Has anyone else noticed, that society is getting more and more broken?
odd behaviours
Compared to just three years ago, I have noticed such a decline.
I guess it depends on where you live, and if your area has become like that.
But even in other things, I have noticed that wrong has become right and right has become wrong.
I guess I am looking here for some philosophical chat about these matters.
Yes the post is slightly ambiguous but it is a broad subject with lots of facets to it, so this post is for broad debate and thoughts.
The scholars, intellects and those that are thinkers will certainly know
I off course have hope for better things and things to one day mend
My take on this, is that I'm not sure anything is worse or anything is better. We have way more access to information and misinformation. I don't tend to believe much I read on any kind of media and try to be conscious that it's used, as it always has been, to manipulate us.
What I do feel has changed is that everything has become more polarised. People say they want a debate but really they're just looking for validation or reinforcement of their views. The middle ground seems to be disappearing but maybe it was never really there.
I think sometimes people look back on times thinking they were better when in reality they were not. It won't stop me fighting for a fairer future for everyone and I struggle to understand anyone not fighting for the same.
People won't live, and let live. We're a nation of gossips and pot-stirrers.
Plus, there are those who use personal grief as a weapon to hold those close to them prisoner. Cancer was the thing that divided us; Covid exploited that.
