I mean it feels people with medium to high education levels are starting to speak in non-specific manner and use too much fiction and metaphors, which I call bullshit.

They don't even add their experience or even mention other people experiences. They don't use science. Most of their talks seem very emotional.

What the heck is happening?

Why are people willing to output non-rational bullshit to fill space, instead of talking with logic, reason and relevance?

And why now? What change caused this?

The irony of your post is that you complain that people are "starting to speak in non-specific manner and use too much fiction and metaphors" whilst, yourself, not being specific about what you're referring to, and using metaphors (referring to non bovine excrement as "bullshit"). If this was some sort of meta post, I take my hat off to you, otherwise, could you give examples?
