Or is it the fact that people always tend to think that the present moment is always the worst?
There is so much crazy shit going on in the world right now.. you have the Putin vs. The West, Israeli-Palestine conflict, ISIS storming through Iraq and murdering innocent people, civil war in Syria, and health concerns about the Ebola virus..
What are you telling about?
No it is not a fact that people always tend to think that present moment is always the worst.
You are watching too much news. Stop it. It is not good for you
Public media tend to manipulate your feelings.
Just look what they are serving for the news. At first you will hear about some death/war/murderer/etc. Then something bad from the gov. Then some bullshit about nothing and at the end they will serve some nice infos about something good/funny/etc.
This is the scheme in every country. There is a reason why it is happening =)
In my opinion at the moment situation around the globe is quite difficult. But I know it can be better and it can be worst too.
Stop listening to social public media. Start thinking on your own.
Does it seem like things are getting progressively worse?
Yes, things are getting exponentially worse.
Can you tell me about what are you talking about?? Do you know that just less than 100 years ago there was a World War ][.
Before that (about 100 years ago) there was World War I.
And you are telling me that things are getting exponentially worse.
You people should think more realistic/optimistic.
Do you remember when during 2000-2006 terrorist were attacking most of the biggest cities of the world? London.. Moscow... etc.
That was BAD. That was terrible time.
And now you are telling that things are getting worse.
It all depends on where you live. I agree that if you live in Ukraine you might say that things are worse.
Do you remember Egypt ?? When "Anonymous" "came" to help them? And then you weren't saying that it is very bad.
But it was.
There will be always a war. Love. Hate. Anger. Passion. Birth. Death. Ice. Water. Fire.
Together we can change the world for a better place. But if people will feel depressed and stressed and they will act like a sheep. We will do nothing.
heads up! Be strong. Every day is a new day.
