I think we're just going to have to mature as a species. Social media and the internet have made it so that fringe opinions and mis/disinformation win in the minds of people because they win the algorithms. Until companies act responsibly and stop the "engage, enrage, and entertain" model of informing people, we'll continue to have this problem.

Then again, we've always had antivaccine people, raw milk drinkers, and flat earthers, so... So maybe we're screwed.

I hope not.
