I very vividly recall sometime in mid 1996 or so when the worldwide web was first becoming a thing and e-commerce was in its infancy. I thought how much better the world was going to be because people would have access to all the ideas. They'd no longer be isolated in their little tribes where they could be racist and hateful.

Wow, did humanity ever prove me wrong with its ability to generate protective bubbles around itself.
