The Men Who Stare at Gods - Call of Cthulhu. Alternate history where the US government became aware of the mythos in the 1980's during the Stargate Project (a military investigation into the paranormal and whether it can be weaponized) and things have gone pear shaped

That's something that's actually canonically dealt with in Whisperer in Darkness in regard to the Mi-Go, but they do eventually figure out a way to photograph them

Even if not by google search than eventually someone would end up emailing it around like the tape in Rings or reading it out loud over the air like in Fistful of Boomstick or Scary Movie 3

I think the Inca empire had periodic mandatory stints of government service instead of taxes. Or at least that's what they said on Extra History (although they also stipulated that there were some inconsistencies in the historical records that have come down to us)

The root of the problem - the real core problem - is a society set up to make people reliant on employment. They're automating everything so why the hell should we be expected to work
