One huge Yes! The other toxic sea. Wave after wave of information and unfortunately for decades coming from a Legacy Media carefully controlled so as present information as unsolvable problems, causing divisions in the general public. Pick a side, fight, fight, fight with no end in sight for it to end. Now following the Covid Censorships not generating the necessary pulling enough of the public into lockstep are flooding Social Media with not just too much information, but flooding with mis - dis - mal - information by paid for Trolls along with all the historical Legacy Media's usual suspects.

Along with what Midwestern Doctor shares here, is we are told Henry Ford invented the assembly line. Actually this is how most peoples have achieved what they have needed to be done to survive, to thrive. For those in the primitive human scaled tribal conditions, people coordinated, cooperated with those having different skillsets taking care of specific needs, yet all of them having some overlap and a working level of understanding of what each are doing, how they do it and Why it needs to be done.

When civilizations become more complex, the larger they become, the more lost awareness of what or why others tasks are involved. A malignant increasing lack of 'the other's'. Towers of Babble, average citizens unable to cross talk, compare notes, locked into myopic focus in their cubical, their floor, with little if any awareness of the other floors needs, so as all can run as smoothly as possible. Along with this the impulse to consolidate power, control by a Leader and a "Palace Court" begin to sow seeds of confusion, divide and conquer to shuttle more to follow more material wealth to generate even more of the same.

I don't know it all, because no one knows it all. We need our differences. Whether full loin cloth or 'civilized' we need our differences in order to address a larger range of understanding our environments. To potentially do better. When this gets lost, then all the former metrics, the symbols of what once was considered success become worn and tattered. Unless continually addressed to repair them, those become worn and threadbare until it can longer be denied the Emperor has no cloths, the Palace Court has become a self serving circus.
