what's crazy to me is how that was ONLY 100 years ago. and at that, people were in that condition in one of the most wealthy nations too. insane modern society is still so damned new and you can basically count the number of generations who have been born in it on a single hand
Guess the question is how much can you delink technological and social changes. Like if one could recreate the Edwardian era social structure with modern medicine and production surplus what would it look like?
A century ago the year was 1925. The interwar years of the 1920s & 30s saw the rise of fascism/Nazism & multiple attempts at communist revolutions throughout Europe. Very unstable era & not one that I'd want to live in.
Only a moron would want the world of a century ago. But aspects of the 1990s do seem appealing.
