Why does it feel that the evil sides globally are winning. Even evil people are winning. Why?

    Because most people are either stupid, evil, or stupid and evil.

    I don’t know what the solution is, I can only hope its mostly just the “extreme ignorance” type of stupidity and not evil or “willing ignorance” stupidity and after experiencing the suffering they’ve enabled for themselves that they put 2 and 2 together and things maybe recover partially or enough to prevent the end of human civilization as we know it.

        What’s your angle? Insecurity or propaganda? Trying to guilt trip me for having a negative evaluation of the average person?

        Maybe you aren’t part of the majority of people I think of as moronic, I don’t know you in particular, but the question you are asking sounds like maybe you are worried that you would be. TBH, you probably aren’t significantly worse than average by the mere metric of being able to read and write, depressing knowing how many functionally illiterate people there are.

        Of course, go ahead and think I’m actually the stupid one if it makes you feel better, I literally don’t care about that. I care about becoming smarter and more correct perhaps, not what you think of my intellect now.

          Yikes. Relax, brother. I have no angle. I simply inquired into your assessment of our situation.

          The reason I ask is because I see quite a number of people saying that it’s “everyone else’s fault for being immoral and stupid”, and I believe we should be looking more inward, or at least assigning fault to the ones who are responsible (the “powers that be if you will) instead of pointing the finger at our fellow brothers and sisters.

          But, this is just my opinion. And you are entitled to yours. If you want to discuss further, there is no need for the ad hominem attacks 🙂.
