To be honest I loved it more back in the "old days". The barrier of entry to sharing your mind with the world was so much higher - you had to be on the TV, radio or at least a newspaper or a book to do that. Even with the advent of the Internet the barrier was still high - you had to set up your website or blog page, which was a fairly technical endeavor for some time.
Now every god damn idiot can have a Twitter page or a Facebook echo chamber group and easily spread their bullshit there. Yeah, I wouldn't mind going back to that era you mention.
- DaltonCoffee 5y agoYou might have liked it even better in the "older old days" when only the enlightened aristocracy had free speech, and speaking out against them was a crime.
