Just about every time period sucks

The only time period that was enjoyable was only enjoyed by a small portion of the global population at any one time

Many people on this thread like to point out the 80s, 90s or early 2000s were great ... it is true for only about maybe 10% of the global population ... the rest were living with developing nations with very little and everyone still struggling like they always had

The world has always been the same throughout history ... I'm guessing about 70% of the population lived just enough to get by ... 29% lived with absolutely nothing ... and 1% lived with everything

And it's still the same today.

We are a boring, dumb, ugly species on a boring, dumb, ugly planet in a boring, dumb, ugly universe.

You were spot on with the species.

Absolutely and in all ways incorrect about the planet, or universe.

That’s just your boring, dumb, ugly human brain tricking you into thinking that.
