Is Thinking Passe?
In no way, shape, or form am I trying to stroke my own ego or give into arrogance, but I find myself continually frustrated trying to diplomatically deal with the growing sense that the world no longer feels compelled to actually THINK for themselves anymore .... as if being "Politically Correct" and personally unaccountable for the last 10 or so years has allowed the trend of doing less, thinking less, and "skating" as much as possible to somehow be elevated to an acceptable Norm, since it has not been challenged openly nor had enough people take a stand and raise a voice of opposition to it.
Am I alone in sensing this wave of mediocracy and cancerous lethargy compounded with blase logic and simple ability to text on a mobile device rather than complete a full sentence using more than seven 3 or more syllable words grow beyond a socio-trend into a threat to society?
Seriously! In a Forum environment as this, much of the fumbling of concepts is largely due to the global communication skills and English being not the native tongue of more than half of the Members .... we get that. That alone has a lot to do with how learning and thinking processes differ ... this too is understood and relaxed as much as possible.
I guess I am merely focused on the minority that has become the majority .... those who are taking advantage of this era of non-accountability and who have essentiall become ineffectual people --- just living mounds of flesh in the world that consume more than contribute or earn.
AM I ALONE IN THIS OBSERVATION?
Those that have been in VodaLand for a while know me for who I am .... completely transparent, totally up-front, whacko sense of humor, deep dedication to being happy and sharing a smile, so on and so forth. They also know I really do know a lot about web stuff, and tear my hair out trying to write reply posts in order to stuff more info into fewer (less likely to be mis-interpretable) words so people can get more than what they were seeking ....
Lord knows, those VodaFriends that are connected with me on Facebook see just how easy-going and in the center of things I am, how I am Mr. Nice Guy and all .... but dealing with this "Unthinking Era" is really getting to me, especially in these Forums: it's almost as if people go out of their way to "test" the Moderators, or to pester people and pick their brains as much as they can for free before being found out and moving off to another hosting community ....
What to do, what to do .....
