I disagree with the above take. I feel bad that my kids have to grow up in the world of today rather than the world of the 90s.

That's because you're listening to your hormones not reality.

Yes of course I am. This is the best possible time quite literally. Barely any conflict. The entire world, including 'poor' countries, are getting richer. Like the world of 2100 is going to be F'ING amazing.

We are making our way to a post scarcity world and it's amazing.

All the negative news you hear everyday are just distractions from what's actually going on.

It is very hard to hear the good news happening “somewhere” when you see the bad news happening in your backyard.

I’m optimistic too, but I can’t help wonder if the post scarcity world, like the future, won’t be evenly distributed.
