Contributions of the Internet to Humanity

Post by Holsety »

Not porn.

Guy #1: The internet's greatest contribution to humanity is that it creates a community with in some ways unparalleled anonymity. This creates a situation in which a great deal of selfish motives are stripped away. In its place is a world of discussion in which one's power to challenge and destroy the ideology of others regarding their place in the world and place in the world of others, and yet at the same time to put one's own ideology regarding the world in which their place is found and the place others have in the world at unparalleled risk.

Guy #2: I disagree. This is nothing new. From the beginning of time, people have been anonymous for no one can ever really be known; as a result, the internet has contributed nothing new to humanity, at least not that you have posited.

Guy #1: How stupid are you? You fell right into my trap card. I anticipated your argument, and instead of actually constructing an argument, I have a video which utterly demolishes your argument regarding the idea that people can never really be known, and that the internet has contributed nothing to humanity. Even more humiliating is that anyone reading this argument will be aware of it.

Guy #2: I'm not going to give this argument up until I hurt you. Show me the video.

Guy #1: Here you go!
