That’s a bit melodramatic but we are facing problems on a rather unprecedented scale.
The connectedness of the world and the fragility of profit maximising economies means that local crises are global and there isn’t much slack to absorb shocks. We’re seeing that now with how badly we’ve dealt with a pandemic (not even a particularly bad one by historical standards) which is an expected event you must plan for. We’re seeing it as we get squeezed by rising insurance premiums as disasters become more likely and so on.
Maybe the Teflon in our teeth wont matter too much, maybe we will somehow address climate change without displacing hundreds of millions of people and the expected refugee crisis, maybe we’ll handle the resurgent fascism in western democracies but that doesn’t change that the system we’re in is fragile and people are stretched to their limits.
