I started experiencing it in 2014 when Cambridge Analytica was building up their pro-Trump stuff. Reddit and Facebook really changed that year, and it's never gone back.
I really hope that people have a sense of urgency that it took a lot of time to get humanity more towards positive after world war 2, and we could do better, and it really isn't worth hating each other on this planet.
A world-wide funeral for those we lost in the pandemic would be nice, but it just doesn't seem to form. Plenty of people with social power who could spread the idea.
