Fake news has supplanted real news
Alternative facts have supplanted real facts
Streamed news/information has created noise that has diluted important news
Selective data has supplanted material data
Media personalities and influencers have supplanted journalists
Memes have supplanted discourse
Bluster and rhetoric have supplanted reason

The Trumpian ecosystem has fully employed this and perfected it, but the traditionally left-of-center are doing it too (albeit to a far lesser extent, and fewer outright lies, more information selectivity). E.g. In the UK, the Brexit campaign was shown to have created 8x as many misleading or lying political advertisements as the opposition. Facebook is just a cesspool of alt right BS memes against imagined villains.

I don’t see a way out of this...
