The recent coverage of a dying Dharmendra and his helpless family feels so surreal, an episode of "Black Mirror" almost.
Has Society become this desensitized where as a collective We've lost all humanity?
Whether it's a man being lynched or a car accident, people's first thought is to pull out their phone? It's all about views, first to break a story, sharing disturbing images for followers.
A son trying to make it to his dying father is being blocked, chaos....media trying to get a click in of a sad Son.

Sharing a distressed woman's video crying for her husband is not normal. Making a circus out of a dying man is not normal. Enjoying disturbing videos is not normal. Watching extreme violence/cruelty and then going about your day like nothing happened is not normal. We've all been desensitized. So I have to ask....Koi Zinda hai?
