One's social life reflects what one essentially is — one's interests, compassion, love, vitality. Essentially this is one's attitude to life. This is what enables a person to discover and rediscover friendships, associations, engagements and the like. Such attitudes and inclinations are so innately personal yet are true across all strata of society. Today these very 'springs of life' are the most endangered in fast paced and segmented existence. And there are class divisions that prevent this vent to social life across all social strata. There is not much of fellow feeling today within and between social strata. The interests have shrunk; the compassion has dried up; the love is so narrowly defined; and the vitality is all but lost. In the poor and the lower middle classes, there is hardly any social life. The grinding routine of making a living has dried up any time or will to socialize. It is bed to work and back to bed routine. The social life at the other end of the spectrum is cut off in a routine of different type, quite remote from the reach of people at the other end. And this remoteness generates some sort of hostility from the 'other end'. The yawning gap, both economic and communicative, between the two classes, generates — class hatred. Social life of the poor and the lower middle classes then has an essential ingredient — the collective enjoyment and the social bonding in forming a pack, expressing their collective animosity towards the 'other' class, and, occasionally giving vent to their feelings in collective acts of violence.
