MODERATORS
There was moral outrage when faster, cheaper printing presses were invented because they were worried people wouldn't learn or memorize anything anymore if they could just write it down & it made literacy accessible to the common person.
There was a moral panic in the 19th century where people were outraged that young girls from good families kept reading novels. They said it would lead to social self-isolation and bookishness and distract from apropriate activities like knitting, socialising, looking pretty and smiling.
And young women were thought to be largely unable to discern fact from fiction and hold their gentlemen callers to the same standards as the men in their novels. And you know, women having standards... the 18th century couldn't have that.
Jokes on them, both men and women now isolate themselves thanks to C.AI (=
I'm glad I wasn't sober when someone incidentally compared happy meal toys to the invention of movable type.
