in the olden days we used to just take our anger out on each other in the arena of semi-anonymous computer debate (sometimes brief irl shouting matches, but, albeit from a distance, i never saw anyone get injured), and no bit of a person sans their ego was seriously harmed

now? i don't even recognize this country. repeating things you could find in a book for rent at a public library in the late 80s or early 90s will get you seriously injured or even killed

but we're well beyond that now into proper third world stuff where, even though we have this beautiful and largely harmless if used in good faith pressure release valve called the internet to work these things out on, the social war's effects on peoples' lives and livelihoods are only accelerating and usually with *actual* centrists and moderates (not just token resistance or controlled opposition) being the first to be taken out or maimed or what have you

but the territory in between the tip-feathers on these wings is becoming a corroded, mine-pocked, crater-scarred wasteland
