>>2690738I agree tech in and of itself isnt bad, its a damn blessing. Ive lived and worked with amish/mennonite and plain people types and, as much as i enjoy imagining myself as some 1800s homesteader or injun remover cowboy, living like that is a huge PITA. Its doable, but requires a lot of sacrifice and grit, especially if you fuck up (you will fuck up everything at least once). I feel like i grew up at the best time to be able to deal with the weird modern world. I got to jack off to tomb raider but also go climb trees and bag squirrels with my bros. A big part is the breakdown of social cohesion lately, and the unexpected repercussions of the money-grab mindset of early social media. It will be interesting to see if the pendulum swings back the other way in the next few decades as the old guard dies off and more young people grow into positions of authority in our society.
