Maybe the internet is actually that terrible now, and Google is just the messenger?

The internet has been terrible since Yahoo dominated search.

In fact, it was the glut of SEO nonsense like keyword stuffing is that PageRank countered.

If Google search sucks, someone will make one that doesn’t suck, and people will switch.

Search still relies on content that doesn't suck though, and like GP said, if the internet today sucks, then the competing search will also suck.
The internet is fucking awesome, and has been for decades.
The profit incentive is for search to suck. Making it shitty is what brings in the money.
The internet is terrible and Google is the reason.
Ok everyone, enjoy your SEO spam
