I don't know whether is the fact that I am getting old or something. The world nowadays is not that I knew 10-20 years ago.
There could be some reasons like, elder adults used to have good old days. I would say, my days at my younger age is quite a golden era of the world. No war, climate change not yet a concern, plenty of resources from the earth, new things came up from scratch. That depicted a major direction to the world: the world is changing by human, in a better way for life. At that time, a fairness concept was advocating to all man kind. Man kind just stepped up to fight against unfairness, including races, genders, jobs, educations, ...etc. We believed the world could be better than ever.
It was, actually. But now, such pursue on fairness looks like being over-protected. The consequence is, every group or individual should have their rights to express. That is good. But at the same time, once certain group grown big, it would start dominating. Then others will be suppressed. With the help of internet, the lightening speed of information spreading, with some information underscored, different kind of conflicts raised.
The tolerance level from one to another drops dramatically because everybody is seeking allies from the internet easily. No matter it is a fight for justice or devil, kind of internet bullying will come out. The consequence? It depends.
When jump up from individuals or groups to countries, things even worse.
What we dreamed for a better place to live 20 years ago, looks need some more time.
