What's changed?

Remember how when the Pope died people were saying that the world had changed and that everyone would now try to be better? You do? Good, because it seems like everyone who was saying it has forgotten. Politics is still a nasty business, people are still killing each other for pretty much any excuse. In fact, I know of no indicators that have significantly changed since the last Pope’s death other than the global BS index which is still following the exponential growth curve it has followed for decades.

So. What’s changed? The sheer amount of hypocrisy one has to deal with every day is up.
