dormant elaborate labyrinths
Back in midevil times when I was young, in my readings (ETA Hoffman, Hesse, Borges, John Gardiner’s “The Wreckage of Agathon”, Asimov’s Foundation Trilogy, Ursula LeGuinn) I not infrequently encountered reference to elaborate labyrinths navigation through which could lead to beneficial greater understandings. I quite liked that myth, but it seems to have, at best, gone dormant.
I’d hoped that through the internet I’d find, if not greater understanding, at least interesting discussion of ideas, or dreams, aspirations, with comparisons of various ways of looking at things or apprehending them. But, sadly, no. It’s mostly just flat assertions.
We have lost so much, for ego.
Like money, at best a questionable God (although, like other gods, it doesn’t answer questions).

Because the internet, like most anything else, is merely just another part of this same world we all live in.
Hence, the majority of the presence on it is bound to be similar to the majority of the presence on any other medium
...in short, eventually becoming inundated by a majority of "normals", "average clods", and the like ...
...same as TV, magazines, radio, businesses, and so on and so on ....
