I've come to the conclusion that what we're seeing right now is the same
as the 1960s. A massive collision course between the establishment
which fundamentally doesn't understand the new reality and the
well-informed but socially different populace.
Just like the 60s, the "establishment" doesn't stand a chance since
there's a lot more of us than them - but it will take a while for said
"establishment" to understand that it is irrelevant, and that it has to
change radically to conform to the new reality.

'man' is short for 'manual' because it's very short, for a manual.
