We can't go back in time because that would be... ridiculous. We are transitioning, albeit very slowly, from a time when society has fully and enthusiastically embraced constant information and access to whatever and whenever into a time where we have begun to see the damage that can be done when media tactics are employed that hold people apart. We have yet to recognize, as the whole of us as a people, the divisions that have been created and taken advantage of by those who could care less about who gets hurt or what institutions get bruised in the process. One day, people will have concluded this point in our history to be influenced to the extreme by false narratives and propaganda the likes never before seen in human history. Markets will one day open up that will teach people young and old how to balance the constancy of information with the business of being alive and expressing that openly and without an agenda. People will learn to have fun again without the fear of being mugged, raped or shot... which is much of what is written into our favorite tv programs and movies. I am looking to the world of art and something great to happen in that arena to maybe spur an interest toward our welcoming nature as human beings.... welcoming mostly to our individual selves where the main battles are currently taking place.
