At least in here we are.
I cannot believe the general level of human stupidity. Yes, we have advanced technology, we have extremely competent people developing stuff that will allow us certain level of living standards, medicine, all of this great stuff, right? But that's them, not the most of us.
The most of us are idiots. We all think what we say matters. That my opinion is as good as yours. In this relativist world, empowered by technology, we feel like blogging, using "social media", we don't even know what the **** it really means, but we need to be using it, listing all the important stuff we know. Having an opinion on everything. What you end up is millions of opinions, most of them sucks anyway, colliding with each other. And that's just the internet! Then there's cultural clashes coming up as well. The worst of it, in my superior and important opinion, is the ones who tell you what to think. This arrogant and oppressive attitude, that tells you what you have to like is paradoxical and extremely anti-intellectual, even though, of course, it takes the position of intellectualism and therefore calling shotgun on it and everyone else is the opposite. Which sounds very smart.
We might not go down with wars. I really do believe that it is possible we, as a human race, degenerate becoming more and more stupid in time. Maybe this has happened before, maybe this has never happened before, but I think it is possible. At least that our collective potential is more damaging than positive. Like the plague and the dark ages in Europe. We just might go back at any moment, like hundreds of years. I think we are just that stupid.
