Bias.

It affects everything.

Science, religion, politics, public policy, company policy, policing, the judiciary, journalism, and (any)one's decision-making regarding 'facts'.

Not sure how we're going to solve it on a platform like Facebook.

The systems governing over it - government and politics - are not going so well in the bias department themselves.

As for 'the people', they're just as biased. In fact, that's where it comes from. The problem is humans, not the technology.

Even though I have low regard for them, sometimes I realise Facebook is doing the hardest job in the world.
