Bill H.My unpopular belief is that popularized cynicism got us here.
Decades of irony, darker and grittier reboots of franchises, edgy comedy, the bad guy winning in the end. This paved the way in the media to accept the absurd, to numb us to horror, to make us harder and crueler and less tolerant.
More and more people began to *embrace* cynicism as a norm, and we forgot how to dream of a better world.
A better future requires hope. :blue_lantern: #hopepunk
