    I think about the good things that people do and are capable of doing, yet despite this the world seems like an irredeemable shithole and that we are living under a kakistocracy. I’m not saying any particular nation, but the overall trend across the world.

    To use a simple example: there isn’t even one single nation that has banned factory farming. My comment isn’t specifically about animal ag, just that this was something that readily came to mind.

    We (as a species) could do so much good, yet we are squandering it for the sake of greed, religion, hatred, spitefulness, or whatever else is driving people to be shitty.
