To begin with, this is your president. This ought to be one of the most shameful things ever said by a sitting president.

Facebook swayed the presidential election — but he acknowledged that the social networking site has work to do when it comes to hoaxes on the platform.
The Facebook CEO wrote a post on his page Saturday regarding the site’s role in this year’s election after people began blaming Facebook for allowing fake news to be distributed on the site, perhaps contributing to Donald Trump’s surprising victory.
“Personally, I think the idea that fake news on Facebook, it’s a very small amount of the content, influenced the election in any way is a pretty crazy idea,” he said.
But after continued backlash, Zuckerberg took to Facebook to share his thoughts on the site’s role in disseminating news, writing that the company will “continue to work on this to improve further” but must do so cautiously in order to avoid bias. Identifying what’s true and what’s not is “complicated,” he said, and even mainstream news can get it wrong sometimes.
The 2016 presidential campaign is finally, mercifully, nearing its completion, but there’s still time for a little more absurdity. Comet Ping Pong, a pizzeria in the Washington DC neighborhood of Chevy Chase, is much more than a pizzeria. It’s the center of a Clinton-operated sex ring, according to alt-right conspiracy theorists on Reddit, 4Chan, and across the rest of the internet.
The title of the article is “Internet Crazies Think this DC Pizzeria Is The Center Of A Clinton Sex Ring.” Crazy, you are. Not just that, you’re an internet crazy. I suppose that’s worse, but I’m not sure.
Of course, there is this with which to contend. One might ask what kind of “family friendly” pizzeria (as it’s advertised) has drag shows (Caution: NSFW).
And remember that Mark Zuckerberg wants to figure out what’s true and fake news so they can censor it from Facebook. I no longer have a Facebook account, having deleted it long ago.
