Do we have a growing problem with Nihilism and if so, what can be done about it?
I heard someone on the radio talking about this today, and they gave the example of the ‘Mangionista’ women with press passes from NYC covering the Mangione case. They were openly saying on video how they supported what happened and that the CEO deserved it, without a care about his children. What they said was exceedingly vulgar.
Or that while Lord of the Rings was good vs evil, something like Game of Thrones was all nihilistic and evil. There was no good, and that’s what our kids are being presented.
Then they stuff their faces in their phones all day, and lose track of the value of human life, etc.
Is this a problem and is it getting worse? What can be done about it?
