Being quick to criticise without adequate understanding has always been a human failing.

In the past, it took way more effort and time.

It was also much easier to avoid these constant complainers.

Today, all it takes is a few taps on a screen, keyboard, and/or mouse button, and their groans and gripes are all over the media feeds.

Minimum effort, maximum effect.

And, as with all things loud and popular, many more jump on the bandwagon.

The charge that the more savvy people are with social media, the more whiny they get isn't without some truth.

But it isn't all that they are.

There are also a lot of level-headed, thoughtful people out there. We just hear less from them, perhaps because they are actually taking the time to formulate their thoughts.

Give it a little time and you'll hear and appreciate their insights.
