How selfish and cruel people openly are.

Blows my mind how common it is nowadays.

The shit that comes out of stranger's mouths to me shocks me on a weekly basis now. Years ago it probably shocked me on a once every couple of months basis.

    Cruelty is a virtue in this age. Years of teaching people not to care what others think, no wonder they grew up to be casual sociopaths who lash out as an expression of their rugged and brave individuality

    Whenever you hear someone talk about how little they care take a second to consider what they're actually bemoaning in the context of living in a social fabric.

    these people care a lot about what others thing. they just want others to admire them for being rich and powerful and cool.

    no idea what you are on about ruggedness. these are incredibly fragile people who lash out at a barista for them not having oat milk.

    You're right. Boldly proclaiming "I don't care about nothin" is an aesthetic in itself.

    I said ruggedness in a patronizing way, it gets lost in written form. The straw man I usually go to when envisioning this person usually reckons they are some kind of cowboy.

    Shit isn't so bad. We all shit. I think the bigger problem is that the world is ran by the shittiest of the shitty people. And apparently most people look up to these shitty people.

    "Shit isn't so bad"

    "The problem is all the shit"

    Or let me clarify. Problem with shit is when people don't wipe their ass.

    Reminds me of an old George Carlin bit "you ever notice how everyone else's stuff is shit, while all your shit is stuff?"

    Wiping starts at home. Don't just blame everyone else for their shit when you've still got a load in your own pants.

    I would love if you could go into more detail about this. I've been a hermit for the past twenty years, so I haven't noticed a decline.
