I was so naive with regard to police body cameras. When they started being used, I actually thought “well now we can see what a good job the police are doing.” Boy was I fucking wrong. I’ve learned a lot since then about corruption, systematic racism, planted evidence, and abuse of power in general. They have really changed my views to see the real police.
Remember webrings? You would find webpage you liked and they would have webring links to similar sites the author found and liked. It was pretty basic but it worked.
This was very well explained. Thank you for posting.
I think the base knowledge inthe past was much closer to primary sources. If you wanted to know something about science, you went to the library and read a book by an actual expert. You didn’t have some youtube dumbass between you and the knowledge.
Also - you didnt mention magazines. Thats how people often learned to fix things or were exposed to popular culture. Magazines like Popular Science or Family Handyman would have articles on fixing things in daily life. Automotive manuals like Haynes (worse) or Chiltons (better) were available at libraries as well.
I cant prove it but i have also noticed that fruits only taste sweet. They used to have other flavors in there but now its just like a spoon of sugar.
