Over the past year I’ve indulged in most of all Russian novels and have noticed a reoccurring theme in which the characters portrayed are at the hands of deeply rooted philosophical and psychological conversations. Most of their days are spent writing elegant exerts to each other and sitting amongst each other smoking cigars and discussing admirations /flaws in others perspectives and experiences. This could be a personal issue I’m facing but most conversation I’m exposed to on the daily basis are usually regulated to be quite shallow and when the circumstance arises that a quality conversation may present itself I’m awestruck and usually will thank my partner for the conversation. I find it rather unfortunate to have to thank strangers for something that should ideally be abundant.
Where does this disconnect stem from?
To make a very long story short: Occupy Wallstreet. It was a major deviation from how things were supposed to go and measures were taken to ensure it didn't happen again. Nowadays people prefer to talk about the nth reboot of a video game's character's jawline being revolutionary/degenerate in its expression instead.
