[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 483284, member: 7379"] I'm sure there have always been plenty of rude, stupid and selfish people in the world (along with plenty of decent, kind, polite and intelligent ones), however the big difference these days is the internet. It increases their visibility by giving a platform to everyone, good and bad, dim and bright, educated and ignorant, to voice whatever views they care to, and to also easily communicate with people they would never otherwise have had any contact with. However, I also definitely think Governments / politicians could and should be doing far more to set a better example of how to behave, as bad, corrupt, selfish, childish and unjust behaviour can't help but filter down through society, and not everyone has the skill or wit to rise above it and see the wood for the trees when it comes to knowing what is and isn't generally acceptable.
