  1. One example of how things have changed. In the 90s, I used to just walk into my local GP's surgery. Now you have to yell into an intercom system to establish if you have an appointment, and then be buzzed into what is basically a fortified compound. That's the difference between a homogenous and high-trust society: and a "diverse" and therefore low-trust society.

  2. I remember what it was like growing up in rural England in the 80s and 90s - and I can't describe how safe, and civilised things were. I can barely describe the rage I feel at the people who deliberately and maliciously destroyed that.

  6.  @WickedScott  The point is the only thing that has gotten better since then is medical/health technology. Everything else is worse, and yet we are told we are the greatest society ever.
