>Somehow referring to "the Cathedral" comes off as cringe
I preferred it when it was just called "The System". Semantically it's no different in regards to Technique.

What post-industrial technology has brought us:
>Global and national matters taking precedence over local matters, thanks to faster transportation and rapid communication (the individual now has very little representation)
>The fruition of surrogate activities (video games, sports, bodybuilding, etc.) over biological goals (survival, procreation, raising children, etc.)
>Shorter attention spans: many primitive peoples, when they didn't have work to do, were quite content to sit for hours at a time doing nothing at all (boredom practically didn't exist)
>A lack of autonomy, the modern person's day-to-day life relies on the whims of a few bureaucrats and corporations (people used to be able to survive on their own)
>The employment of anti-depressants which act towards making the population docile towards the broken system, and unwilling to act on what they believe is morally correct (also as a result of surrogate activities)
>The destruction of tightly-knit communities and ancient cultures
>An eventual energy crisis (we'll run out of fossil fuels soon, and we have no alternative with a similar EROEI)
>Environmental destruction (ozone depletion, deforestation, greenhouse gas emission, etc.)
>Surveillance, and/or a general lack of privacy (think of Facebook's data mining)
>A "Brave New World" (yesterday’s science fiction is today's fact)
>Overpopulation, causing increased stress and aggression
>An general increase in social and economic complexity, meaning there will be frequent, hard-hitting crashes and recessions that the average person cannot predict or comprehend
>A "mouse utopia", or behavioral sink (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavioral_sink))
>Human competition with machinery, requiring more and more worker training to keep pace
