Today's World...

So I was just thinking to myself as I often do... Clearing my mind on thoughts about what's going on with todays world, how it is run, how people act amongst each other and I was coming to some realizations that meant something to me so I figured... what the hell, let's make a post on the blog since I haven't done any in so long.
So, today everyone feels like they matter to some extent and I blame social network and internet for this, because there's no standard quality patterns to meet when you are posting on your Facebook or Twitter walls... It's whatever goes on your mind, you can say there. Wether it's something actually worth reading or you're just shitting on something or somebody because you're too stupid to understand it, but everyone nowadays has their opinion... Is that good? Is that bad? Well, let's think about it.
If we analize it correctly and we are honest with ourselves, we can realize easily and quickly that there are much more stupid people than actually decent and calm people and again, I blame the internet and the anonymity it allows... People hide in front of their screens and keyboards easily under a made up nickname and an image or a picture from google or somewhere else. This allows people to say whatever they want without consequences and the only consequences there are is that someone rats you out if you say something really nasty and you get under suspicion of a crime or you mess with a knowledged hacker that will teach you a lesson. But, let's face it folks, the chances of this happening are minimum to none, unfortunately...
Because the people that do this, will keep on doing it because they are not getting any consequences out of their actions, therefore it doesn't feel like it's a bad thing. Some people live their lives just to mess up yours, they wake up, get on the internet and they just want to make you miserable.
As I quote so many times from the movie Batman, as Alfred says to Bruce : "...some men, just wanna watch the world burn", I know that this is absolutely truthful more and more as days go by.
You hardly feel any remorse from saying bad and toxic words to someone you don't know, you can't see and probably will never meet.
With that said, I honestly miss the times of my childhood of walking and running around, respectfully towards others, exploring nature, exploring our surroundings, getting hurt and learning from that, getting beat up whenever we did something bad... I got hit from my grandparents many times when I fucked up and yet here I am, a respectful (and very proud of it) human being.
I didn't turn against society, I didn't become a serial killer and it's absolutely dumb of people nowadays to think that applying a slight little bit of violence to your children is wrong and abusive. Sure, yell at them once or twice every two minutes, while they carry on messing the chilling time other people try to have in a cafe...
Another thing that bothers me about humans and todays world is how addicted and how much we consume technology. Don't get me wrong here folks, I love technology myself... It's interesting (to a certain extent, sometimes it gets too stupid), but we're far too deep into it already.
We are spending money on needless gadgets all the time. We are spending money on things that are very easily outdated and out of fashion because the media and the companies say so... And that's ridiculous.
Some people buy an iPhone every single year and to those idiots, you're just feeding their theories that the sheep will just go after every piece of "candy" they throw if the sheep do a "roll on the floor" (for example). Meaning every year you buy a piece, they will just keep on doing it because they're quite comfortable with that business model... I know I would!
This goes out to everything...! Gadgets, vehicles, games... As long as you keep on "eating" everything, they will keep on "feeding" it!

Anyways folks, thanks for reading this rant of mine... I will try to post some more and something else some other time. Those who know me, know that i'm a machine for hating things... hahaha! Cheers!
