If the internet didn't exist, do you think you would've have the same political ideology, religion/philosophy, and the overall worldview on life?

Simply because I wouldn't have met my wife, I suppose I wouldn't have. Also, being on the more "conversational" parts of the chans as a late teen made me (perhaps surprisingly) very empathetic and more merciful with my judgement and actions, and helped create a bigger "barrier" of human understanding between the words I hear/read and my reaction to them (very helpful as a hyperactive, sensitive guy!). But most of my ideology's "building blocks" come from very old and popular books, so maybe I would've developed into it/found my way to it, just a bit later. How could I know? 😅
