Absolutely.. and what makes me sometimes doubt humanity are statements like GP's, where people just have _some_ position and act like it is the only one that is even worth considering. It's not even necessary to clarify what their position actually is. You just have to know because it's the only valid one. I don't know why but over the last decade this intensified.. everyone is so damn sure of himself and his views..

The biggest problem is that people seem unwilling to change their mind. People base their whole identity on their opinions and it’s getting worse. I think it’s because the internet allows the people who have dumb ideas to meet other likeminded people. They can now form groups. And now it’s harder to be open to other opinions, because the existence of your group validates your opinion. Check Facebook Groups. It’s a cesspool.
