It is no longer surprising. What I learned recently that it is no longer about a difference of opinion. There is no opinion, it is just herd behavior. Reality does not matter, facts are subject to beliefs.
Unfortunately, individually, we are too small and insignificant to change it. I wonder if there isn't already too late for organized resistance against fact bending (I purposefully don't want to use term "fake news").
