Yes:
• People are becoming less honest and not scared to lie. Moral goodness is going down. Less church going and so less spiritual. They are not scared to distort facts or fiction
• Yes. Nagas dont spend enough time to find out the truth. We are too quick to jump to conclusions and make assumptions.
• Yes. The difference between fact and fiction is becoming more and more fuzzy and unclear. Our society is not helping either because we are fond of gossiping and indulging in rumour mongering.
• The line between truth and lies is not fading by accident. It is being erased with intent. Political groups and online echo chambers have learned that certainty spreads faster than accuracy. Social media locks people inside curated bubbles where repetition feels like proof. Public figures then dismiss any unwelcome fact as fake, as if reality were optional. Truth is no longer tested by evidence but by allegiance. When facts become tribal property, honest debate is no longer possible.
• Yes. Our Naga society is too emotional. It has no balance. As emotional people we tend to come to conclusions too quickly without ascertaining the facts or establishing the truth first. This makes us all very reactive people.
• The Mass Media in our state is still struggling. Most of the new media especially the popular news channels in youtube do not follow journalistic code of ethics. This is bound to lead to more unverified and rumours.
• Yes. Unfortunately, the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false is becoming very unclear. In this work of fake news and overdose of information in the social media, the weak and vulnerable societies will become even more compromised. In Nagaland, there is no authorised body to check the random content on social media and with a lot of unverified news, the distinction between fact and fiction is becoming more unclear.
• Because we love money and we don't have any faith in God Jesus Suggestion:- As a christian state, we need to have what Jesus said in the holy Bible, and change ourself and show the world "The example of the Christian life"
• Firstly, the gradual influx of individualism is causing individuals to assert their opinions as absolute, that there's no outside voice possessing the right for a counterargument. Another factor but interlinked with the former is the emergence of multifarious voices, opinions and perspectives through social media. There is no absolute statement, and everyone is at liberty to deem anything as relative. I opine that the post-modern-new-age renderings with statements like 'you own your life', 'you are all that it takes to be you', 'what you think or say is right', 'what others say is secondary', etc., are sabotaging facts and truth. If such self-empowering statements are over exerted or taken to the extreme, everything becomes relative.

No:
• Because..., I'm not built like that.
Others:
• In our state, the truth always remains hidden. Maybe its for the better because when the level of corruption and misrule is so blatant, it may only lead to more problems.
