We need to focus.
Per Bucky Fuller 'we' had the knowledge to make humanity an ongoing forward success in the 1970s. That's when the hot tubs of Marin County produced the personal computer revolution (see What the Dormouse Said), and Englebart did the Mother Of All Demos in 1968.

Internet was on track to raise the 'vibes' of humanity's shared consciousness until Al Gore sold it out to corrupting influence of advertising. It's been a downward spiral since, with Facespook and Social Autopsy at the bottom.
