Interwebz, cars, tv, computer, VR, phones, pennecillin

I hope we were nice to the alien survivors and fed them all they can eat Reese's Pieces.

Religious leaders killed scientists who posed a threat to their control over the masses.

Any time a leader wants the masses to remain dumb, you know they have evil intentions.

Do you know, 25 years ago, I'd have to go to the British library, make an appointment and give them exact details of the book, to have it made available so I can read it to see if it has the information I'm looking for......and 60% of the time it wouldn't or it might have just a reference. I've been able to find this information readily for the last 10 years, with just one search on the internet, admittedly it seems to be getting harder to find some types of information which is gradually getting worse.

I don't think religion is the problem anymore, if it ever was, in that regard........ quality of the data is getting worse and worse, there's just so much junk and random crap, I'm wondering if this was the truth behind the control of information in the past.

I see the intentional flood and pollution of information as the real controlling measures........ Lots of this information is just crap, look at the floods and floods of funded research into pointless rubbish.......

I used to work a job where we all had access to the same professional reference material, but some of the dumb shits didn't know how to do a proximity search and remained dumb and often made mistakes.

I’d say they probably did have technological advancement more than we think, but as with a lot of history it has either been lost, not found, or destroyed.

Not all humans are created equal. All advancements are made by some asbergers guy who was at the right place in the right time. If humans were just clones of average Joe we would still be in the stone age.

Because Aliens hadn't arrived and shoved smart probes up Cavemen asses until like 2000 years ago.
