right... because saying that there's overturning of government in Egypt, uprisings in Bahrain and Lebanon, mutiny in Wisconsin, mass murders in West Africa, and massive protests in China and Acapulco is purely false news fun.

Actually that kind of stuff happens more often than you think. It's just not covered as much by the press, until now at least.

Most of us were <10 yrs. old, 10 years ago. So, no. It just appears to you that way because it is in the present. You've already forgotten, if you even knew about, the world's problems just a few years ago.

And even if you don't... you'd have to be living under a rock not to have hear about what's going on! My apologies to all those living under a rock and DO know what's going on!

Yeah, but come on. "The world's the craziest it has been in 10 years"? You'd have to live under a BOULDER to not hear about Isreal vs.Pakistan, Gaza Strip, Katrina, Iraq War, 9/11, North Korea making nukes. C'mon...

I'm coming! Back to the point, I think that now that everyone is more connected, due to the interwebs and what not and with all the facebookin these days, methinks that the problem seems much more intensified and worse now, than it might have 10 years ago or more. I'm kinda replying to the comment you made above mine, instead of the one your replied to me, because I wasn't sure whether you're arguing with me or agreeing. XD Anyways, I don't agree with OP that it's the worst it's been since 10 years ago, I'm agreeing that the world's pretty crazy.

Sure it's more than 10 years ago, but if you've ever taken a Western Civ class you'd know that there have been much bigger problems in the world in ancient times.
