I'm not entirely sure if it's because they're mostly youngsters, because I've met some VERY intelligent young people. They too seem bored by social media. Although, keep in mind that this is a very rare occurrence.

I feel the same way when it comes to controversial topics. Most people have become too scared to discuss topics that are deemed as such. But, here's the thing, controversial topics are often viewed as problematic by the vast majority, and most people don't wish to solve problems, they wish to ignore them. But that's not how you fix problems. They NEED to be discussed. When it comes to controversial topics, there is one in particular that I am always pondering: national borders. Nikola Tesla always believed that world peace will only be achieved through the deletion of such barriers. Personally, I believe the same. When you consider the vastness of the world, national borders seem quite ridiculous. They always lead to a sense of nationalism, racism, hatred, and many other forms of conflict. Many of these issues are the cause of the global issues we're experiencing right now.
