I Have Memories That Give Me A Sense Of Nostalgia

All social media has been slowly going downhill over the years - meaningful connections have been slowly replaced by a texting mentality where nothing real is said. I was around in the early days of EP when every comment had at least a small potential to spark a real discussion. Nowadays SW is more like Facebook (though not as bad), and Facebook is more like... a more Facebook-y Facebook. It's just the nature of things lately - real meaning, authenticity, opinions, passion, and vigorous discussion are looked down on more and more often, and things like politeness, kindness, political correctness and unilateral non-judgement and support have become the values of the day. Most of the new values aren't such bad things, at least when people don't take them too far... but I can't help but feel sad for what we've lost.
