You definitely are right some things are worse, but I more so meant quality of life in almost every single aspect for people that are alive. No shit, there are atrocities across the world still and things locally suck in many ways to varying degrees for a significant portion of the population in the world. Either way you can't argue I'm good faith that the average humans quality of life hasn't gotten exponentially better over the past thousand years. And I think that trend will continue into the next thousand years.
