I agree. I’ve been called a “social butterfly” a lot, especially in factories I worked at, because I liked to banter with my coworkers if we had similar interests. Even if we didn’t, I could always find something to talk about.

Now? Nah. I think the general populace who I am more than likely to interact with daily aren’t as pro-progress as I had originally thought when I was growing up.

The social contract has been shat on, and I don’t see it ever getting cleaned until a lot more people start to care about things other than themselves.
