@minx We do live in that era. The internet already provides access to more history, culture and knowledge than our ancestors could have dreamed of. People still mostly just watch cat videos.
Time to check back in.
@Thibaut @yogthos ^^This^^. Far as I can tell, most Millenials think socialism means universal healthcare and free college. Not public ownership of the means of production. They wan't America to be like Denmark, not Cuba.
Good god.
