Isn't our age amazing?

1 Answer

Answer :

I can communicate with every person on this planet that has the internet connection. I can, through several clicks, see almost any place in the world. I can learn and get in contact with anyone and anything, no matter how far away geographically and historically is it from me. I can learn pretty much anything about pretty much anything I want. I can read texts from several centuries ago, in any digitalised library in the world, see and hear all the remnants of thousands of years of history. I have access to the whole world’s knowledge. (almost) I have the whole world in my hands, it’s one click away from me, and I don’t even have to leave my house. Besides that, I live in the most peaceful era ever. The last major military conflict happened 72 years ago, there are no major illnesses and catasteophies, we’re slowly reaching peace and equality we’ve been trying to achieve for decades, perhaps even centurues now, and everyone can find and offer help about anything, considering the ability to connect with other people with and share knowkedge, information and experience. Now, more than ever, humans are united rather than tribalistic. By being interconnected, we’re learning about each other much more, and are becomming more aware of many things that have been hidden and ignored all this time. Technology is constantly advancing, and we’re now considering what our grandparents couldn’t even dream about. What was fantaasy is slowly becoming reality now. For the very first time in human history, education is almost completely free and is actually a choice, rather than a privilege, for most of the world at least. Yes, I’m very, very glad to live in this era, and I wouldn’t change it for any other.
