I don't think much has changed, what has changed is we now have the Internet and technology, enabling the ideas and information to be heard.



>> Reading this thread demonstrate to me why we (as a society, no matter where you're living) can't live together as we've been doing anymore. The ideas are colliding in too many areas and all of them look like a rat trap. Something hostile in human behavior we are unable to remove is deeply rotten and who knows how we can fix it. This are sad (but non desperate) times to live.

IRL interaction put breaks on a lot things that online interaction has now removed.
