Crazy how we live in the age of highest technology and we use it for such juvenile shit. If sci-fi writers from the early 1900s knew about the high-tech apparatuses we have today they would be wondering how we haven't colonized the galaxy yet.

What's stopping us? Why are we using divine technology for worthless shitposting? Where did we go wrong as a species?

Unlike you, they were intelligent enough to grasp that a pocket pornography viewer isn't any more useful for spacetravel than a horse or a steam engine.

The reason we didn't get the future of the 1950s was the racial tension and disorder of the late 1960s and 1970s.

It seems like American companies squandered their advantages after WW2
Car companies took their monopoly for granted, rested on their laurels. The chief innovation of the 1950s were car fins, which had no mechanical effect, they were cosmetic. So when Germany and Japan rebuilt their auto industry, and were trying to compete with American Autos on Price or Quality, Reliability, they caught the big 4 sleeping. The oil shock showed they had no case.
