    1. I believe that disinformation will always cause problems regardless of whether it is from the other side of the world, but I also believe that thanks to informational globalization it will be easier to deny fake news.

  2. In point number 3, although I agree with you, do you believe that the inclusion of different nationalities into the workplace might have cultural undertones?

    1. I think yes. Cultures can become very different from each other, so a work environment where many cultures coexist will always be under problems, so as a society we must learn to be empathetic to each other.

    1. And it is. I really like Asian culture and I consider that something that I have changed thanks to them has been eating with chopsticks instead of a fork or being distant when greeting someone.

    1. I believe that Disney has managed to reach the hearts of different cultures, that has made it increasingly expand its borders and that people feel identified with its brand. I consider that this company has been a giant in globalization.
