No, but the point is that tv shows or movies generally don't pretend like that.

Most of them are pretending that they aren't corporate. YouTubers are generally trying to keep up the illusion of authenticity, which on YouTube usually includes pretending that you're on your own.

I really don't think most conservatives would become anti-car for even a second, even if they got run over but a giant truck.

The hunter-gatherer cultures we see today actually seem to have a lot of free time. Seems like technological and cultural progress has different mechanics.

I'd say agriculture's influence is that it's a big incentive for people to stay in one place and develop relative dense communities, that density is what is actually speeding up progress.
