Is degeneracy the new normal?

It's all the same...Only the names have changed... This post was edited by CosmicWunderkind at March 15, 2020 1:45 PM MDT

The definition of what is degenerate is not absolute but variable.

I regard degeneracy as behaviours which cause self-destruction and harm to others.

There has always been a certain proportion of degeneracy in any complex society,
more common among those who have been severely traumatised as children.
Wars and accidents also cause trauma - so degeneracy has a tendency to multiply unless the trauma is treated,
which is expensive and few people can afford it.

In history, we see that powerful nations always reach a point of degeneracy.
When this happens they go into rapid decline.
