If you gotta go, you gotta go. The real question is where will we get the toilet paper?

This, and huge portions of generations of a nation totally dependent on the government teat to survive. The takers are outstripping the producers and that gap will continue to grow.

75 years of media filth, constantly cranking up the garbage levels. Music, film, art, everything has been thoroughly vulgarized and flooded into our eyeballs every single day of our lives, constantly encouraging us to participate.

Media has rotted our brains.

would also say social media. But not because of kids but adults who got onto Facebook and started to get brainwashed and believing fake news articles.


fricking this. Think of how awesome Facebook was before they allowed non-edu emails to sign up?

Media can only rot your brain if you allow it to.


To answer the OP, greed, particularly at the corporate level. Late stage capitalism is fun!

I agree with much of this but we are lazy. There are thousands, THOUSANDS of great books out there but we don't read that much anymore.

I think most folks aren't comfortable sitting quietly... With their own thoughts. It's how many complex problems were solved for hundreds of years.

Look at the real indicators of civilization and you will see we're trending up.


There has never been a better time to be alive in recorded human history.

The average American on welfare has access to technology and medical treatment that a king of France couldn’t have dreamed of 250 years ago.

The average upper middle class American has 2-3 cars, a house twice as large as their grandparents in the same relative wealth demographic and lives longer.

Our problems are largely problems of wealth or decadence and mostly controllable.

Don’t like what’s on TV? Do something else.
Don’t like our politicians? Ignore them.
Don’t like how kids are socialized? Spend more time with yours.
Don’t want to be fat? Eat better.
Don’t want consumer debt? Spend less.

Overtolerance.

We accept perversion as normal.

We laud immortality and we give awards to mentally ill people.

We expose our children to this and they think it is a societal norm.

We elect people to public office who, by their faith, are sworn to destroy America.

More like the move to the extreme on both ends. Moderates are truly lost in this. And majority of the country is moderate.

Society has not “gone to shite”

Things are better for the average person in modern day America than they ever have been.
