While there are many other insults and assaults of our era, preventing people from being together is currently the most serious affront to humanity. Being together is the most important thing. The ability to breathe the same air is one of the most fundamental social and biological experiences that we can have as living creatures. When we cannot breathe the same air, we are all turned into outcasts from our own lives, our bodies, our environment and one another.
This also happens when robots take over our thoughts (all digital devices and platforms count), to which we surrender our ability to think coherently.
