Even Kings in medieval times lived hard lives.Even people in third world countries live pretty comfortable lives compared to ancient/medieval people.Industrialization reduces suffering and poverty.The physical/mental "suffering" you speak off have more to do with modern diet,lack of exercises,excessive electronic use and other modern day traps.Once people become aware of the ill effects of modern life style,they will merely need to adjust their behavior. We are the most blessed generation ever.
We are not blessed in any sense, we have our own issues that are as big to us as the plague was to people in mediaeval times. That's the point of evolving, everything evolves. As people evolve so do the problems and the solutions. None of this shit is remotely linear, every expression has countless implications.
What are we blessed by?
Higher understanding of medicine and the human body has lead to profiteering, biological warfare. Inhumane experimentation and we've given biology the chance to evolve against us at exponential rates by modifying it . Yeah there's benefits but there's also atrocities
Technology has many faults, I mean bruh kids are killing themselves because of bullying BC it's now Inescapable, Chinese kids live in poverty and die making your blessed phone.
There's levels mate and you're BARELY skimming the surface of this primordial clusterfuck
