If you could erase one invention from history, which would you choose?

Leaded Gasoline its use isn't worth the cost it brings. Everything else would have major costs to take away, like if Nukes didn't exist Ww3 to Ww4 may of already happened and sure it wouldn't be world ending as Nukes everywhere but these wars could've stretched for years and years with endless lives ruined and living state terrible for those alive, at least today while threat of nukes exist the standard of living is higher than ever.
Equally without maybe the wars would be a good outcome such as being to stop Russia but that's the unknown reality one would make by such removal.

And of course we have the social media haters using social media while saying we should get rid of it... I guess to them mirrors don't exist

The Internet. It would also eliminate all apps, social media, and smart phones as a side effect because with no internet none of that would work or exist.

[Anonymous]

Social media websites like Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok and YouTube because I feel it’s bad for the mental health. Too many keyboard warriors on there and podcasters or influencers spreading false or misleading information.

[DryGermanGuy]

Zuckerberg invented Facebook in 2004. Etc. etc.

[Dargil]

So, you are defining Facebook as antisocial media? Why is it antisocial media?

[DryGermanGuy]

Facebook is the epitome of that antisocial machine creeping into people's lives. Getting them to overshare all their personal information and become a transparent rube to market and sell.

[Dargil]

Oh no! You mean people should examine and think things through?

[DryGermanGuy]

We have arrived in the Age of Stupid. For most people, that ship has sailed.
