I don't think I could do it, but I find myself half wishing I could.

I'm old enough to remember what life was like before social media, the internet and twenty four hour news and don't think I was ever particularly misinformed on current affairs back then. What I was, was more tolerant of opposing views, less quick tempered and less likely to take offence than I am now - whether that is down to the aging process or the type of world we've become, I'm not quite sure, but I'd guess it's got more to do with the latter than the former.
