The internet lets you live a life no men in history before has ever had. Before you accepted your lot in life that you lived and died in your own little village within your respective social cultural boundaries. The internet lets men interact with women they would otherwise never have a chance of even being in the same room with in real life.
On the flip side of the same coin it has given men illusions that such rigid social cultural customs might not exist in real life anymore either. The so called loneliness epidemic is a cognitive dissonance between the real and virtual worlds.

That conception of life both in an agrarian society or Neolithic society is itself a myth.
The “so called” loneliness epidemic is that lots of people are lonely.
The explanations for it vary, but I guarantee any truthful explanation will not be so poetically digestable.
