Fake Nature:

VR? Ballyhoo! Killing time; killing Nature. More toys and more software to buy, boys.

Are we slaves to the techno-media men - playing with ourselves while ignoring our neighborhoods?

You frame the evolution of cognition as combat between what has passed and what is now?

What is the point of contextualising it this way?

What we now refer to as mythology was once simply what humans had come up with in seeking answers about ourselves and the world around us through telling stories that some people decided to take frighteningly literally. Mythologies are still useful cultural compendia, filled with fables (or parables) that attempt to convey wisdom through analogy.

I clicked the link. I saw the itemised list of grievances. Where was the discussion?

Since there isn't any discussion or even discourse in that linked item it would seem no active thinking has occurred by the poster.
The "content" shows me that the poster has no concept of mythology nor the meaning of it, very much like those people today who are constantly looking at their phone screen, the valid points are completely missed or just missing completely.

The lists that are there have nothing to go with them, making them mindless drivel to simply be ignored by the cognizant people.
If you actually have something to say, then say it and give evidence of your "proof".
