“We all talk about how no one has any shame anymore, how people act in whatever way they choose, how people no longer understand how to behave in public and how selfish, how little regard humans seem to have for one another. Where do we think all this came from? This is the culture we have normalized by watching it on TV and sharing it on the internet, for years now. We expect people in positions of power somehow behave differently, to be better, but why would they? As a culture, we have rewarded this behavior. We gave those shows ratings. We gave our attention to celebrity fights on Twitter. We sent signal after signal after signal.”
