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.

I sometimes get discouraged about how much deception, corruption, and fraud there is in the world today. But then, I realize that all of this is out in the open, just waiting for people to discover it and recognize the truth.

It can be frustrating when people refuse to see, but it’s clear more and more people are waking up.

It’s horrific at times, but you’re 100% right. It’s a great time to be alive.

I feel the exact same things. But then I zoom out (study history) and the picture becomes a lot more clear.
