I would recommend reading some history books before saying these are depressing circumstances.

Just because some people have suffered through worse doesn't mean that you can use that to invalidate someone else's suffering.

But when, for the vast majority of history, the population faced a much poorer, more monotonous, and less free existence than what the modern worker faces then you jolly well can.

It isn’t someone’s personal/unique suffering that I am invalidating. They are saying that we are having uniquely depressing times _in general_ which if you take a brief look at history is laughably invalid.
