@stalfel For a long time, I thought that it makes sense to draw the parallel between the print and the internet “revolution” (fully aware that it also led to the extreme violence of the reformation and the 30 years war). That’s standard media theory. But I’m less and less convinced. https://twitter.com/Info_Activism/

@stalfel Yeah, but the question of what happens when you introduce ecosystem turbulences, rather than “just” cultural ones, opens very different perspectives. Hence, I think we would be lucky with “just” a 30 years war! The parallel (we will adjust out over time) might be too optimistic.
