I completely agree. It's shameful that we let stuff like Breitbart slip right under the radar long enough for them to get Trump elected. I'm glad that many major social media sites are finally realizing their responsibility and fact checking this nonsense at the door.
All I can add is stuff like Breitbart reaches to a different subset of the population than stuff like "The Mind Unleashed". The latter tends to hold more sway with liberal crazies. You know, the "double rainbow" sort who see some natural phenomenon and can only think to ask "what does it MEAN?". They don't mean "what causes this?" but rather "what spiritual lesson is the diffraction of light trying to teach me?". It's that latter group that led to the modern vaccine crisis and cell phone scares, and it has it's own cost to society if left unchecked.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
