11:30 – The modern phenomena of social justice and social media have led us to a point where nothing seems to be “none of my business” anymore. Social media means we can immediately comment and criticize the actions of people around the world, and social justice teaches that we must correct the thoughts and actions of others, even when they don’t affect us. Gormley says we’ve lost the old way of thinking, where what other people do is just not our business. Do you think the world is a better place when people mind their own business, or does that just let people get away with bad behavior? Call 1-877-332-8255 and let us know what you think!
