This explains a lot about our current situation....

19. yes he totally misses some of the most momentous changes

He was not alive to see the erosion of the systems that had a lock on information and its dissemination. Yes, a lot of this is "the internet" and how it has become the source of information. Information that is accessible, instant - but yes subject to abuse etc.

What we are seeing right now is every "institution" losing it's grasp on "the narrative". It's not just fake news, or lack of trust, it's the fundamental change in what we know.

Think of EVERY "institution" and how they have become "diminished" in terms of how they are revered. These are social control structures for better or worse and they are being dismantled.

Religion - scandals, realization of what is fake and real
Academic - scandals, cheating, etc
Corporation - money over everything
Political - corruption
Medical - profits over people, bad science, mistrust, etc

This is really interesting - if you have an open mind to really look at what's happening.
