This world is also much more chaotic and superficial and expensive than it used to be. There’s also more pills, more diagnoses, and less accountability. And that’s coming from a place of depression, and having grown up with a BP parent. Even though my generation was less supervised in general, I feel that now we are living in the most scary time.
It is a scary time. Those of us who were alive during the Cold War thought it was bad then. I believe it is worse now. My friend and I were talking about this. He was like what do you think America will do. I told him, what we always have, exactly what we must. The new generation is just green; they get some experience and wisdom, we don't have to make this place great again; we already are.
