Not only that, but I always notice how peers of mine dont even know how to respond anymore without some unconcious level of sarcasm / cynicism; covering the numbness we experience in social settings. When we break out of it, and begin to feel, most of us are stunned and at a loss of words.
I hope that I'm just too young, and we begin to have some level of social cohesion, instead of hopping between asthetics we would like to call ours. I think, as a generation, we have become too uncertain to have our own perception, instead prefering to live in the hyperreal.
(I don't want to say this from a doomer perspective, but more as my confused two cents from the main european vassal state.)
I definitely felt like that for the beginning of my learning, but nowadays I just feel confused by every kind of media and discussion around me being painted in lib views, to the point of experiencing paranoia / delusion. Glad that those times are behind me, but now I tend to devolve into blood boiling anger if I'm by myself, but try to remind me to ask others questions about their understanding, instead of devolving into debate culture. lol
