While watching a video on a popular site awhile ago, I seen a concert where young men were gathered around arguing, and a fight about to brew. Standing aside were several people witnessing this spectacle, not trying to deescalate the situation, but standing there recording it on their cellphones. Now, I can understand not wanting to get involved to some degree. In today's world, someone could have had a knife or a gun, and it just wasn't worth getting involved from that standpoint. However, there was a time someone might have tried to stop the fight or to ask them to separate. Instead, we had people just standing around recording the incident so they could play it on the Facebook pages.
Now we have selfies and photo bombs, where we have to interject ourselves into everything. Every personal moment, reunion, surprise, and engagement now has to be documented for the world to see, share, and comment. There seem to be very little we can call private moments, and humility is no longer a virtue.
