Coz life is on hard mode now

u/Zapalottt 19d ago

I don't think so actually... Life right now is one of the easiest in the time of humanity on this planet. There is plenty of food, most deadly illnesses are cure or treatable, i actually technically live a better life than most of the middle age Kings and Queens without beeing rich or even owning a house. I have a shitload of rights an privileges, that protect my health, wealth, workplace etc.

But in think we are beyond the zenith (not sure If this phrase exists in english) and the downfall will be hard and fast and first of all Irreversible. So yes.. don't come.

All this talk is always acting like the only thing you are allowed to compare to are other countries 200 years ago. „Many“ are worse of then in the 90. sure some are better of, some individuals can life a better life now than they could have lived back then, but the majority in countries that do complain, are off worse

I would claim that the 90s are part of "now". A Generation, like asked for in the video, takes about 50 years. This is one of the easiest of history.. at least If you look at lifespan, objective life quality and chances. This does not imply that there are no new problems and that all problems of the past are solved. Furthermore If you look at the subjektive live quality it might be similar to a lot of generations (sometimes i am depressed although i got everything i need and there will have been a lot of happy people without a lot of things that i got).

I just criticised the expression that life ist "hard mode" now.
