If you're going to live in this world in this time in history, you have to pull your head out and look around you beyond just the immediate irritants and annoyances. Your personal desires may not be the center of the universe after all.

You miss the point completely

I amm sure there were Valeries on the slopes of Vesuvius telling the others to stop bitching about a little ash in the air and keep on with the plowing which was the really important thing.

No, my point is perspective. Not moral relativism, not denial.
In the whole world, this is now the best place.... and you find it intolerable. Compared to the volatile situations around the globe, if we are on the slopes of an erupting volcano, everywhere else is the target for an incoming comet.
