Brave New Crappy World
Should we just take it for granted that Aldous Huxley was right? The world of today is now in the hands of whoever makes us feel like we don't have to be responsible for anything. Even when there is social progress, it comes at whims of corporations who are mostly indifferent to the notions of right/wrong, good/evil. This is an accordance with the dystopia that Huxley imagined. Maybe I'm just feeling extra-pessimistic right now, but the losses feel as big as the wins feel small at the present time.
