We live in an era of Tucker Maxes, Kanye Wests and Machiavelli Moms. Since you have a background in the Classics do you think there will be a big push against egoism, narcissism, and self-aggrandizing behaviour? Do you think there will be a trend towards stoicism, emotional intelligence, and self-awareness? A Kantian push the treats people not as an ends possibly?

Thank you for your responses. One last question how should we live in a world where there are those who are trying to make it a worse place everyday? Fight fire with fire? Avoid them?
