The Madison Tragedy: How a Fractured Society Breeds Despair
Update: 2025-09-22
Description
This article reflects on Nietzsche’s warning about the “death of God” and the cultural void left behind when faith, tradition, and community collapse. It uses recent tragedies—including a teen shooter in Madison and the murder of a healthcare CEO—as examples of how alienation and nihilism manifest in destructive ways. Ultimately, Croaky argues that society must restore purpose through faith, community, tradition, and the creation of beauty in order to resist the spread of despair and violence.
