    @naught101 @lost_faith It predates the internet.

    Back in 2000, a guy named Robert Putnam wrote a book based on his research into why there has been a breakdown in community in America: http://bowlingalone.com/

    (If you ever hear someone use the phrase “social capital”, they’re alluding to his research.)
