Have you read the 4th turning? What I find interesting is the turning always coincides with:
1. Decline in society and standards of living.
2. The populas requesting more centralization.
3. The advent of a powerful new society changing technology.
4. War or an event like war, struggle and so on.
My theory on the positive side? Are we already living through our war, or a 2020's style great depression? We may expect a kinetic war on our soil, but maybe the warfare through centralized companies and governments and we have already been fighting this war since roughly 2008 - or earlier.
The technology that will change the world is BTC, and could be AI.
I think when people look back on this time, say in 2070, it will be obvious that this was in fact our version of a great depression, government oppression and massive regulation bogging down the social construct necessary for society growth.
Everyone knows what the negative theory could be, but I am optimistic because of Nostr, Bitcoin and the community that surrounds us. I think it was @harry_sudock that said we are living through the "good old times", this building phase is exciting.
Its the journey, not the destination.
