Do you think people would open their eyes and become more neighborly? Would it free people to actually talk to their friends, go to actual events in person? Or is everyone already entrenched too far?

And yes its ironic im posting this online. However I like to think of how the world would react if we could disable the internet for a few months. Besides the chaos of banking and airlines, I think it would be a net positive on humanity.

Until then, ill go back to being mostly disconnected on weekends. Its great.

      True.

      The good news is any of us can disconnect at any time. Maybe I should have titled the post, what if we destroyed toxic social media, that seems like the actual problem.
