Accelerated morality

It has been five days since my return from the China trip. If I had to use one word to describe China, it will be: population. Everything about China is somehow to some extent linked to its population, including its collectivism culture, corrupted political system and bureaucracy. Have I ever seen as many people as I have the ShangHai Expo in my life? I doubt it. The possibility of a queue to an exhibition lasts for more than nine hours has opened up to me for the first time in my life.

Greater population equals competition. Greater population equals the acceleration of moral exposure. Given time, given the extreme, people are pushed to reveal their raw identity as they sacrifice their pious way of life. The truth is no one is better than anyone, only few atypical individuals. Similar to Darwinism, given circumstance we lose our moral conventions in the same way we struggle for existence out of our most hopeless senses.
