Do you think that today's society over-simplifies or over-complicates at all? Do we tend to do one over the other?

I think in a general sense yes. As for in what particular ways, its hard to say but I think vaguely speaking that people tend to do one or the other.

I agree with stephinika, that in general yes society over-simplifies or over-complicates. It's one or the other. Why can't there be a middle ground.

Yeah i think we do.
For me, though, some things i over-simplify but others i over-analyze.

It over simplificates in the sense that we constantly reduce things to just a silly stereotype or label. We assume things, sometimes, without thinking about the full reasonings behind that. We don't always consider every single detail or every single person's feelings and thoughts. I'm sure it over-complicates too, but my brain is fried and I can't think of something specific right now... |

Humans tend to proceed by trial and error; so the tendency seems to start by overly complicating things first, only to throw it all away when the sand castle collapses on itself. After these preliminary steps are taken, a reasonable agreement between the two extremes may be eventually reached.

Seems like it's all about the extremes.
