    I feel like you're missing historical context. Nixon and Kissinger's trip to China happened in 1972, at the tail end of the Vietnam War. China was aware of the terrorism the US committed in Vietnam and still chose to open diplomatic relations.

    Something that immediately came to mind, Twitch culture. Some young people spend all day on YouTube and Twitch, rather than having friends. I don't think the cause of this is the website but the alienation of late capitalism. It definitely is possible that Blade Runner holograms become commonplace.
