Is There Really a Conspiracy?

I tend to retreat, because i know that they're really not willing to be persuaded. And when some one says fake news it, it is quite genius in its creation. This is maybe my y optimistic streak shining through, but i wonder about how some of the principles that i, that i found useful in other areas, would work in world. Is there reality is the key yes? Is there any opportunity there? Or is it an uphill battle?
