Genuine question

[DonnyStrumpet]

After living here in USA for a while, it feels so different every time  I visit India. 
 

It feels like indian society in general is becoming more and more toxic over there. Atleast I can vouch for the soceity that I’m interacting with. It never was this materialistic and ruthless over there
 

But when I express this opinion with well wishers. They are saying that I’m the one that is becoming softer by living in USA for so long. And this is how things have always been in India. 
 

Which version is true I wonder. Have you guys had similar experience? Genuinely confused at times.  @jpismahatma @Konebhar6 @akkum_bakkum

Both are true. 
My dad said the same to me many times that I have become softer. it’s true coz we got used to a different society in US where day to day life is simple and easy. In India it’s a struggle  and you have to interact with many people and deal with many things everyday.

People in India have become more materialistic. There was a time when people used to worry about family values or spoiling parents name or worried about society when doing something wrong. Now they don’t care and if you see dynamics of the cities/villages have changed completely. 20-25 yrs back everyone in your village/colony used to recognize everyone. Not anymore. People have moved to other places. Younger people do k boot know everyone. Everyone is busy trying to make money and most people look for the easy way

Agree to disagree kind of situation. Like it depends on where we are living and what we are doing and what we are seeing.

SM influence on younger generation created a vital gap and destroyed so many core things

At the same time, things are changing rapidly and acceptance level is very high than our generation where it took years of understanding the things.

Simple ex: we can understand both younger and older generation and can live with them.

The older can't live with the current gen and viceversa

coming to softer and tougher concept, simply i can say they can't see the things like we do. we have core respect towards anything. they do have it but selective respect. they simply cannot take the view unless its useful to them.

The great grand father generation is the one who saw the things as it as and implemented solutions useful to any one.

Survival of the fittest culture is growing in India more. Kids r raised street smart now and their self obsession is praised (infact hailed) by parents as survival skills. Kids also think whatever thy are doing for survival is correct. No ethics, morals etc. Those are all not known or novice concepts. During our days, there used to be a subject called moral science taught in schools, atleast elementary. Now its no where to be seen.

We are definitely becoming much softer due to the culture here. We put others perspective in place. In India, such is unthinkable. Everything is need based, a nice gesture, help etc. If thy think there is no use of you, ppl have no hesitation throwing you under the bus with no remorse.

how often you visit ? 
 

Bold: its right, you might prolly moved when you were young so you didn't get a chance to do that with people; by the time you got into a position or power you are already in US and your psyche changed. 

[Thokkalee]

Very simple.. society didn’t change much in US, unless you are politically too involved in left or right.. we adopted this lifestyle when we moved here.. 

In India, society changed drastically in the last 10 years.. incomes, life style, survival skills, etc etc 

the change is even bigger in China.. the older generation can’t even recognize their country now..

totally true hero ... 

the changes of toxicity were growing growing over the years ... n COVID made the shift accelearation and permanent ... 

society now realized that ... self expression, self centerness, self promotion, self idenity, self flourishment is paramount !!  even at the extent of cheating, damaging to others !!! 

I have observed this change even in my relatives who are in 70s now !! ... 

people are put on a socio- economic rank .. based on that respect or the way they treat is different now .. 

even the toxicity is visibile and felt .. between parents, parents to grwon up kids ... in between siblings ... 

if u r considerate of othe rpeoples emotion .. u r weak, n loser territory .. 

the situation reminds me of dialogue from aa naluguru .. where kota srinivasa rao says to rajendra prasad .. 

mosam cheyyaleni asamarthudivi ... manchi thanam vidaleni amayakudivi ... 

manam US lo vundi .. parents and siblings, nephew and nieces gurinchi vila vilalaadi pothaam ... 

here they play a entirely different crooked, connive malicious game !!! 

gone are the days of emotions with which we grew up in 80s n 90s !!  

 

sad part is that we have see those changes in our owen parents !!! 

If u morals u r a big time loser !!!! 

Time will have answers !!!

With each passing day, you grow more mature in how you respond to situations and in your behavior.

Some may see this and say you’ve become softer, but it’s simply a natural phase of life.

its all queations without answer ... badulu leni prasanalu ... !!
