Ok enjoy your fascism
Comment on "I was born in the wrong generation" has turned from edgy to a sad reality for some

People look at the past with nostalgia tinted glasses. Sure, things are bad now, but in the past they were even worse. Out of all the times I could have been alive, this day, with all the medical and social advances we have, is the best/least bad.

You say that like you have access to healthcare.
Google searches used to work, they don't so readily - technology, and things in general, always change(s), but it would be hubris to assume that such will always lead to it becoming "better" (for who? how?)

I do have access to healthcare, as long as I can wait a few years, thanks to the wonders of the NHS. Google is but one company, the privacy respecting OSS I use still works great for me, better than ever in fact, Linux phones and GNOME have come a long way. There is a disturbing right wing trend across the world, but these things come in cycles, eventually it will go back in the other direction, and I wouldn’t exchange it for the other benefits of today’s world.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s awful. It’s just I don’t see earlier times being much better.
