I'm still getting my brain around it all, but I think it goes something like this: I've been on the internet since about 1989 and, at that time, the 'world' was already connected with things like UseNet newsgroups (UUNET) and, later, things like the Mosaic and the World Wide Web came into being and the 'world' was even MORE connected. That's up to like 1993 and, obviously, the 'world' got more and more connected.
But I'm realizing that's not really true. It wasn't the 'world' that got connected, it was The Western World + universities from the rest of the world, including the third world. The only people from places like India that you'd run across were the very highly-educated outliers: The crème de la crème of their academics, basically. Everything seemed fine when those were the people we were dealing with.
But now the actual REAL indians are what's online. They're scummy, disgusting, and organized in a way that gives the jews a run for their money. So, probably for the last ~5 or whatever years we've actually been getting a taste of what it's like when the ACTUAL 'world' is connected. And it's disgusting because the non-Western world is largely an unfathomably disgusting, repulsive, corrupt, evil place. I say we're 'getting a taste' because India is just a tip of the iceberg. There are still LEGIONS of the most disreputable, evil people still yet to have an online presence and, when they do, we will (as Lovecraft might have put it) yearn to flee from the 'light' of a truly interconnected world into the peace and safety of a new dark age.
I just realized this a few minutes ago and I still can't grasp how fucked the situation is, and will get.
