That explains quite a bit. So many of us thought that the internet was going to change society for the better. Instead, society changed the internet for the worse.

The internet simply became a better mirror. It becomes more human every day. This is what humanity actually looks like on a larger scale.

Now that we can see ourselves at a scale we've never been able, we have an opportunity to make adjustments at scale, which is a process that takes generations.

Humanity has and will continue to be the downfall of many a grand vision.
