For those say in their 60s or 70s here. When you were in your 30's or 40's did you have the feeling that the world was a fucked up place? So much has been going on since I entered adulthood in the early 2000s and I feel like it's getting more and more intense. It's never ending.

Is it unique? Or has it always been this way?

Yep, only in my 50s but this is correct. All the shit under Reagan, Nixon etc, decades of meddling in the middle east before that. A century of oppressing South America. All the labor struggles. It's like the increase in the diagnosed cases of autism. The number of cases didn't increase. Only our awareness.
