Well, I mean, no one can tell the difference anymore between what's real and what's fake.

They won't know whether to believe it or not.- X Files: Lost art of Forehead Sweat A gun is a tool, Marion, no better or no worse than any other tool, an axe, a shovel or anything.

Railroads used to have towers and analog switches to keep trains for hitting each other, along with many trained tower operators. Today most of tye towers and their operators are gone, replaces with sensors and digital switches. If the Internet goes away, the trains collide or don't run. Understand Internet means far more than just Facebook. It means our infrastructure fails, and we die. |

User ID: 80117407 United States10/04/2022 01:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The internet died under Obama. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 84181513 We're left with surveillance that they call the internet. The internet actually died when it went form being many independent sites and online communities that had their own integrated chat to being consolidated into the twitter/facebook sphere. Meta and corporations commercializing the net killed it, the click began to drive the content; the tail wagging the dog. Things were a lot more organic and grass root back in the day.
