I think GP means more that we generally don't have to worry about survival on a day to day (or seasonal) basis anymore, so we have more time to think about bigger issues, like politics or social issues - which I agree with, personally.
- const_cast 1y agoPolitics and social issues, sure, but introspection? Personally, I don't see that. I think people will do almost anything to keep themselves from introspecting. It's just so much easier to externalize everything and constantly be looking to your environment and how it influences your life, as opposed to looking within. It's very uncomfortable to try to figure out why you are the way that you are and what you can do about it.
- zdragnar 1y agoTake away social media, and most people have plenty of time for it. Most people fill their hours avoiding their problems rather than confronting them. That's half the reason therapy exists.
