Bro people work the least amount of hours and have the highest quality of life on average right now than through all of human history. It honestly looks like you yourself have too much time on your hands and should be working harder.

Every time I just kind of autopilot glance through comments on threads, I don't even look at the poster's name, but 100% of the time when it's some off-the-wall batshit lunacy, it's Sadre.

I feel like Western society had much more of a community mindset in the recent past. This has gradually evaporated with consumerism and individualism. It surely depends on your local area how bad this has gotten.

It still survives in many places though. I hold the door for someone at my work and they thank me. I do the same at a shop here in the UK and they also say thank you, generally. There's still politeness here. It's less present in big cities vs smaller towns, as anything else is.

I do think though that much of America breeds a kind of individualism that just rots society from the inside out. It sounds like you live in one of those bits. If so, maybe think about leaving.

That's why celebs love it so much. But look at how they transition from pretty to wrinkly and then dead.

Why?

Because SLAVERY IS FUCKING EVIL that's why.
hot take: Slavery never really ended, they just outsourced the costs and responsibilities of slave ownership onto the slaves themselves.

This is a YOU problem. Change your attitude to positive, and I guarantee your entire world with change. Actions are nothing without thoughts. It has been proven that YOUR thoughts create YOUR reality. Read a book on metaphysics and quantum mechanics. I'd suggest "The Dancing Wu Li Masters" to start.

Also false.

Let me explain: your average modern human has a lot of things but lives in a stressful, overpopulated, overoptimized hellscape with very little in the way of the consistent, communal social bonds that characterized all of human history up to that point. Human beings are meant to exist in an ecosystem of extended family clans; aunts, uncles, inlaw, cousins n shit all running around that you interact with day to day. Very few Americans or Europeans have this.

So yea, modern humans have lots of cool things and live 'easy' lives of luxury, but we have to work hard for it. You know what else lives that same type of life? A fucking shitty ass orca at seaworld with a flopped over fin. And juding by the rates of depression, anxiety, suicide, mass shootings, etc, our fins are flopped over too.
