In today's society, we undoubtedly face various challenges and difficulties. At times, we may observe that some individuals around us have committed infidelity or engaged in immoral actions, which can create the illusion that the entire world is in chaos.
However, this is not necessarily the case. Here are some reasons why we may notice unethical behavior:
At the individual level,
We are more likely to notice unethical behavior because we focus on moral issues. We are also more likely to notice when someone close to us behaves unethically.
2. Social circle: Our social circle is limited, and we are more likely to come into contact with people who share similar values. If the people in your social circle tend to behave immorally, you will notice it.
The world is not in a state of chaos.
3. Cognitive biases: People make cognitive biases, such as selective memory and confirmation bias. This makes it easier for us to remember and pay attention to negative events while ignoring positive events. Therefore, you are more likely to notice unethical things and ignore ethical behavior.
At the social level,
Social change is inevitable. Values evolve as society changes. Globalization and technological progress have exposed people to more choices and temptations, which may cause some people to abandon traditional moral standards.
This does not mean that society as a whole is in chaos. It simply means that for some people, moral values have changed.
2. Social norms and pressures: Social norms are essential for maintaining order and moral behavior. However, people are subject to various pressures and temptations in society, and some will inevitably make immoral choices under these pressures.
Let me be clear: this does not mean that society as a whole is chaotic. It means that it is the behavior of individuals.
3. Individual and group behavior: Individual behavior is undoubtedly influenced by group behavior. If you are in a social circle or community where people tend to behave immorally, you will undoubtedly see these behaviors.
I want to be clear: this does not mean that the whole world is chaotic. What it does mean is that such behavior exists in a specific group.
The media and the information society:
1. Information overload: Modern society is flooded with information, and social media and news reports expose us to more of it than ever before. Among this information, immoral events stand out and spread more easily, making it seem like the world is in chaos.
It is important to note that media reports often focus on negative events and neglect positive moral behavior.
2. Media influence: The media undoubtedly shapes values and behavior patterns. Some media content unquestionably promotes immoral behavior, which inevitably leads some people to imitate or accept such a code of conduct.
However, this does not mean that the whole world is chaotic. It simply means that specific media content has an impact on certain groups of people.
In summary, immoral behavior is all around us. It is influenced by individual factors such as our focus, social circle, and cognitive biases. It is also influenced by social factors such as social change, social norms and pressures, and individual and group behaviors. However, it is important to make it clear that this does not mean that the whole world is in a state of chaos.
We must focus on and promote positive moral behavior, set an example, and work together to create a more harmonious society.

It's tough seeing so much dishonesty around. Makes you wonder what's happening in people's minds to act that way.
Feeling surrounded by deceit can really get to you. It's important to hold onto your values amidst all that.
Sometimes it feels like dishonest actions are everywhere, but remember there's goodness too, just maybe quieter.
I hear you, it's disheartening to witness. Focusing on positive influences might help shield some of the negativity.
Seeing a lot of immoral behavior can be really distressing. Try connecting with those who uplift you and share your ethics.
