things are uniquely, complexly and extremely bad on a global scale compared to the past

I’m with you. But also, has every generation said exactly this?

Yeah, I imagine a lot of people alive during the world wars thought things were going to collapse any second as well. But I just feel the added background anxiety of the status quo causing the Earth to heat up catastrophically but slow enough to be ignored adds a novel layer of messed up to everything.
