NO SOCIAL MEDIA. I belive that Facebook has made the collective humanity a lot stupider. Groupthink, sheeple, influencers, contrails conspiracies...
We had social media, it just wasn't cancerous like Facebook. It was more fun like MySpace, forums, blogs, IRC, etc.
What we didn't have was algorithmic social media. That needs to a die a fiery death in the depths of hell.
If it were up to me, algorithmic curation and promotion based on viewership history would be outright illegal.
