There's always been gun violence
There have always been wars
What makes the current ones so much worse? The fact that people just mainline content telling them all about how miserable they should be, usually trying to make it seem worse than it actually is just to get clicks or views

Agreed. At a few times during the cold war we were much closer to nuclear destruction than anything we face now.
Climate change is something we will have to deal with and obviously the US potentially going off the rails is a problem but things will pass. There are signs we are close to peak inflation with fuel and shipping costs decreasing from their peaks.
