It feels to me as if we - and this is the everybody 'we' - are getting worse and worse at looking at things from differing points of view. Our tunnel vision is getting thicker walls with fewer outlets. Our blindspots are becoming invisible to us as we allow our brains to ignore their existence. We are either too lazy or too battered to address the issue, so our inability to really see, hear and feel atrophies further until one day someone breaks into our little haven of certainty and all we can do is strike out violently because we have backed ourselves into a corner and everything that isn't ours must certainly be an attack.
