The thing you have to understand about the original Gilded Age is that "gilded" does not mean "golden." It means covering something cheap with a thin layer of gold, to make the cheap thing look more valuable.
That is why they called it the Gilded Age: it was a cheap simulation of a golden age. A shiny veneer of prosperity, but scratch the glimmering surface and all you'd find underneath is base metal.
In other words, enshittification is nothing new. It's just how plutocracy works -- looting the fundamentals of the economy to gild the lives of a few.
