    Or the more you know the worse and worse the world seems and your only gift for that knowledge is pain

      The funny part about that is you eventually come back around.

      The vast majority of humanity is doing their part. Most in small ways and few in ways that change the world every day.

      Humanity will always prevail with the general masses benefiting no matter how many scummy people try to exploit us, the earth, and eventually other solar bodies.

          Feudalism: God picks the king. Or the king picks the king.

          Socialism: There are no kings, but the central committee, led by the director, who picks the next director.

          Capitalism: spin now and you might be lucky enough to be a king, anybody could be the king! terms and conditions apply

        Alternatively, we will go extinct having never left this solar body because of the long standing history of scummy people that would rather make profit now than address climate change

      Depends on what you’re knowing. The world only starts to look worse and worse when you learn more about geopolitics and climate change. I’ve never had new knowledge about orbital mechanics or lockpicking or 3d printing give me a negative outlook on life
