Living in a smaller world these days, people seem to have gotten more polarized than ever. It's really the same old shit, we just hear about it a lot faster as it happens. Hysteria replaces reason, and a "get them before they get us" toxicity tends to poison the public conscience.

Seems like extremism is going to become even more popular in the days ahead though, due the attention it gets in today's connected world.

So we should just ignore the fact that hundreds of people are killed every month, or even every week ?

Uh, no? Many have been dying in conflicts since the beginning of time. It's not going to stop. There's always going to be discontent, it never ends. So what do you propose we do? Security will be upped, measures will be taken, but the underlying issues will still linger on. As long as there are means for people to harm each other and using idealism to de-humanize each other, this will continue. Hell, people here are at each other's throats over video games. Some people let their tribalism get the best of them.
