i was thinking about something similar last night: that what we call "news" is obsolete. this narration of human-social-events. we have the tech to observe the world as it is, and if something interesting happens, save that. like, the only important news is scientific discovery. read about an experiment that someone did and what was proved or disproved or gained by that experiment. watch a video of the experiment, look at the data, whatever. idk, there is an ideal state of affairs that i'm thinking of where "geopolitics" isn't really a thing, because we no longer find the concept of a "country" useful, because we've established an optimal method of resource allocation and distribution. but that would only really happen once everyone becomes enlightened i guess.
