I’d say that compared to being a Ukranian peasant in 1933, a Polish Jew in 1940, or a Carthaginian in 146 BC things are still pretty spiffy.

Pretty much take any group from any time in history, and our worst complaints seem pretty spiffy compared to what they dealt with. I am under then belief that people are getting weaker and weaker.

True, but on the other hand, none of the groups I mentioned had to put up with the Kardashians either.

Yup, we are spoiled. Previous generations would say “my God, I will take your troubles over mine any time, you spoiled rotten wimps!”
