Yup, and, aside from the fact that humans were never made to do or be anything by anyone, but just evolved by chance, I still can't recall a moment in our shared collective history when most people alive were bohemian artists, traveling all the time and having lots of creative hobbies and aspirations.

Afaik we went from barely surviving on what we could hunt and gather to barely surviving in the farms of the nobles, to barely surviving in the factories of the masters, to at least having some level of food security (at least in the developed world). I don't remember a time when we were better off than now, with more free time and more security.

Not even in Stalin's Russia or Castro's Cuba were most people living the idyllic bohemian life everyone here seems to be clamoring for.
