Topic: What is wrong with today's society? - page 3. (Read 765 times)

Nothing is wrong with today society, people live better than ever.There are less poor people than 50 years ago, less sickness,people live longer, there are less wars etc. So i say we are doing pretty good

It's happening because many lies were told so far and no one trusts each other anymore. People see each other as competitors, rivals that are constantly trying to achieve the same goals. There is so much tension on the air nowadays that even little issues on the daily life are a reason to mess with everything around.

There are too many problems in today's society, and many problems cannot be solved. Employment, environment, poverty alleviation. Capitalism has brought too many problems. Humans can only rely on new great leaders to lead me to victory.

It seems to me that there are two words which can describe our society in its fullest: money and loneliness.
It`s all about money today: people focus only on money alarmingly often, which makes them miss the rest of their life. They tend to miss the point that no matter how much money you earn, they make no sense if you can`t enjoy spending them.
As for loneliness, we do everything on the social media to make other people pay attention to us. Everybody is so eager for attention nowadays, it feels like these people won`t be able to survive if they`re left alone.

I am able to overcome my feelings or depression.. but i can't not notice others.
As i have said before, why people don't care anymore about others? I don't think that's normal.
I can only wish a better world will be created for us.. so we can live without having problems like the ones I have mentioned.. a disease free world where no children has cancer or leukemia, a world where people are not cruel to animals, a world were people don't kill one another for no reason, a gun free world..
Maybe with all the tech that is developing atm, they will be able to create that.

Humanity has always been like that. Just for some reason, you began to notice it right now. Perhaps this is due to your personal problems or depression. If the latter is true, then you need to seek help from a psychologist.
And people have always been mostly insidious and selfish. Read Shakespeare or just a book on history, and you will understand that for hundreds of years, humanity has not become better or worse. Everything is as usual.
If all this is so depressing to you, try changing the world around you, starting with yourself. Smile more to people, do good deeds. Perhaps then you will see a response from others and begin to see more positive things in your life.

What you have stated becomes normal to everyone nowadays. But I think we were totally different to what we all used to be before. I believe that technology plays a major role in this changes. For example, social media have set some expectations that isn't at all the reality for most of us. Since everyone were using it, they tend to compare and end up being depressed or whatever. The thing is technology is indeed making advance but it slowly washing off the real personality a human should have.

What I feel about today's society is that, we humans are bwcoming inhumane. We care too much about other human while we are not really into humanity. We are becoming rude, we slowly loosing our manners, we are becoming the opposite of the society we are looking for. On the other hand, despite of those negative things that is happening around the society, we should not take away the credit from the people whom showed kindness, benevolence, and positivity. All of these things, be it --- positive or negative it may be, we should not let the society change the good way we truly are, instead, it is we who should change the society in the good way it supposed to be.

It's perfectly normal to feel that way, hell-it's even normal to commit suicide. But please try to zoom out and look at the world as an outsider before reaching to any conclusions. Everything has got to do with the way you perceive reality. All the facts that you mentioned are true. but there are also as many-if not more-  facts that when you hear them will just make you wanna go outside and enjoy people with. The current financial system has changed everyone. When once all you had to do was play the game "life", and gold would be earned simply by playing it, you know have to find gold in order to play the game! As a result everyone is constantly thinking about survival (well, not all, but most). You tend to get a bit miserable thinking you won't last the year due to your economic circumstances! Every negative thing has its upside though, as is with everything in life! Look at what that financial system and its crisis have helped form. A new society! Where else would you feel comfortable saying that you feel alone and depressed! Where else would you feel that is is okay lay out your concerns!? The community formed around crypto is filled with people feeling the exact same way as you, and want the world, as it currently functions, to change. Of course, there are evil beings here as well, let's not forget that ying&yang coexist! Overall the good that crypto emminates will prevail. It's not all about payment systems and getting rich you know! Some projects just want to leave the world a slightly better place-take Hinounou for example- offering a complete healthcare ecosystem to our seniors, when even our countries neglect them!

Do something that makes you feel fulfilled (not just your regular job), do stuff you enjoy doing, depression is an emotion just like any other and thus can be controlled with physical things (Not just mentally), stop searching stuff like "how to overcome depression" because people will tell you their experiences and the things that happened to them when depressed, search instead for "people doing stupid things, fails" things that get you in a good mood. We were created to enjoy life not to complain about the things that are wrong with the world, of course they are important, but everyone should do their best and forget the rest.

You could always move out onto the ocean. Maybe buy a boat, and sail away for the rest of your life. All you would have to contend with is the Great Pacific garbage patch - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Pacific_garbage_patch.

There are always going to be miserable people who see you aren't miserable and will want to bring you down to their level like crabs pulling each other down into a bucket. Try not to focus on them too much and focus on whomever you can find that is not like that.

Have you ever felt alone and depressed? Have you ever felt that nobody likes you? Have you ever walked on the street and felt that everybody is looking at you in a bad way?
I really don't understand what happened to people.. did they forgot how to smile?!
I feel that people don't care anymore about others and i have seen so many fundraisers online that barely collect 100$. I see people acting bad with animals and nature.. and one with another. Where is this going to lead? Global corporations don't know what else to do to make money on poor people backs and step on bodies to become no.1.
I am ashamed of today's society.. we live in a cruel world and i wish it ends soon because this is not the way humans should live.
How do you feel about what's happening around us?
