Absolutely not. Intellectual and political life in my country is basically nonexistent due to decades of repression, so it was the internet (specifically the English-speaking internet) that provided me with the information necessary to make any sort of informed conclusion about, well, anything. Without the internet I’d have ended up as a vanilla guy with no political positions beyond autocracy bad and a wildly skewed view on life in general. My religion would’ve stayed the same, but with a lot less thought behind it.
