Being a part of the system and in the system I do not think we can get an objective enough perspective to ever judge better or worse definetively. History one might think we'd be able to judge, but it is written biasly by the winners as well. We're basically cells in a body, if each of my cells could think, I know that they couldn't know what was actually going on with my body. Everything would be colored by the cells around them. So I am essentially agreeign with Cyn, one can really only view one's own space, and even then one cannot (probably) look at it objectively enough to know whether things have gotten better or worse with how bad our memories really are, not even to mention our changing values of what is good and not. Really puts a hard spin on the nature of our reality and what truth can be.
