no it's not

humans have desired to be led since the beginning of the species. that's why religion exists. the vast majority of people cannot comprehend the nature of reality thus, sky wizards. this is nothing new.

a very small number of us have figured out how to make shitloads of money off of the rest of everyone, who are all collectively just cattle with credit cards. poor people are always gonna be poor. "wealthy" is a result of an educated worldview, not a work ethic or circumstance.

the plight we endure is that we don't have any major plights. human beings have an innate need to feel like they are fighting for a brighter future, whether that is more foods to gather, animals to hunt or an oppresive force.

the human in 2024 isn't threatened by any of these things, at all. so they decide on their own what their personal plight is, and project that on the rest of society.

we have never had it better, and that's gonna lead to our downfall.
