Lots of people perceive the world as being on fire, at its worst etc etc.

I promise you, we have no idea what suffering really feels like. The hell on earth histories of past human societies make most of our realities today look like heaven in comparison.

Not to say the world today is perfect, it’s far from it. There are big problems and a lot of suffering. There always will be. Utopias aren’t real. And we should keep striving to make things better and calling out / addressing the bullshit. But do not take for granted how good things are for the average person on earth today.

We’re living in the 99th percentile of human comfort, safety and opportunity, despite fiat and bullshit criminal governments. That’s just how it is and I’ll admit it.
