The internet seemed world changing when we were all young and naive youths. The adults at the time gave solid advice, you have no idea who these people are, don't pay attention to what they say. The internet is the home to crazies and so on. But I didn't want to listen to any of it.

Now at the age of 40, I am basically just repeating the advice from the adults of my youth only for the current generation to ignore it and repeat the same mistakes. The internet doesn't provide that much benefit to people who are already struggling in life. People who claimed the internet changed their life for the better likely would've just found success in another way if it didn't exist.

If the internet is anything, it is just an accelerator. An accelerator to help chads be more chaddish and for losers to get bullied even more. Or if you are a recluse, it helps you seclude yourself to the extreme.
