Don't mistake the past for a utopia. Don't mistake the present for the limit of human civilization.

Fully agreed, the world is shitty, it used to be shittier... and I pray that it gets less shitty tomorrow, and we need to do everything we can to not slide back and revive the shittiest parts of our history.

Now, put a tiny upsidedown eye in the center of the triangle and really wind up the idiots. 😜

And its good that many or most still realise its not on a good trajectory, better to know than be blinded.

I like this. More than one thing can be true at the same time. Our brains are capable of grasping this.

"Utopia is only a dream, make sure you never forget that"

I've frequently felt we're on the verge of a pretty decent eutopia; Maybe not a completely perfect world, but a much better one, where none may needlessly suffer and all receive the help and aid they need.
