We are all coming out of a pandemic. The worst is over. I hope it is over. A good number of us are anxious to get back to the old normal, where in sport events, concerts contact and general get togethers are common as well as safe. Many are already risking infection even death just to get back to the old normal.

From watching the news, reading Twitter and Facebook I see people are less tolerate of opposing points of view. Then those who have put up with being wronged are now standing up and saying, “I will not take it anymore!”.

Sociologist and psychologist all agree the effects on isolation of our mental health can be manifest in the form of anxiety. The extreme of that anxiety gives way to paranoid thinking. Those with marginal mental health issues cross the line to extreme violet actions.

I believe the paranoid ideas are hatched from movies and television portraying a government or a secret society. Even some SiFi movies depicting of people control by aliens and/or some madman. Invasion of the Body Snatchers is one such example. Then it is amplified through those people using Facebook, Twitter and podcasts of extremist.

The answer to these tense situations is simple. Maybe to simple for some likings. Promoting compromise and looking for common ground. Those involved must realize change cannot happen overnight. The bigger the group the slower change will happen. It takes everybody working together for a common ground.
