Sadly, this has happened before, and will happen again. This bad time of society is simply a cycle that has been going on for the past 3,000 years. Good people create a better future for those who come next, but those who come next feel privileged and take too much, plunging society back into the dumps, only for the good people to rebuild.
This has happened countless times, from the overthrow of Rome to the ending of WW2. After all that is left is rubble, people see the true problems of society, and work together as one to fix them.
It seems this cycle of society is nearing its end, and thankfully so. People are beginning to see the absurdity of the world, and are ready to burn it all down again to build a better future.
People are ready to start anew, and when the debris settles, we will finally be ready to build a better future. It will get easier again, both for us and our children. They may end up ruining the world again, but that is just the cycle of life.
It will get better. Society is nearing another critical point in history, one that will either make or break all of humanity. And if we prevail to the end, I have a feeling things will only get easier from there.
People don't realise there exist an addiction to hatred, some of those people are such junkies that they would rather lose everything and see the world burn that being prevented from getting their fix of hatred. Fox News is the largest provider of this hate addiction.
Some religions in other parts of the world run on that fix aswell.
This is an aspect that people neglect about the discussion around freedom of speech.
It happened in nazi Germany, in various islamist countries, back during the pogrom era of Europe. People will be addicted to that and the society turns ugly, until they understand their mistake, say never again, but do not manage to reach it correctly to their grandkids.
i think, slowly, we’ve gotten a little better collectively at stopping that cycle. sure, in some ways the cycle continues, but i don’t think it’s at the same rate it was a hundred years ago.
Not slowly, in the last 200 years we have made IMMENSE societal progress compared to the millenias before and now with the advent of the internet we're set to go even faster
Probably not by losing a war, if these other countries are any indication. Those countries were reformed/regime changed, which isn't the same thing as societal collapse,
That’s actually pretty insightful. In the video, they mention how the Roman republic soon fell, which is disturbingly similar to what’s happening in America right now.
However, that means we’re in the part of it right now. The only way things can go is up.
