I suspect 3 and 10 - the internet is more accessible to the masses and rather than becoming smarter when information was more available they mept their same patterns and they communicate more over it which makes it easier to notice when they were confined to say doing stupid stunts or staging innane protests for stupid causes. Remember when Jackass and Reality TV were considered the downfall of civilization? (Although there some may half-seriously blame Trump on the latter it is a matter of debate of how much he is considered a symptom vs a problem in himself.)
