Hypothetically, let’s say the internet breaks down with no recovery in the near future. How would this affect culture in America (or the entire world)? Would monoculture return? The specific cultures I mean are…

Politics Influencers Big Tech Hollywood Work Force ???


Imo, with no internet, Hollywood would probably be the biggest beneficiary from this. Television would probably become a juggernaut again. I think influencers would fall off the face of the earth without the internet. Big Tech would crash. Politics would probably start to shift dramatically towards the left with the lack of echo chambers online. And I think labor would stall for like a month or two.

So yeah, without internet, I think Hollywood thrives and almost every other industry or culture takes a big hit.

What do you think?

    We would just be back to the 90s where the internet exists but isn’t as widespread. The internet was a hell of a lot quieter then.
