A very thought provoking piece @kyriacos, as usual.
@dwinblood recently wrote a post called Virtue Signalling and Parenting that dovetails into your comment about "Children suffer from this the most because they are used to everyone catering for them."
We live in world made up of people who never grew out of everyone catering to them, because they still INSIST that everyone continue doing so.
The "NOT-GIVING-A-FUCK" graph has gone invertedly parabolic (is that a real term?) and is now "GIVES-A-FUCK-ABOUT-EVERYTHING-EVERYWHERE-ALL-THE-TIME".
I'm frustrated by the self-important who can't be bothered to wait in line, or insist everyone else accommodate them.
But, like a dumb-ass, I continue to follow the rules of a "civilized" society.
lol. Don't feel bad about following some rules. One has to adopt or perish.
The graph was meant as a joke but more or less it dos correspond to reality.
I will make sure to read that article
I don't feel bad, but I often sometimes understand how Diogenes felt.
With that said, that's the most exciting thing I find about Steemit, i.e. the number contributors here who do really impressive work.
It has inspired and given me an optimism that I haven't felt for a very long time..
