Then again, the whole power of words is on clear display in this election, the brexit vote, and so on and so on. The internet was supposed to be the great freedom enabler, instead it's turned into the great media sheep show, where a meme, a soundbite, a misleading headline, clickbait, spoof news, and 1000 other things get planted in the lazy people's mind, to remain forever as 'fact'. What a sorry state of affairs 'learning' and 'knowledge' has become. Easier than ever to mould, manipulate, twist, hype up, and steer the masses in the direction the .01% want to herd them, regardless of your team.
