Not considering climate change and covid, but IMO some of the others have been happening all the time and the 24x7 news cycle and the internet make things seem worse than they are. I suppose people who were living in the early 20th century had it a lot worse - TWO world wars, great depression, spanish flu, riots, military coups etc etc. It was just a non-stop shitshow. World's a lot more stable now, all things considered.
The difference is that now it happens simultaneously everywhere ... this has never happened before. And my father is from 1935 and my mother from 1944 ... my maternal grandmothers - already dead - from 1902 and 1906 and my grandfather who I never met from 1876 ... and it has never been passed on to my family the memory of a situation similar to the present.
There are serious conflicts on a global scale of social, military, health, economic, political, climate / environmental etc ...

La diferència es que ara passa de forma simultània a tot arreu... això no ha passat mai abans. I mon pare és del 1935 i ma mare del 1944... les meves àvies maternes - ja mortes- del 1902 i del 1906 i el meu avi que mai vaig conèixer del 1876... i mai s'ha transmés a la meva família el record d'una situació semblant a l'actual.
Hi ha conflictes greus a escala planetària de tipus social, militar, sanitari, econòmic, polític, climàtic/ambiental etc...
