Local is a relative term. It is contingent upon a point of reference. Your backyard, home town, region, and nation-state. It is a matter of drawing a distinction. Turn around from the nation-state conglomeration, and you get the global/international. Terms can also be nested in one another, ie Pizzagate is a part of the larger network of Pedogate. Everything is connected eventually, but the mind needs to draw lines or it gets overwhelming. What will happen when we determine there is an external, off planet contingent manipulating Pedogate? New term, new reference point.
