That's horrifying, I'm so sorry that you've lived through that. I said lower on purpose, I CERTAINLY didn't mean zero - because I absolutely know it happens still.
I felt like the world was getting less toxic and this vile but common social reaction was improving. Like, the 80s or 90s vs the late 2010s felt like society had made massive improvement here. But everything's more fucked right now and people are more unabashedly shitty than ever in our lifetimes, I'm sure we're worse off today and will be for a while now.
Couldn't agree more lol.
