If your point is a philosophical one about the nature of knowledge then we have gone far afield of the comment you were responding to. The leader of Breitbart has publicly announced a strategy to change the United States' political and governmental norms. He is now arguably the most powerful figure in the Trump administration, which has already begun pursuing that strategy. Breitbart's actions in other countries are consistent with that strategy. True, maybe the deepest motive for Bannon's stated strategy is that he wants to angrily reject his father's scorn and through world domination (or at least world destabilization) finally earn his love and thus be able to love himself. But that's not really the subject at hand. "Fake News" is just rebranded propaganda. Systematically trying to convince the public of lies is bad, regardless of motive. But we can also see clearly the first order motives of the people behind most of this current wave of propaganda even if we can't follow a chain of causality back to the deepest motives of human nature.
