Society itself.

The rich are getting richer and are above the law because they pay politicians to pass laws that benefit them. Somebody accuses them of a serious crime like rape? Just pay them off and they'll go away. If they won't take a bung, pay someone to make it look like a suicide.

Consumerism is out of control. Almost £1000 for a phone that doesn't do much more than a £100 phone. And people pay it. Why do they pay it? As a status symbol. Nothing more, nothing less. I find so repulsive and shallow, always trying to have the most expensive of everything. Shoes that cost thousands. Is it because they are comfier than cheaper shoes? Hell no. They are heels. They are the least comfortable thing you could put on your feet! The answer is, it's because they are expensive and people want other people to know how much they have spent, just on shoes. That's why Louboutins are so desirable - the red sole gives them away to anyone that cares. Then there's planned obsolescence. Don't get me started on that.

A few quick ones to finish: Big pharma, propaganda led 'state-of-fear' politics, animal cruelty, 'trickle down' economics, high profit = low pay, prejudice, war, murder, rape, abuse, intolerance, self-service tills, selfishness, housing, famine, drought, narcissism, mental health support...

Most, if not all of the problems and threats that humanity faces are caused by society itself.

We could solve world hunger if we wanted to.
We could solve homelessness, poverty, drought.

It's not that we can't. It's that we just don't want to.
And that's why I have chosen society.

Thanks for reading.

Society being ruled by status.

This is my first year in middle school, and until now I didn't know how much people cared about fame and/or popularity. It seems that just because you wear the most expensive clothes or shoes, or you're great at sports, you're automatically admitted into a higher status than most people.

If there's one thing I've learned about status, is that it has nothing to do with enjoying life. I am not popular at ALL. But me and my friends are getting by just fine. I love my friends, even though we aren't popular.

Just because we aren't famous, or because we may be a bit weird, or because we aren't good at sports, that doesn't make us bad people. Status is ruining friendships and relationships. All I'm saying is that if you happen to be popular at school, good for you. Just don't become arrogant and selfish. And to those who aren't, you don't need a high status to live a happy life.

Thanks for reading, and f*ck society.

The idea of work. I am not a snowflake and believe you should earn what you get. But we all only have one life on this planet. It really is such a gift when you think about it. Even if you believe in an afterlife or past lives, you're not going to remember them so you, as you are, are never going to be again. And we waste so much of our lives being miserable at jobs we hate. I'm so tired of wishing my life away; wishing the day was over, wishing it was the weekend, wishing it was time for a vacation. Wishing I could be somewhere else. It's such a shame. Even if you love your job, or own your own business, there's a part of labor that is tedious and you may be neglecting your kids or your marriage is failing because of money concerns, trying to stay above water.... I know other systems have failed but I feel like we're really in this place of having to hate such a big part of our lives. There's this fight between people who would read this and say 'you should get a better education' and the people who say to forego education and debt and "be smart and learn a trade" when, really, neither feel like an answer to the overall problem. It affects people who even like what they do and aren't in debt. Maybe in 200 years they're figure out that this is such a horrible time in history to live. They'll figure out a better way. But for now we're all stuck in this money/labor system that is stealing so much of our time. If you aren't someone with a innate talent, finding something to do with your life to make money and not want to hate every minute of it is a lifelong challenge.

I guess that would also coincide with over-valuing money.
It doesn't take much time to say "thank you" and acknowledge someone's else's thank you. Same with saying "goodbye" or "b'bye" and allowing the other person to also say "bye".

People adopting ideas because they "feel right" or "seem good."

Just because you can't think if a reason the cause you've chosen could be wrong doesn't mean it's right.

I'll give an example that will seem obvious to most people now but was nearly unthinkable 25 years ago. In the mid nineties, if you asked someone why antibiotics could cause problems, the vast majority of people would not be able to think of a single reason. (There were a small number that had ideas about antibiotic resistance but usually the answer was more and different antibiotics) now we know that we need healthy microbiota for us to be healthy.

TLDR: Just because it seems right, doesn't mean it is. It just means you don't know enough. Everything has a down side.

People thinking they are better than someone else or something else or another group or ethnicity just because they are not the same. Large egos are usually just annoying, but when these people become high on the chain of command, all hell breaks loose. Hitler, (please don’t hate, it’s a real example) killed people because of their religion, race, disability, or anything that he thought made them inferior. He wanted her master race because he thought he was better than everyone else. If people today have that mentality, it probably won’t result in genocide, but mass chaos. America is called the free country, but we have to pay to hold our children after they are born. We have to pay for an ambulance ride. We have to pay to enter the hospital. And it’s not cheep. The American health system is designed for the rich, the high class, the CEOs and business managers making millions of dollars a year. Here in America, there is already a large number of people acting as if they are the only ones that matter. We have to pay for simple health care because the government hoards money and prioritizes large companies or ones that have important people and big names. Schools have to do constant fundraisers if they have people going for free. Again, the government hoards money. The large company CEOs getting paid millions refuse to let their pay decrease even slightly because they don’t want to have a slightly smaller house or have to use slightly less power and electricity, or watch a few less channels on the TV. You get my point, people who think of themselves as superior don’t care about the others who are struggling to even get proper healthcare or a decent education are complete self absorbed, egotistical, spoiled rotten Aholes who completely ruin society and make other peoples lives a living hell. And they don’t care. They probably sit on their couches and watch documentaries about injustices in the world and feel bad, but they don’t realize the injustice is because of people like them. (PS. I am not saying all rich people are evil. The government is not evil. People, however, can be evil. They don’t have to be rich to be evil, and not all rich people are evil. Statistically, though, about 53% of people making a wage above 800k a year will be more likely to not care about the ones struggling. If they have that kind of money, they most likely worked hard for it, but it doesn’t change that they don’t struggle as much as others who are making minimum wage at like $10 an hour.) also sorry for the large paragraph/essay, but if it is wanted, I could write an entire essay about this.

Me. Or rather, the bell curve of human nature, as epitomized by me. One on end of the curve, a small percentage of humans actively try to make the world a better place, lifting us into the future even at cost to themselves. On the other, a small percentage will burn the world down and drag us back to the Dark Ages for another dollar, or for power, or hatred. In the middle your have the great mass of complacent humanity, mostly being decent people, but not making any great sacrifices nor doing any great harm. Trouble is, it’s orders of magnitude easier to tear down than to build, or to convince the complacent that it’s in their best interest help others rebuild, or to fortify or defend from those who want to tear it down or keep it all for themselves. It’s always a problem for someone else, or for another day. We keep making progress, but backsliding makes that progress slow, painful and costly.

I count myself among the complacent and the passive, because I’m just some sad sack trying to provide for my family and make my way in the world while doing minimal harm (though as a consumer that “minimal” is pretty relative), but not taking the time or the risk to really make a difference. I always think I should, but then I just want to spend time with my wife and my dog and cat, and play my guitar, and live a quiet, peaceful life. I’m well aware that what quiet and peace I’ve managed to find are a happy accident of birth, race, gender and geography. I’m a white guy in a West Coast city in the US, and I don’t really have much to fear. I live in a one bedroom apartment, I have minor debt and no savings, and I will likely never be able to retire, but I’ve got it pretty good compared to much of humanity.

While people like Putin and Assad and Kim and Trump (oh, he’s as bad at heart, he’s just not as smart, and thus far we have at least a few safe guards in place to keep that sociopath from being the tyrant king of the USA that he wants to be) are trying to tear it all apart, I should be doing more to actively fight it. I try my best to be a good person, and I’ve had moments where I put it all on the line for someone else—like staying with a shooting victim while the shooter was at large—but mostly, though I am not evil, I am why evil men can do what they do. I let them, then I shake my head, or shed a tear, and I go back to work, or to band practice, or the TV. So, your answer is “me.” And, statistically, probably you.

To isolate one "something" which is ruining society is like trying to find a drop of water after it has entered the ocean. The entire system appears to be in a rapid state of decay. Sounds very much like the Kali Yuga spoken of centuries ago. Sounds very much like the effects of galactic scale energies which are probably engulfing our solar system, and happen in cyclic patterns. Sounds very much like the innate sense of spirituality that humans may have, as evidenced by DMT, is collapsing into a denser version of the Worship of Money. So, what can humans do to counteract these things? If only a minimum required percentage of the population could actually agree on the more correct way of thinking, and proceeding with that thought, then we could be on the safer, and more peaceful path.

The fact that the new generation expects everything to be given to them without consequences. Had a co-worker take a work bag I left on a shelf. Without asking. And out of the building which is forbidden raking company property off site. And he was also given the same bag when he started at the company so he had one of his own. When confronted as he walked in carrying my bag with my name on it, he thought I was being sarcastic. Later that day he came to apologize for taking my item but said he didn’t like how I spoke to him. I’m not apologizing for you doing something you know was wrong and getting caught at doing. I’m 53. He’s about 23 or so. Entitlement needs to stop. He is not my equal. I am not his mom or boss. I wouldn’t consider it right to take someone’s property. Or take company property. But the new generation thinks it’s ok. And gets a participation trophy for doing so.

The idea that something is inherently “Ruining” society.

It’s not being ruined. The thing that’s happening is that people simply publish things with an interesting hook and then several people take it way, way too far and start talking about how we’re all going to die.

We aren’t. The news source simply wants you to focus, because if you say “Recycling being dumped in China” nobody is going to listen. If you say “America waging environmental war on China” there’s a good chance people are going to listen super, super close. It’s just super-intense word choices that make us think something super bad is happening at all times.

It was never being destroyed. We just think too much about the bad than the good. Plus, it’s a really, really good way to end up a raving madman talking about shooting up randos on some weird “Alternate news” site because you think that is how to fix society. It’s not, because it’s not broken.

Are there bad things? Certainly. And I’m not saying we shouldn’t work on some stuff (Like gender equality, for example). Stand up for worthy causes. But if you think everything is unfixable and we’re all going to die as a result of several random guys, you just really need a therapist. And perhaps some sort of anti-anxiety medication.
