We disagree. In the past, I could go to a store and talk to an honest knowledgeable sales person to painlessly make a purchase. I could travel to other countries that actually had different cultures, unlike the modern monoculture that now dominates the world. I have always found video games to be stupid and useless but I enjoyed playing chess and Go when I was younger.

I never liked television, but I read many books which I loved, easily gotten at the public library. And there were people to talk to back then before everyone became a moron. Now there is almost no one worth talking to.
