My thoughts,

I have seen such drastic, diverse opinions today than ever was ten years ago. In my opinion, people are more willing to die doing what they love to do or what they believe in. and people will do whatever it takes. From religion, to sex to money to healthcare, to piracy to almost every single thing. Even seats in the coffee shop can be a thing to quarrel about.

Civilisation change? May be too drastic, since war have taken a step down and successful people have done a lot of good things in the world today, but riots, protest, rapes and news about people doing "stupid" things are everywhere. I honestly see that people today want to be heard. It's a problem, a real problem and in today's world, the government or anybody should realize that people will resort to such things if things are not addressed.

It's very contrast in today's world. It's either you're rich or you're not. It's either you succeed or fail. That's what it looks like.

Yeh I get what you mean. I think a lot of it has to the with the Internet and how it encourages freedom of speech & easy access to information, which spills out into real life too. At least, I believe the Internet was the spark. People today are very aware of their rights - there is more transparency today, and a lot of people will fight for what they believe and for their future.

In my opinion the world does need some kind of change towards promoting unity and world peace. I think most people in government today are old fossils stuck in their right ways unable to look at the future from a different perspective and act accordingly.

I'm a bit of a rebel, but I would be happy to see some kind of revolution.

Mainly because I believe the current systems that are set up, particularly the financial systems in the western world inhibit our desire to pull our resources together and do what is right for the world. Today's politics are too local and are majorly only about benefiting the giant corporations etc etc. We need to think globally. But of course current systems don't allow this, because if we did start to do things differently everything would collapse and their would be chaos.

I believe the way everything is setup today stops us, particularly rich nations from really being able to have a positive impact upon the world. The resources are their, the workers are their, the desire is their. but of course it all costs too much money, so fuck it, lets just build a giant football stadium so xxx team can increase sponsorship advertising which will have a positive trend on quarterly margins.

I am just sure there must be better ways of doing things, and ways of thinking outside the box that will allow us to keep our freedom and comforts but also allow us to do what is best for the world.

Exactly, the govt and people are using old fossils. We are in the 21th century, People are still thinking 20 years before.

The problem is that i already see it collapsing, in a moral and social arena. Slut label and Slut shaming still exist, but i have seen the current system, it has a whole lot of cracks.

and people today from both the moral and the promiscuous willing to battle at this time and space. and i don't detest the promiscuous.

I honestly don't mind people build giant football stadium, because it's positive feeling generator. Everyone might have different opinion, but i believe it's about schools, people and parents, siblings in general. The way we are teach to think has flawed, mostly, today. It just doesn't work as well as it did in the labor age, where going to build ships means big bucks.

Building a community where working as a waiter and earning $3000 isn't ideal, for everyone to accept, because people will become lazy, but there are also people who love doing that. So there's a problem over there, too.
