My own opinion about those days, is that ignorant people understood their own ignorance and kept their heads down. The internet allowed Dunning Kruger to explode. Ignorant people found each other and fed off each other and decided they were very, very smart! Smarter than the scientists! Smarter than their doctors! I enjoyed Tom Nichols book “The Death of Expertise” - a good read.
