And understandable so, you've grown up with it. But it's the little things that matter, the things that everybody takes for granted. Environment shapes the mind, what you think about shapes who you are. I want a world that's more in balance, that doesn't waste its time thinking about useless crap, that doesn't get lulled into complacency by shallow entertainment. I'm not "just noticing this now" as you put it, everybody notices it, but it's when you actually think about it that makes a difference.
