I'm conditionally upbeat - the world is shit, but it's less shit now than it was before.
lol ... my sentiments exactly and its a message I have to keep reminding myself about. Things are looking terrible right now .... but they are less terrible then they were before.
The only caveat to that is that in the past, we were incrementally getting less and less terrible to one another and it wasn't really world changing. We are the point now where a small group of people can just decide to end it all for us and start nuclear war to end humanity in one angry blow. We used to be able to kill each other one by one but now we're so sophisticated that we can kill everyone in one shot.
I am obliged to ask if you are a historian, or like me merely a Carlinesque fan of history
I majored in history, but I was just an undergrad. Take that as you will.
