most people this glum are people who think everything is falling to shit and wish things were the same as “back in the day” and lean conservative, so that’s why. I’m not young either. I get it some libs are doom and gloom but only since trump, so if he would have said the past 5 years were hell I might have poked in the other way.

I just hate this idea that the world is falling apart when it is definitively better than it ever has been and continues to vastly improve.
