Recent threads have prompted me to start one of where we went wrong.
This assumes you are in agreement that our culture is sliding backwards.
Civility and respect are two cornerstones of a proper foundation.
I believe the advent of the cell phone/Internet/social media has played a significant role in reversing our ability to be respectful and civil to others.
If you spend any time at all observing humans in a social habitat...it becomes obvious they are no longer participating in human interaction, as was done prior.
Of course, not everyone on the planet is bereft of proper manners and the ability to respect others and act in a civil fashion....just because of this.
But in general.....I believe it has had a negative impact on our culture in that regard.
