I guess the more interesting question is when was the last time that things were generally pretty okay at least? Or has the story of humanity been a strictly monotonic decreasing function. Or how long has it been strictly decreasing or essentially strictly decreasing? Etc. Curious what time you would choose to live in. Not saying this as a 2026-defender lol.

Especially with low birth rate, kids born during COVID have a pretty good shot of lifing a decent life, and raising their own kids who won't realize how important shit is and will hand it back to the oligar hs.
Thatsy whole point.
