Your "This world we are living in now" implies something has changed. It hasnt. It has always been like this. You only get to know about it more, courtesy of the communications technology existing. Edit: I will add that you would do best to be aware of this, and try to not take be too affected. Its harsh, but similar sort of cruelty has happened literally millions of times since before humans climbed down from the trees. Dont be paranoid, depending on where you are, its quite unlikely to affect you. You, as everyone else, just have to accept this is what humans are and have always been and learn to live with it. Its a risk, just as there is a risk getting hit by lightning. Its unlikely and the chances can be made even less by acting accordingly. Cheer up. Cheers.

Maybe, but this too, is not surprising. After all, just because you live in a "(putatively) civilized place" doesnt mean you have to be. Not even a little bit. A few hundred years of "enlightenment" wont make a dent in genetic hard coded traits.

@GeekyC Heres what I do; I dont follow social media much and certainly not the main stream media. I know whats going on that relevant is to me just fine anyway. You watching this video by lotus eaters means you are already more clued in about some/most bigger issues than almost everyone in the general public, you could leave it at that... Sidenote regarding gruesome footage and images: As a kid, I grew up on the "unregulated" internet that existed back then. It was "cool" to watch the most horrific videos that could be found, some sites collected them Perhaps they still do, I dont know, I only knew about them back them from how my friends talked about them. But I never watched a single one of those videos. Why should I? Didnt interest me. The psychology is a bit interesting, I can only assume my friends saw it as some kind of "manliness ritual" of being a rebel similar to mouthing off to the teacher, etc. Since I grew up in quite different and a bit harsher circumstances than those kids, I had no need to prove anything to anyone.... Anyway, my point is: If it affects you negatively, try to avoid it best you can. unfollow or block some content some contacts posts for a time if you absolutely have to keep using social media a lot.

Maybe "we" dont know war and what it takes, but I certainly do. Anyone who has studied human nature without bias do, even europeans. Of course, you certainly got a point in that there are very few of us in northern europe, as a percentage. Or is that really the case...? Maybe it isnt, and the ones in charge just conveniently forget, because it suits their agenda to do so... When it comes to the average person, I would wager that this seeming lack of knowledge is only less than skin deep, and the beast within could potentially easily be brought out in a dire situation.

@talisupremacy7176 Not exactly sure I understand which specific part of my post you are answering.... it seems perhaps we might even be in agreement, mor or less?
