David Graeber made a similar observation in one of his talks [1]. I find it very interesting and pertinent to the current difficulties humanity is currently facing, especially with regards to climate change. One the one hand, humanity is totally capable of destroying our planet. On the other, we've already reached, so it seems, the limits of whats is physically possible. Both problems made us abandon reality and instead embrace virtual reality, and virtual "space time". [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q84ar89Oxo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q84ar89Oxo
