I was born in 1959 - that was over 225 years ago! And I sure feel like it. Only good thing is, I've seen a lotta stuff over the years, and I can tell you this - the world today is no better or worse than it was back then. War was raging the middle east, people were protesting police brutality, and Russia was threatening war to everyone. It seems like the more we progress the more we stay the same.
I was born in 1974 and I have this constant debate with my wife about world politics and historic politics. After traveling the world and reading a bunch of history and living as a poor Native kid in the north ... it's made me realize that the world hasn't changed all that much.
The world changed for the privileged few North Americans for a few decades in the 60s, 70s and 80s and it felt like things were really going to change but it didn't. In the meantime, things stayed the same for everyone else ... the 90 percent of the rest of the world population.
As a first world resident that benefited from major social change ... it feels like there were big changes and that things should progress some more ... but when you look at it with a wider lens, the rest of the world hasn't really moved and has stayed the same, no matter how much it changed in your corner of the globe.
@ininewcrow @lemmyshitpost @tygerprints but if you look more is about 50 years, is not much time to have a notable changes, maybe 50 years in the future you see more changes for best or worst
