I feel yah. I was like that too. Until I read a bunch of optimistic stuff from Stephen Pinker. I always say to give "The Better Angels of Our Nature" a try.
- mindcrime 5y agoI always say to give "The Better Angels of Our Nature" a try. I've actually been meaning to read that for a while now. Guess it's time to dive into it.
- kleer001 5y agoIt's a beast. Just looking at the graphs is good enough ;) Additionally I found "The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion" by Johnathan Haidt illuminating too. Like, everyone isn't crazy, we just have different priorities and hashing them out is good. And that's not a door stop, it's a fun read.
