Yes, and No. I don’t expect everyone to agree with my opinions, or any body else for that matter.
I have belonged to forums where offering different or unpopular opinions resulted in personal attacks. I enjoy respectful disagreements. Often I agree to differ. Sometimes I change my opinion, mainly when I have made an error of fact.
Depends on how you measure “doing well”
We have yet to learn not to kill each other, how not make our planet uninhabitable. We still allow economic and political systems which result in millions of us dying of curable diseases and starving to death.
Having said that, I have to admit that relatively speaking we are doing well. The advances in my lifetime are jaw dropping. As long as you live in a developed nation. Not so much if you are a subsistence farmer in South America, Africa, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh or the PRC for example.
There are some individual people I quite like. I do not like or respect homo sapiens as a species. We are aggressive and self interested. (innately greedy and selfish)
