People have lost all manners and respect. That leaves cuss words and insults in most people's social toolkit. |
I was just discussing this with a friend today. What happened to manners and common courtesy? We’re all about ‘respecting boundaries’ so much so that people have become cold hearted, self absorbed, rude, nasty individuals. I wasn’t raised this way and try to make an effort to treat people kindly and respectfully, how I would like to be treated, but it’s almost seen as being creepy now. And I am a woman, god forbid I was a friendly man. I always say hello to my neighbors kids, I have kids the same ages, they look at me with blank stares and keep going. They never ever acknowledge me or anyone as far as I can tell. They’re entitled little jerks. My DC is so enthusiastic and loves other kids, she is a kind soul, and the mother snarkily remarked how she has never seen such a child, they find my child annoying it seems. I don’t know when everyone became such a-holes. When was the turning point? What year did the majority of people just stop being polite and teach kids to just walk past neighbors and totally ignore them?Also when did it become okay to plan activities with each other while excluding people who are part of the conversation? That’s not alright. |
Agree, the nastiest people I know are white republicans and I am white. I hate them. |
This crazy lady bumped into to me to get to the strawberries at whole foods. Then rammed her cart into me at the kombucha. Take some ashwagandha and be cool you psycho! |
White people?"
So sick of racism. |
Ok maybe it’s not white people. It’s MAGAs, I have never met a kind, genuine person who supported Trump. Most supporters happen to be white. And I am white, but they hate me because I don’t support Trump. Sorry to bring politics into this but it’s the truth. |
Trump is showing these sheep that it’s okay to be brash and ignorant and entitled. It’s all so wrong, but people are buying into it. |
White people are more likely to yell insults, Asians (including Indians) are the worst drivers. You can tell the terrible Indian drivers because they doddle about in their Tesla with their personalized license plate (Rithika, or some other Indian name). I’m cool to say that, right? We’re throwing out white comments do assuming fair game. |
Total opposite experience. Whole I’ve certainly met some jerky white republicans, those are always the people I see volunteering and using good manners. |
I am white, but I find them completely phony. They’re nice to your face but if they discover that you have Mexican friends or black friends or that you had a child out of wedlock they judge you very harshly. They drop you as a true friend many times. |
I am also white, and agree it tends to be white MAGAs who are raging. |
It’s so weird, they’re just such abhorrently behaved people. I can’t believe they were raised like this, so narrow minded, I live amongst them, and while they’re polite on the surface, they’re horrid individuals underneath. They only want their kids associating with like minded families so my kids are shunned by them. |
