So pulled your phone out your POCKET and started to watch several VIDEOS on your phone of something trivial. Then jumped on the INTERNET to have a discussion about with several THOUSAND strangers who share a common interest. Probably all the while taking a shite.

Yeah, life sucks. We are definitely going down hill. Horrible time to live in.

As long as you don’t get some disease that is easily treatable/preventable by modern medicine.

Absolutely.

The age of information has benefits and drawbacks. More information is available to the average person than ever before. However people are choosing to become more biased and prefer information that confirms their bias instead of learning new things.

On top of that, the birthrate among the most intelligent is dropping like a rock while still remaining high among lower IQ people.

We're breeding ourselves into a society incapable of dealing with opposing views and lacks the ability to deal with them.

And we've regressed? People are complaining of NFL players taking a knee during the anthem, Confederate statues, and oddly enough - vaping competitions.

Yes and it's not even remotely in question IMO.

I was strolling through YouTube and came up on vaping competitions.

No, you can just see it a lot more easily nowadays.

We're in a MUCH better place now than we were 50 years ago, not really up for debate.

You and most everyone else (including me) wouldn't last a day in 1850.
