This Isn’t Normal Adult Behavior Anymore (video)

Lately, I’ve been noticing behavior from adults that would’ve been considered unusual — or even unacceptable — not that long ago.

This video isn’t about politics, sides, or beliefs. It’s about behavior, accountability, and how adults are responding to stress, conflict, and frustration in public spaces.

Public outbursts, emotional escalation, lack of self-control, and performative behavior used to be rare. Now, they’re becoming common — and that should concern all of us.

This isn’t a judgment. It’s an observation.

And it raises an important question: When did this become normal?

These people are being revealed to us because of the prayer from the Irish:

Shortened version:
May those who love us, love us
For those who don't, Lord please turn their hearts.
If not their hearts, then their ankles so that we may know them by their limp.

Liberals/Brainwashed Youth are Deluded Ignorant lost sheep stumbling around clueless to Reality. I feel sorry for them. Very sad.
I truly believe the nonsense Covid vaccine poison set off their mental illness and rocketed them into crazy orbit with a point of NO return—very sad.

What he’s seeing is people whose minds have been broken by teachers, on purpose. Radical teachers are the root of the “youth problem”. The idea to keep people in adolescence permanently.

Amen brother, you’re exactly right.

This USNI article I posted seems relevant.

A study published in late 2021 found that, “The psychological well-being of adolescents around the world began to decline after 2012, in conjunction with the rise of smartphone access and increased internet use.” This explosion of social media over the past 15 years has caused a moral panic in which older generations believe the youth is rotting away under the pervasive influence of new technology. Such moral panics are normal, but research confirms there is a real problem this time. There has never been a technological development as psychologically detrimental as social media and smartphone addiction. These technologies have introduced an unprecedented disruption to the socioemotional development of children and adolescents, who grow up with unfiltered access to addictive content built on comparison, negativity, and exposure to dangerous people. Disruption of normal developmental experiences in early childhood has altered the terrain of young adults’ social and emotional landscapes, significantly diminishing this generation’s tolerance for common stress and discomfort.

In 2022, 33.5 percent of hospitalizations in all active-duty components were attributed to mental health disorders. The service continues to see an increase in inpatient treatment in the junior Marine population (18–24 years old) for mental health and substance abuse issues. Substance abuse in the Marine Corps, which often coincides with mental health issues, is more than twice the rate of the general population for men, and almost three times the rate for women.

Most Marines in a high-operational-tempo unit train on a consistent and rotating basis that causes chronic high stress, mental health turbulence, burnout, and low motivation. These issues may not be new, but young warfighters’ tolerance threshold seems substantially lower than that of their Millennial and Generation X counterparts. It is not uncommon to see a Marine experience extreme mental distress in preparation for routine Marine Corps functions.

People create internal “realities” which allow them to try to understand the complex world around them. Sometimes they do it because reality is something they don’t want to deal with, especially if it involves self-image.

Puncturing that reality is devasting, possibly even leading to suicide.

We will see, for example, a man believes himself to be financially astute and successful, since he is worth 1 million dollars, and takes enough pride in that so it becomes the core of his self image. Suddenly he has a large loss, and is now only worth $100,000. Instead of settling for that, he commits suicide, because his self-image was his entire universe. Even suffering complete financial loss, why wouldn’t you dust yourself off and try to figure out what you were going to do next? Some literally could not live with himself if he wasn’t that person.

That can come into effect even when your self image is that “Trump is evil”, and by opposing him, you are morally superior. Puncturing that idea is devasting, so people will cling to it.

A steady diet of action movies doesn’t help. People are addicted to overdosing on dopamine. Movies, the need for the constant playing of music, addiction to sports or gambling.

Lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God.

Godliness with contentment is great gain.

I think what plagues us and has for a long time, comes out of our affluence and success. Life has become too easy and free of real adversity and this always leads to decadence and a weakness of mind and character.

And it raises an important question: When did this become normal?

Appropriate citation!

“Toxoplasmosis gondii.

Prove me wrong.”

I can’t prove you wrong, and it is not impossible, but I think mRNA causing brain cells to produce spike proteins is more likely because then your own immune system then destroys all of these brain cells that it can find.

if you destroy enough cells in certain areas of the brain you will get behaviors like we are seeing now.

Hey, if it gets someone off of the public assistance program and renders him self-supporting, that’s a GOOD thing, right?

To the degree that a society obeys the light innately given them (Rm. 2:12-14), and is influenced of the Bible and it's evangelical gospel, it will be both restrained from doing evil, and inspired to do good, so that man's universal lust for pleasure, possessions and power does not bring an early end to it, nor bring it to be overtly suppressed by government, or subdued into being mere functionaries of man or earthly religion. This is especially critical for a free country that seeks to work with a minimum of Government, while tremendous natural resources lay waiting to be both discovered and used by a wealth of mankind out of of virtually every kindred and tongue. These factors would normally work toward either dictatorships or anarchy if not for the preaching of the cross, and the hidden influence of the Holy Spirit of God working in the hearts and lives of man.

Those who are not sufficiently controlled from within, by God and a sound conscience, must sooner or later be controlled from without, necessitating the growth of civil government. Robert Winthrop (May 12, 1809 – November 16, 1894), and Speaker of the House from 1838 to 1840, and later president of the Massachusetts Bible Society, explained that, “All societies of men must be governed in some way or other. The less they may have of stringent State Government, the more they must have of individual self-government. The less they rely on public law or physical force, the more they must rely on private moral restraint. Men, in a word, must necessarily be controlled, either by a power within them, or by a power without them; either by the Word of God, or by the strong arm of man; either by the Bible, or by the bayonet. It may do for other countries and other governments to talk about the State supporting religion. Here, under our own free institutions, it is Religion which must support the State." (Speech to the Massachusetts Bible Society (1849-05-28), quoted in Robert Winthrop, Addresses and Speeches on Various Occasions, Little, Brown & Co., 1852, p. 172)

The commission of the born – again Church is to bring souls into submission to the Lord Jesus by spiritual means, “By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned, By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left” (2Cor. 6:6, 7; cf. Eph. 6:10-19) — and not by physical arms. Jesus said we are to be the “light of the world” (Mt. 5:14; if only the “lesser light” reflecting the real Light) so that the church, by the use of the Sword of the Spirit, works to bring souls to be controlled in heart and thus actions (atheists, etc., in addition to innate revelations, can also be influenced to have a more Biblically based moral conscience thereby).

In contrast, the commission of the State enables it to use the sword of men to constrain obedience on those who are not sufficiently controlled by the former means (Rm. 13:1-7). It thus follows that the weaker the church is, the more powerful the State must become. “For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof” (Prv. 28:2a). And if the Government itself becomes less governed by Biblical precepts and principles, calling evil good, and good evil (Is. 5:20), and contrary to it's charter, punishes those who do good and praises them that do evil (contra. 1 Pet. 2:14), then “the wicked shall do wickedly,” and persecute those who would actually preserve the State by calling it to be instructed by Christ (Ps. 2).

And while in such persecution, the Christ - believing remnant “shall be purified, and made white, and tried” (Dan., 12:10), yet both willful hypocrites and the church that sought to save it's life by compromising truth and placating sin will lose what they sought to save, for some even their eternal souls (Mt. 7:21-23)!

As we all will be tempted – for ”we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God” (Acts 14:22) – then may we all be “sober, and watch unto prayer” (1Pt. 4:7), and seek to worship God “in Spirit and Truth” (Jn. 4:34), letting none of His words “fall to the ground“ (as it were: 1Sam.3:14). And by the mercy and power of Almighty God may we serve the Lord with gladness”(Ps. 110:2), loving one another, and “holding forth the Word of Life” to the lost“ (Phil. 2:16), despite persecutions, “rightly dividing the Word of truth” (2Tim. 2:15). “Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand (Eph. 6:13)! - https://peacebyjesus.net/causeeffect.html

In my 40 years around French people, I
can tell you they have no self discipline.
Many are only children.
They will interrupt you but get pissed off
if you interrupt them.
They love to debate and don’t care about their
actual opinion.
They can start a debate with one opinion, and
then demand you defend that opinion they started with.
They have absolutely no common sense or a sense of
responsibility for the future of the Earth. They just don’t care.

I can’t disagree with you. We are SO soft in this current age.

Ever see the movie Wall-E? Humans progressed to such a point that they left a destroyed earth and lived on massive space stations with every whim met by AI robots. They couldn’t even walk because their muscles atrophied and they weighed 500 lbs.
