RE: Hope is peed on by social media

in #trending7 years ago

I agree! Personal responsibility used to be a HUGE topic as I grew up. You did not dump trash out the window because it was YOUR trash to take care of. If you did messed up, own it and fix it. I still try to do this at work. If I know my procrastination or action lead to something negative, I apologize and try to fix it. Yep, I did it and now I will fix it. There are consequences but it is better to own that mistake.

I do not want to force people to behave like me, but I do wonder, did we lose the sense of "us" in our culture? When I go out and talk with people, I find diversity but I do not see behavior like I do online. Does online impersonalize it so drastically that we lose the restraint we would show in person?
