Have you ever felt that the morals of today's youth are down? Well, I want to talk about this, so stay tuned!

 "Swipe Left" Mentality

I'm sure you all know about the "swipe left" mentality, right? Or not? Okay, I'll clarify what swipe left mentality is first. "swipe left" mentality in today's language can be referred to as "cancel culture" or "quick dismissal mindset", which means the tendency to quickly delete or reject something without giving it a chance to be considered further. 

Now, this is a problem for our morals. I often see young people who easily judge people based on their appearance or social status. Come on, we need to be more empathetic and fair!

Losing Traditional Values

Talking about morals, we also have to look at traditional values, my friends. I feel that many young people have forgotten values such as manners, helping, and respecting parents. These values are really important for shaping our character as individuals.

Lack of Social Concern

We live in a digital age where everything is fast-paced and instantaneous. But, unfortunately, this also makes many young people less concerned about the social issues around them. From the environment, and poverty, to mental health. We must build awareness to care more and help others!

Conclusion

I don't want to be "preachy" or nag you all, but I just want to make you realize. Morals are really important, my friends. I hope we can all be more aware and try to improve ourselves, starting from small things. We can be a better generation, right?

So, let's be a generation with good morals together! We can do this together!
