As a nation, we are deeply divided along partisan political lines, so much so that what once passed for legitimate political debate and discourse has been diminished to the point that any dissent is characterized as a threat against democracy. Once, fact-based debates took place to ascertain the truth of a matter. Now, opposing parties embrace their own unique 'fact sets' which are derived more from political belief than reality, and anyone holding a different opinion is derided and condemned as a practitioner of 'disinformation.'
