How to change violent macho culture? Such culture that rules and dictates globally, you know it? It is not capable of being afraid of itself, of noticing the damage done and how it continues living in people. It does not have empathy to notice or care for the ill and of those hurt. A culture that doesn’t want to change because it is tied to strict codes and power relations which operate with brutal violence, fear, shaming and abandonment simplifying the complexity of life and humanity.

I have lived in that culture, I still live in such world. I’m sick and tired of it.

At the moment I want to know has violence in people’s lives been reduced or is the amount of violence experienced and seen continuously increasing as I somehow suspect is the case. So let me know.
