Google has made some changes to try and tackle "fake news":
Google moved to strip from its news search results publications that mask their country of origin or intentionally mislead readers, a further step to curb the spread of fake news that has plagued internet companies this year.
To appear in Google News results, websites must meet broad criteria set out by the company, including accurately representing their owners or primary purposes. In an update to its guidelines released Friday, the search giant added language stipulating that publications not "engage in coordinated activity to mislead users." Additionally the new rules read: "This includes, but isn't limited to, sites that misrepresent or conceal their country of origin or are directed at users in another country under false premises."
A popular tactic for misinformation campaigns is to pose as a credible U.S. news outlet. Russian Internet Research Agency, a Kremlin-backed organization, used that technique to reach an audience of nearly 500,000 people, spread primarily through Twitter accounts, Bloomberg reported earlier.

Socialist: prefers heavy government control of the economy and of family life. This can be an intermediate step to a communist utopia (Marx) or a more long-term state (Hitler).
Globalist: prefers the reduction of national identity. This creates a race to the bottom for wages in developed countries, a violent clash of cultures, the loss of many cultures, a tiny class of superwealthy people, exploding population, and environmental destruction.

Hey, I’m a nationalist and a globalist. I’m both. And I’m the only one who makes the decision, believe me.
