I think this is probably still happening today in a lot of ways that we will look very ignorant to future generations.
Stress (work, money, social), loneliness, the whole “gig-economy” that’s become so ubiquitous that we stopped using the term even though people are still working three jobs to survive. Constant news of violence around the globe, school shootings. The worsening commodification of our attention through social media. Shit’s still fucked.
Definitely. A bit of a curse of progression. The older generation will be totally ok with things that will be found abominable in the future. My money is on eating non-lab grown meat will be a big one as well as the ones you mentioned. Not saying that the older generation is right here, I’ll take my licks in the future for being in a state that is less than open revolt over the state of things now. Shit is indeed fucked.
