(1,848 posts)Theyre talking about the Internet vs the original Arpanet. Linking networks together instead of having to be directly attached.
The Arpanet was a huge success but not everyone could attach directly to it. It needed a rethink to evolve into todays Internet.

Capitalism invented Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.

(15,805 posts)Republicans have no new ideas and no interest in adapting their policies to find a place in the modern world. They are dinosaurs, forgotten as our society changes and new voters increasingly find the GOP to be irrelevant and out of touch with the majority of Americans.
Their only solution is to lie, obfuscate and deceive their own base, and acceptable practice that strengthens their tribal bonding and provides comfort that soothes their fragile confirmation biases.
