I think the opposite can be said too. t's pushed society forward in so many great places as well.
I'm not saying there should be no internet. I am only saying maybe some restraint would be advantageous for everyone.
Everything evolves as a wave of extremes and eventually finds some sort of equilibrium, trying to contain that is a fool's errand.
Sounds like your own personal philosophy
Or a new normal... paved roads and cars in the US was once pretty extreme, until it became normal. Did you be it's grownup and tell it to go to bed on time, did you make a futile effort to stunt its growth or did you roll over. Story of the frog in boiling water.
Ever notice how some roads aren't paved?
I agree.
Nah
Ok... good talk.
Why are you responding to me on the internet?
.... why don't you have reading comprehension?
Maybe it's the Internet. You should show some "restraint".
Wtf are you even on about now? Go head explain.
because Reductio ad absurdum is easier than confronting hard truths they don't want to accept and possibly risk firing off a dreadful thing called a "thought" in that inert mass of jello they call a brain.
You can say it directly next time.
