How has society become more irrational and crazy since 20 years ago? Show examples...

Soooo gasoline was .69 cents per gallon in 1996 in your town then I guess fuckertard?

It was actually 89 cents in my town in 1996, so I don't see why it couldn't have been somewhere around 69 cents in the other commenter's area.

(Also, note the fact that they said "nearly tripled". Yes, it really has "nearly tripled" in the past 20 years. In 1996/1997, I was driving across the country pretty frequently. Were you doing much driving, then?)

Cries for morality, decency, and civility are viewed as the ravings of an unforgiving, intolerant, overbearing prude!

"Live and let live" and "dont judge"

are the code of conduct of today's society.

Here is my wife in this crazy society:


[link to www.zimgz.com]

my example is the prevailing notion that parents somehow don't have the right to decide all things for their own children..parental rights have been almost completely destroyed..this imo is one of the most harmful insanities that has occurred..so much degradation of society can be traced to this one aspect its almost incomprehensible

tinder, POF, and all the other instant fuck sites that have brought women back to the garden to choose the forbidden fruit without any "policing" or "shaming" by women with souls, have made this all happen. Women are the creators and the deniers of life.

Fuck the whores then RUN!

20 years ago mainstream music was prettier.

20 years ago there were still people who were themselves and not "someone else".

20 years ago you were able to pinpoint which girl/woman acted like a "slut".

20 years ago even though game consoles and PCs were popular, still you were able to go and hang out, play sports, interact with other people. YOU HAD INTERACTION and FUN and CONFRONTATION!

20 years ago it didn't matter that much if you lived in an average house or an average car.

20 years ago there was still no "dot com" hysteria and McMansions and "The Real Housewives".

20 years ago people did not act like MONKEYS!

20 years ago you could travel around the world without fear.

20 years ago you were having much more fun per se, however the problems society and you had

1996 right? Let's see now...

Oh, you don't have a big wallet, and a big car, and a big house? Sorry buddy, you ain't gonna "jump" a woman.

Oh, you don't have money and want to study? Sorry, rather go and flip some burgers. If you're a woman, there's also porn or "sugar daddies".

Oh, repetitive mainstream music being programmable onto a PC and full of vulgar and sexual content.

On and on and on.

Today you wish either you could turn back time or die peacefully 'cos you're fed up with all this societal, economic, and spiritual decay.

TRUMP

...very interesting insight. Especially considering that the brain-parasite Toxoplasma gondii is a true expert in dopamine synthesis and administration.

I can offer a perfect example.

DRIVING.

I've been a delivery driver for 6 years off and on since 2004. I can say without question that most of you should not have driver's licenses. Putting smart phones in people's hands was hands down one of the dumbest things we could've done as a species. You're not supposed to be on the computer while operating heavy machinery at high speeds.

People bitch about Muslims being a threat, but the fact is most of you are the biggest threat to eachother's lives because of how bad you are driving. If I were president most of you would lose your licenses and be forced back into heavily reformed driver training programs that would be extremely strict and difficult. Earning a license would be very difficult and losing it once aquired would be very easy.

You wouldn't be allowed to go out on the roads in blissful ignorance of what a blatant threat you are to other people's lives if I were in charge. Drunk drivers aren't the problem. Sober 16 year olds and childish, poor trained adults are the problem. Which, essentially amounts to about 99% of you.

The things you read on this site are a perfect example of a country full of superstitious bigots and flunkies who have lost all sense of civility and empathy for their fellow humans.

The interwebs have drawn us closer and closer. We now witness, on a global scale, more of what's happening to our fellow man/woman/beast, day in, day out. Whether these images are true or false (manipulated by many sources or not), this sends us crazier and crazier. Just one aspect I suppose.

Or global warming

Well done that man :) I was hammered when I typed that lot out last night (or was it this morning?) Nothing worse than ranting when drunk, always asking for trouble :D

Do you think that's happening for a reason?

Seems like government is moving from being 'Uncle Sam' to just 'Daddy'

Learn to read fuckface, "nearly tripled"... It was 89 cents a gallon in 1998, that's an average, some places were cheaper.

Thanks. I am intrigued by toxoplasmosis and how it might seek to spread by changing the behaviour of the cats it infects to be more 'cute' and such, in order to (possibly) come into closer contact with humans.

I started flying in the 90's for work and it was a cool experience, now I'd rather drive because flying is no longer fun but a pain in the ass.

Respect is earned, not given.

Liberals fucked it all up.

I see lots of people with mental problems. Today people are more mentally degraded than they were thirty years ago. It's really sad how people are walking around in society with mental problems. Then, some young people like children are learning to be mental. It's a learned trait.

20 years ago it was crazy ... 40 years ago even more so.

I was born in 1975 ... from what I understand, 1975 was pretty crazy.

A lot of things have gotten better.

When my parents got married, they thought my dad could be an office clerk and my mom would stay at home and somehow we'd be able to survive, lol.

They had a rude awakening and thank God they forced us to think differently.

They also thought cocaine was really fun, and speed wouldn't hurt them.

They thought DDT was a good thing. And plastic, disposable everything.

All that was ill thought out and we've gotten way smarter.

The way we (intelligent people, anyway) raise our kids now is better. Helicopter parents or not, when I was a kid in the 80s and 90s I was in a lot of very dangerous situations that my children will never be in ... hanging out with people (adults) I should not have been, etc. It's a wonder I came out alive - a lot of us didn't.

Seatbelts. Car seats. No cutting school. No smoking in public buildings. Safety recalls.

What's crazy now this narcissistic, look-at-me culture ... that's how it has gotten worse. Ugly, mean, narcissistic, stupid people acting like like they are movie stars, showing their private parts, fake hair, nails, everything. Celebrity role models - irrational and crazy.

It makes it way harder for kids in that respect, so thank God we've stopped allowing our kids to hang out in the woods with creeps who buy them beer, or leaving them with babysitters named "snake" and "bones" ... I guess it evened out, lol.

Racial bigotry was resisted by race-blind solidarity, today racism if fought by dropping cement blocks on the heads of those who are a different colour to you, and other such acts of random violence.

Gays once fought for the freedom to do what they want, now they fight to lock up, psychiatrically label or otherwise persecute anyone that does not bend over to their dogma.

US universities were incubators of free speech, now they are dangerous spaces for anything but the most weaponised forms of newthink mindrot.

The internet was an critical mass of noospheric freshness, now it is a toxic weapon of mass distraction.

There used to be a dizzying distribution of culture and ideas in the cultural space of man kind, today it is closed-loop variations on the theme of io.

Feel free to copy left.
Fruit always connects with seed.

So how even more irrational and crazy have things now become, 4 years later?

A known pedo and his known pedo criminal son are at the helm of the USA

Crowds of looters are destroying their own communities in South Africa

Covid craze locks entire countries up

Citizens themselves ask to be injected with insufficiently tested doctored mrna vaccins, known to cause prions and later on Creutzfeldt-Jakob like disease, just to be able to go on vacation


Feel free to add more.
