- techdragon 11y agoI want to vomit a little bit with sheer rage some times. America is literally rotting away since 2001. Before then, it had a few bruises and blemishes like any country does. A sad chapter here, some scandal there. But now it rots on full display for the world and I can't understand how it's citizens live with it... Then I remember they don't care. And I do my best not to care because if I kept on caring it would probably drive me to suicidal depression. And I circle back to my thoughts and realise that they don't care because they too are probably just afraid of being dead inside, it's nicer to be ignorant and happy than informed and depressed. It's just the vicious cycle of the world.
- effie 11y agoI feel the same. I wonder whether this moral sludge we live in is how the world always has been and always will be, so all the stories about moral values are just notable exceptions. How to raise children who would care for other people, for moral values when we do not? Where do we find better parents, better teachers? How do we move towards a society based on actual people instead of the fakes of a human most of us are?
