It’s a video about why the Internet and society itself is so divided nowadays.

      Unless the solution was in the Ground News ad section, then they didn’t. All they said in the “Something More Positive” was going back to the internet 20 years ago, which is not a solution…

        So you think their offered solution is unworkable? That’s different than them not having offered one - maybe you could say more about that?

          Solution requires a resolution. Unless you have a time machine, that’s not a solution. We can’t go back in time.

              There are plenty of solutions to improve the situation or change the direction, reversal is not possible. Neither from technological side nor societal side.

                  It’s the Bilboa Bagging effect. It’s yearning for a time that no longer exists. Both because you’ve grown and changed and the world has grown and changed. You’ll never capture that again. And maybe it wasn’t even the way you are remembering it in the first place.

                  At best you could attempt to replicate it with all of the new tech, people, and social norms but there isn’t “reset the clock 20 years”. Thats a lazy copout and hardly a solution. Why not just say “everyone just needs to be better”?

        They did offer the solution to break off into smaller subsets instead of shouting your opinion into the void so it can be heard by the entire world.

        How that is achieved is more complicated and depends on the person.
