re: #199 Eclectic Cyborg
I blame the internet and corporate owned media outlets.
I blame overly privileged, middle class white flight suburban Reaganaut Gen-X kids with a sense of entitlement.
I also blame the decline of sportsmanship and a decades long derision of the concepts of empathy and compassion being the province of quiche-eating liberal will losers like Alan Alda or Phil Donahue.
