We’re just pushing into meta-modernism, and we need to get there faster. Basically, the cultural journey is: naive idealism -> ironic skepticism -> balanced synthesis. More concretely: first we told stories about how good guys were good and trustworthy. Then we told stories about how good guys could be corrupted. Now we’re trying to tell stories where good guys exist despite the possibility of corruption. It’s useless to believe that everything is so complex maybe good and bad aren’t meaningful. We need the courage to take a moral stand amidst complexity. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamodernism https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamodernism https://youtu.be/5xEi8qg266g https://youtu.be/5xEi8qg266g
