I read it. Oh my... to think this is from 1909 if I understood correctly. The bit about "beware of first-hand ideas" at the end chilled me to the bone, it was so "the times we live in".
Yeah I read it a year ago and there have been a lot of joints and booze in that time to make my memory fuzzy but I did autistically tell every one about it and how they should read it.
He was friends with the dude who wrote this:

I also want to read that because I kinda see civilisation as a curse as well.
But ya so much stuff to read and my focus is just getting worse and worse as I grow older. Plus if you have an inquisitive mind you’ll probably end up having similar thoughts to other people as well.
Found it for you: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Machine_Stops
It predicts the social media age incredibly well
Thank you!
No problem it’s a quick read as well
