things always get better

Nope.

Some things get better. Some things get worse. Some things get better, then get worse. Some things get worse, then get better. And occasionally there's a major crisis that shakes the whole mess up across the board. That's what history is.

How you perceive trends and whether or not things are improving or declining depends entirely on which specific aspects of the world you're choosing to focus on. And how willing you are to lie to yourself.

"Progress" is a myth invented by religious nationalists as part of the "American Dream", then indoctrinated into students in school until they believe it as a principle of nature. Things don't always get "better". Sometimes change is an improvement. Some times it isn't. No, the present is not the most perfect and morally justified moment in history.

Life today is exactly what it's always been - a collection of positives and negatives, with most people just trying to get by.
