Things have gotten better and progress has been made from times past, it just seems worse now because we have more access to information. We've come far, and have further to go!

Oh, look, a bastardization of statistics to defend the status quo wrapped up in "positivity" bullshit so if you call out their nonsense, you look like an asshole.

There's a special place in hell for people like @Godric.

People are saying these aren't even true which I believe, but also what this does not take into account is that the ability to take care of humanity has expanded far, far more than we're allowing to actually happen. And if the right wing has anything to say about it, we'll do even less caring for our people. We could easily solve world hunger with today's wealth but instead we have people that could burn a million dollars a day and still be rich for many years
