    you’re pushing the “But on the other hand most hard quality of life indicators are up globally” line but like, the number of negative things you’ve listed is more than the positives.

    I mean, it’s almost as if you are manipulating yourself into questioning and rejecting reality*. You should stop doing that

    *there is no one word description for this action. Believe me, I looked, and I’d use it if it existed.

      Sure, that’s fair enough. I was emphasizing more on the critical short term things like food security (something that can kill in weeks) than on long term things like climate change and environmental destruction (something that can kill in decades).

      I think my point was that most people focus only on the bad things that are happening without acknowledging the massive good things that are also happening in the world.
