      yes, a less connected, a less free, and a less populated society is better. im sure you would love travelling for months just to visit another country or living a much more unhealthy and shorter life, or having few choices for work, having very few choices for entertainment and never seeing technological advancements in your entire lifetime, so you die knowing that humanity never evolved and just stayed stagnant because of pathetic traditionalist values
