      The question is whether we can get from here to there without making the planet literally uninhabitable for humans.

      If this were 1000 or even 500 years ago, I'd bet that no one reading this would be alive to see it. But shit moves WAY faster now.

      It took Graeco-Roman civilization over a millennia to go from a few tiny kingdoms to an operationalized empire to a collapsing giant.

      But Euro-American empire started in earnest only a few centuries ago, and was still expansive and improving in our grandparents' time.

      (I say "improving" because overall, justice and inclusion was increasing rather than decreasing. It still wasn't GOOD, by a long shot!)

      The Big Question for Humanity, in my view, is whether our modern technological landscape will smooth our next transition or make it worse.

      My cynical view is that, on balance, increasing technological power has been consolidated in the hands of the oppressors (of course).

      And thus, has added to the rise of authoritarianism by making it easier for Trumps and Putins to manipulate tribalistic fear.

      BUT, it seems equally relevant that the democratizing effects of faster communication has given rise to Arab Spring and Black Lives Matter.

      I DO think that justice continues to increase today. But the pace is slowing down.https://twitter.com/wycats/status/802959790133522433 …

      justice and inclusion seems to be continuing in a positive direction despite the expected setbacks, no?

      how do you measure it relative to, say, the 50s?

          You can measure it by the civilization's view of itself and where it's going. 50s sucked a LOT for a LOT of people…

          But the narrative was that we were moving forward into a bright future, and if you look at the trend from 40s->60s->80s, then it's…

          easy to see the long arm of history bending towards justice. However, the dominant message of 2000s->2010s is a very different tone.

          There have always been exclusionists and wall-builders and authoritarians who come and go. But they're the more dominant voice now.

          Our flirtation with social safety nets was cut short, and technocracy has led to ever greater wealth disparity.

          If Trump is not our Caesar (and he may not be), he's probably our Pompey. Watch for private armies.
