I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I've noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I've filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it's insane. I don't know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn't become the same type of echo chamber of anger.
do you think the world became more hateful alone, or it's your own perception based in social media, or the social media changed the perception of a lot of people, making them hateful ?
honestly, i think the 3 poi ts are correctly, in it's own way, statistic speaking violence was diminishing, it's always was that, especialy with the evolution of society, media just made everything look worse, that maked people act more agreesively because everything was "falling apart" and media helped enhace this sentimentent too, like a snow ball, that's what i think
