I was reading a book on social life of the upper-middle class and new rich of the American 1920s and realized so many things we now do proudly were considered socially taboo back then. This was especially the case for clothing, makeup, women in certain public spaces, etc. What do you think will be different in the 2120s? Or maybe even the next 50 years?
Manners (i.e. respect for others) will gradually disappear until we are farting in each other’s faces.
You obviously don’t get out much. >90% of people have perfectly fine manners and respect in the real world, it only the terminally online who would think this. Or boomers I guess.
Farting will steadily increase until it reaches its theoretical maximum in 2123
Farting will increase until morale improves.
It said 100 years from now. Ironically you just gave an example of shitty manners.
I’m aware of that. But you’re insane if you think that in even 100 years from now manners and politeness/respect will be gone. Basically ever generation for literal centuries have had similar opinions about the manners of the youth, and guess what; manners and respect have stayed pretty much the same. Sure the way it’s expressed may be different from centuries ago but people are still generally polite to others in most scenarios.
And as an aside I used boomers as an example because it’s usually the older generation that hold such opinions. But that’s probably a bad assumption here considering the average boomer has probably moved on from fart humour.
We aren’t? I think you’re quite good at it.
