We live in a time without major trials or struggle. It’s lead by and large to people that have little to say. Most people’s lives are by the measure of any other generation in history more-or-less perfect. The average persons quality of life surpass that of Royalty not that long ago - access to exotic fruits in off seasons, all the nations libraries in your pocket, lack of any kind of physical labor. We are all princes of our own kingdoms. Our gripes today are so minor previous generations would have largely found them laughable. It’s why so much of our decent media depicts the past. It’s hard to make a compelling story about social media addiction. It’s been done, but it’s difficult. We’re approaching Brave New World much more quickly than I’d ever anticipated reading it in the 90s.
