This guy dismisses a lot of virtue about modern society as well.
Like how we are more connected than every before. People without 20 cents in their pocket can have access to reputable science. Our tolerance to other beliefs and lifestyles grows exponentially while death via war declines also exponentially. We got the human genome recorded, and we’re doing protein simulations that require the power of thousands of computers donating processing power. The reason everyone seems to be dying of cancer is because we demolished most other disease related death.
The government is only bad because everyone cheats a little, usually to secure themselves or their families. Almost no one is actually trying to make others suffer.
There is a lot of incarceration. I think law enforcement and prisons should be completely government funded. I don’t think they should have any incentive to arrest people to make ends meet. I think drug addicts should be going to doctors and research scientist, not locked up with rapist and murderers.
I believe education is getting better, and I also believe that we have the capacity to reverse climate change. I think things look way worst than they are, and I see improvements everywhere I look.
I don’t think looking at your phone, or being adeled by the internet is a bad thing. I think it’s something we should pay attention to, but I don’t think it’s degrading society. I think individually people are better than ever, even if we got kids twerking, and people making a gender mountain out of a gender molehill. We used to just casually hate eachother, we used to think violence was funny, we used to say boys will be boys, and then some racial slurs but people themselves are progressing.
