Hot take. Would you really disagree that things have been fucked for the last 3+ years? Regarding "progress in general," at this point, it doesn't even feel like we're moving in the right direction in many ways unless you're a Christian billionaire.
Yeah, that's basically what I was thinking. The world's starting to feel more & more chaotic with good things turning bad. Climate is fucked, political tensions are high, rogue technology is active everywhere (I don't even mean AI, just bots and privacy in general), people in power are taking rights away from women (and I don't just mean third world countries, America) etc.
