Incapable of normal thought process

It's like the hive mind or something. When enough of us get riled up the rest of us get riled up. Like bees.

People say shit online or in emails that they may have never in person.   Give that enough time and that is the way the act in real life.

That plus the fact they are absolutely ignorant on the complete details on a particular issue, pick a side and dig their feet in and refuse to listen to any and all counter arguments because their mind is made up already.

The change in women is unreal.   Their willingness to strike men nowadays is shocking.

Everyone is an expert on everything now. just ask them. LoL

Instead of living your own life and dealing with your own issues, it's take up a cause because the spotted bum fly needs people to fight for them to survive. 

And we are now seeing what that is doing to general interactions we have today. Us against them

I would’ve worked another 5 years if culture hadn’t changed so much. It was a combination of burnout and frustration with the system. From my point of view it’s the increase of personality based narcissism that is contributing to the decline. The other is the opioid epidemic promoted through doctor’s offices and pharmaceutical companies. It was devastating to the culture.

Tatoo culture is a prime example of that

go on... 

I know a few people who've been stereotypical narcissists their entire lives, but it seems to be spreading and growing like a cancer... including types that to be frank aren't anyone special.

Not sure I'd say 100% but it's definitely a huge factor.

I see it as much or more in older people, who are less likely social media users.  It's almost as if there's two generations which seemingly act more entitled than the rest.  Imo that's the Boomers and the millennials... :dunno:
