Okay I'm nearing 50 so can only comment on those years but seemed up to say 2000 things were going better (okay not awesome but I so felt in the late 90s people were being more accepted countries got along better) cold war technically ended, tthough obviously not given Russian intrusions to everyone's shit, seriously Russia FUCK OFF. You want to be invited to parties? Play nice for a fucking change.

But there's been a serious downgrade to acceptable leadership since 2000 in western democracies (noticlby one with the largest military with the terrorist attack) maybe some more noticable than most but oddly after all that Russia could play their fucking online game of manipulation.

Now I'm not saying it's all due to Russia, if countries spent more on education to see this stuff it'd be ignored. But nope people are educated to think it's all right.

I'm not a scholar but I can see the division being made between people of a country to make it weaker, the worst part is the countries that are doing the weakening are shit and just stirring shit. Like a professional shit disturber.

One day I hope we educate people properly to see the crap is happening. I can see it plain as day and I don't even study politics I'm just a programmer. I may be wrong but if you look at how outside forces influence a country it's so plain, just put a bit in the tiniest crack and go to town.

Maybe if we saw we were more similar than apart we could figure out how to grow. I know it's a pipe dream, I'm an idealist but I really just want us to grow as a species. Imagine if we could put all our budget into space resources, more for us, get along and cooperate. Sure some may live worse but many so much better. Nope we got to bicker what we got here for silly fucking reasons.

The world is in a leadership crisis
