Alright be grateful if you want but don't go around telling people what they should and should not be grateful for ffs. So I should be grateful when in 100 years there may no more be wars and diseases, death and starvation, crimes, religion and corruption? But of course, I need to be grateful because Wolfieze from reddit said so.

Yeah have fun telling yourself you're one of the lucky ones before you end up in the history books of future generations as a case of extreme hardship and ignorance. I'm sure those in paradise would agree with you.

I’m curious to hear why you feel this way. You’re saying the near future will bring extreme hardship? That’s a.. refreshingly pessimistic stance around here

No, I'm saying right now will not look much different than the 19th century in the future. We invented penicilin and some cool tech, but we're still plagued by all the same miseries. In a future without all these they'll look back and say the same things with even greater certainty about us.

I'm not saying that's the guaranteed future we're headed, no one knows where we're headed. But you see these kind of people dictating others happiness all over the place. Yeah sorry buddy, telling someone to just be happy doesn't help. Telling them to be grateful is even worse when you have no idea what they're going through. It basically boils down to "But someone is having it tougher than you!" Yeah no shit there is. Other peoples misery doesn't help me though.
