We’ve had a lack of social cohesion way less time than we’ve had suburbia.

I think the lack of social cohesion is due to the fragmentation of our media. Before the turn of the century everyone watched the same TV, heard the same music, and got their news from the same places.

Now we’re all so siloed that we don’t have shared cultural base so even people in cities aren’t cohesive.

And the group today with the most social cohesion are the folks who all watch Fox News religiously.
