Vanity and greed are called deadly sins for a reason. It is clear these are afflictions humans have always had to deal with. Unfortunately, culture isn't built from the top down and takes generations to change. I am sure we will see a swing back toward traditional values as people learn the hard way that not all things old should be thrown out.
- alt227 2y agoI do agree, and we have seen this in the past with things like the punk movement, which was a purely creative output from the working class in response to poor social conditions. Hopefully there is a similar movement against similar modern technological conditions at some point. There are a couple of differences here though. For example everybody has the same tiktok. The upper classes and lower classes are for the first time being subjected to the same issues simultaneously. Also the modern medium of tiktok has proven so addictive that people are not showing any signs of rising up against it, and so it is taking legislation to protect people from themselves. These are all new factors which will change the swing somewhat, Im with you in hoping that it all works out.
