the late 80's shootings and massacres were certainly noticeable - and, I would have said signalling a societal problem - hard to say why things settled a bit - too many factors involved. I know it might sound a little silly but, somehow the dawning of the internet for general use - first browser 1990 comes to mind - but, that might have made things go anywhere really.

Currently we have signals of societal trouble - whether we can pull back from the slide- I do not know. I personally doubt it (for a number of reasons), but populations do decide en mass somehow to change ways sometimes.

The current list of Royal Commissions is very thought provoking - but, one thing is that they are investigating things that often have been in place for a long time.

Personally, I cannot recall ever having to be so watchful in society before - in Oz I mean. It seems to me that one has to always be on guard now - from odd phone calls, to dealing with women, to reading miniscule print in insurance documents and being very careful which words they use in conversations - to setting up phone contracts or bank accounts - anything at all really - because what is very clear is that almost any names we know - household names - can't be trusted now

I don't remember it to that extent at all

It's called maturing and becoming more conservative.
