Parents can't even spank the child now because someone will call the police and child protective services. I see it all the time.
You have safe zones now because people are hurt by what was said. You have groups that call everything you do hate. Even if it truly isn't. You have fake and reality. Who do you trust though? That's the problem. Dinner time is dinner time and it's meant to be spent with family. Its not about stranger danger. It's about I don't need a stranger to be in my conversations.
Believe it or not. I agree with what you said.

Dinner time on a cruise is not the same thing as dinner time at home though. As others have pointed out it has been communal until very recent. There are other communal dinning situations as well. Even at Disney Biergarten is communal. My local BBQ joint is mixed. Most of the seating is communal though.
Also just to add safe zones have really been turned into something they were not meant to be. Originally a safe zone was somewhere that an LGBT person who was not out publicly could go for advice and talk openly with out fear of being outed. It was an open place to discuss topics that may have gotten you black listed form society when it wasn't okay to be different.
