Degradation is always bad!

Degradation is always bad.That's right, because what can be good in the obvious signs of illness? And degradation is practically the same disease. Or, to put it in scientific terms, the dynamics of reverse development, regression, which generalizes the name of the process of decline and gradual destruction, which can be applied to the most diverse areas and spheres.

Here, for example, the term “soil degradation”, widespread in agriculture.

This in this case means that fertileAt one time, land became unsuitable for exploitation under the influence of various destructive factors - salinity, dust storms, improper plowing, excessive chemicalization, and many other causes and consequences. For the most part, the people themselves are to blame for such an outcome, which, in turn, indicates a loss of agricultural skills, but what is this, in turn, if not the degradation of human thinking?

There are many examples in the story of howblossoming states and seemingly omnipotent empires gradually fell into decay and desolation, losing their former power, and, in the end, ceased to exist because their internal structure, figuratively speaking, affected metastasis of degradation. The lack of fresh ideas, the reluctance to change the old, already outdated order, the refusal to move to new forms and methods of socio-economic relations - this is what creates the preconditions for the degradation of society is gaining strength and becoming increasingly irreversible.

But more often under the degradation is meantmoral decay of an individual who ceases to reckon with generally accepted moral and ethical norms and places his egoistic desires above the interests of others. Having given in to pernicious inclinations, such as drug addiction or an alcoholism, these people lose moral and spiritual reference points, degrade both physically, and morally. However, spiritual degradation is not always the result of obvious defects. You can lead quite respectable lifestyles, but at the same time do not care at all about raising the cultural level, satisfying your spiritual needs at the expense of the lowest samples.

Моральная деградация – это в наши дни во многом a consequence of the lack of control and commercialization of the media, including the Internet. The propaganda of permissiveness, bad taste, kitsch, frank vulgarity, in abundance supplied to the masses, erode consciousness, corroding from it the idea of ​​true values. The negative impact of the so-called “mass” culture manifests itself even in such seemingly trifles as the habit of illegible (and often out of place) use borrowed words. This is not only a sign of clogging vocabulary, but also undoubted proof of spiritual impoverishment.

So degradation is a disease process,the result of which is known in advance: decay and complete destruction. It can be stopped only by the will and striving for purposeful development on the scale of both an individual person and the whole state.
