Yeah,
I like our world isn't wonderful as is.
Imagine what a peasant from 300 years ago would think seeing what their work would be value at today.
Its peanuts in our perspective, but not starving is a start, eating meat would be a luxury, being able to see a doctor.
Hating ourselves is trending right now, sad.
- chillwaves 7y agoI would certainly hope that 300 years of techonological progress would offer the basics to a "peasant".
- pedro_hab 7y agoI believe the peasant's king would be just as astonished. Do you think our world isn't incredible, and by far the best a human could ever hope for so far?
- chillwaves 7y ago> by far the best a human could ever hope for so far? Wow. I am without words. All I can say is, some people have bigger imaginations than others and being a slave to capital is not always paradise. The bit about the king completely misses the point. Again, I would hope that in 300 years, technological progress UNDER ANY SYSYTEM would afford "miracles" in the eyes of kings or peasants. jfc.
