Although I agree they might have existed, I disagree with the volume you say existed. Without technology, antisocial children would at least have to go outside and think of something to do. Now? they rely on tech to think FOR THEM, and slowly go insane when youtube continues to push out the same **** they've seen over and over as recommendations.
At the same time, envy has spiked through the galaxy, because social media now allows us to look at how great our friends lives are, while ours may not be so great. So mix those things and you get
Envy-Anxiety, repetition (slowly causing insanity) and boredom (causing depression). Seeing as society is also grooming these children in schools to demand and expect, we end up with a bunch of anxious quitters, losers, and borderline suicidal children who desperately need the attention of their parents to unwind from that cycle before they grow into dependant adults who will vote for and believe that something can actually be "free" and they are entitled to it.
Yes.

Sorry but I don't belive technology is an issue here, people are the only problem here, we alyways blame something else but not self, in ancient, there were demons and gods, in medieval there were whitches and ghosts, then satan and evil possessions, now LGBT and technology. People are just full of flaws and nothing can change that(maybe technology in next 1000 years), because of internet you just can see more of stupidity than ever before.

Look at old documentaries from the 60-70 or even 80's and listen to how differently and more intelligently people speak, as someone said long time ago "I belive humanity has reached her peak and from here on it's going down" Famous people are famous for being famous, Actors who can only play themselves, Most celebrities are dumb as **** and on TV we have Keeping up with the kardashian with season after season while for example "Cosmos: Possible Worlds" which also gets a rank 9,2 on IMDB goes unrecognised, People want stupidity, they look at youtube videos containing stupid things, it feels like the whole world is dumbing down, The longer time goes the more relevance this comedy movie makes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXSz0bA9CiE ---- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clYwX8Z43zg

Today we also have extremely intelligent people everywhere, the only difference is that back the days, low iq people had no chance to get so big audience(internet, YT, FB, Instagram etc.). The world statistics didn't notice any decerase in intelligence, average IQ is higher every decade.
With the world statistics you can get that 4% of world population were always mentally ******ed or extremely low IQ, 4% of 7.6 billion is about 304 000 000, it's enough of people to flood whole internet with stupidity. This can give you the impression that humanity going backward, but in reality we going forward.
Probably a guy with depression

Many believe the "Flynn effect" has already ended. Not that it changes your argument in any meaningful way.

This article sais it too "it suggests changes in lifestyle could be what's behind these lower IQs, perhaps due to the way children are educated, the way they're brought up, and the things they spend time doing more and less (the types of play they engage in, whether they read books, and so on)."
Instead of nitpicking about what the reason is people are stupid / toxic whatever, you all fail to se that you all have valid points, There's not 1 single reason the world looks like it does, it's a combination of all those things you guys said, and more.

That sentence is as lazy as your stupid name. Would you like try a coherent response or are we done here?
I agree that we threw excuses in the past to simplify our broken culture, but unfortunately I came home late last night and desire rest before I can make a clear point of view against this. This is a good point though, you're just overlooking the fact that we have developed so much since then, and, I believe, we are far more rational because we have laws which prevent us from repeating these past generalizations. I'm destroyed though, so, sorry that I can't properly follow up.
This. We can discuss this forever, but it's fun to see opinions fly, especially when it's something you can agree with, while adding to it.

Answer was coherent, but apparently I have to stoop down even lower to get you to understand me. So only monosyllable words for you?

Welcome to world of warcraft mate, this game is based on toxic stuff happening all the time. Literally every server ive been playing to is toxic as ****, after all you never know who is playing that character, might be 7 years old might be 50 years old , might be a sick person might be a stupid person, you never know.

This right here is Warmane at its finest. :D
From my point of view, the issue is that people simply don't care about anything but gear, and are generally lazy.
Lazy to read a guide that will help them improve on any aspect of the game, lazy to watch a video on how to kill a boss, lazy on trying to practice and improve themselves as a player, etc.
From that you have high gear score standards even for raids that can be cleared with 200 ilvl average blue gear.
Everyone wants to make a char, get instant level 80, go in ICC 25m hc, kill Lich King and loot only Best in Slot gear.
No one wants to read spells, talents, put in the time and effort to learn how to play properly, its always easyer to get in a raid and get carried.
New players are not welcome mainly because of the logic that if you have low gear score, that means you are bad at the game.
Forums and streams are also full of meta breaker high end pro game play players, that are trying to invent hot water or a mind blowing wheel, that just miss inform the newbies that want to learn.
On top of that, they end up destroying the fun from players that want to play specs like Assassination rogue, Enha shaman, for example, that might not be S tier specs, but are well A tier specs that can earn a spot in any raid.
Overall, if I were a new player, I would take my time...
Go out in the world, learn your class and spec(s), do all quests in Northrend, get professions, farm Emblems, get to know your class in and out again, read couple of guides, watch couple of videos (on both how to play your class and how to kill bosses you are facing), there is more to this expansion that farming icecrown citadel mindlessly, ruining the game experience you could have cos of few "pro" players.
On top of that its 10 year old expansion, the right information is out there somewhere, u just cant be lazy.
As for how to deal with those kind of "pro" people that never make any mistake, just ignore them.
Ignore what they say, and if they are being consistently rude, just end it all with /ignore, cant do more than that. :D
