I Remember Life Before the Internet

Back when everyone wasn't :

Angry teenagers mad at anything that moves.

Women who want to screw the entire population of Mumbai.

Tide eating heroin slamming bath salts drinking freaks.

Communist sympathizers.

And suicidal coffee drinking musicians.

DAMN I MISS THEM DAYS. 😆

At least back when those people couldn't congregate

As we're sitting in a place where people with crazy opinions are able to congregate.

Damn. Lol

I actually agree, at least partially, with you. It was nice not to know that there were so many of any number of types of people.

I remember somebody said the internet (might have been Facebook... It was a comedian) exists to make privacy "uncool"

@ApollyonMagnus yeah.. You're actually making me nostalgic for the times when you could look at someone without immediately trying to size them up as a "beta" "chad" "conservative" "liberal" etc etc etc....

It's hard to show in writing but I'm not being sarcastic. The internet has helped us in a lot of ways, but there is a real downside

proud to be a "freak" these days. You wouldn't know it if you met me in my day to day life, I don't project it.

@ApollyonMagnus I am an agent of chaos. Chaos is not a bad thing. The Schemers are the problem. The Joker had that much right- even though he's not a role model.

1. 1 step forward,2 steps backward.

When we did not know others opinion, we did not know how they thought. They had their thoughts, were they really any different to now.
We have the means to know "now".

The difference is the tools humans use. From stone, when used stones, we used them on our tribes closet to us. To get our food.

Now we get food from the store, and belt up our neighborhood with words.

Humans have always feared strangers, over food, dwelling.
We use different tools as modern human, as we still fear.

Some harness cooperation, as to combine saves time.
