morph into calls for censorship. And, even worse, that censorship power would be in the hands of whoever got to define what "fake news" was.

Well, with the advent of the internet the geographical issues are less of a problem. We may live fat away, but now people can find common ground and fellow supporters more easily. It is a double edged sword, but I think it will work out in the long run. Hopefully we can skip the state vs. Nation bit and move on to some broad overarching world constitution that all nations can agree on. Then we move forward from there. The US can't even comprehend it at this point, but I think many other countries can.
