People are increasingly worried, full stop.

Doom loop news cycle doesn't help.

Social media even moreso than news, for younger audiences. Doom posts gets engagement.

I think people have always been like this. Listen to any two people talk, it is just natural that they will talk about something that makes them nervous. It is like salmon returning to the spawning ground, humans discussing fears.

I remember when we had the word Neurotic. And it described someone frankly more sane than anyone I know now.
