This isn’t about alarmism or some indulgent spiral of critique — it’s about observation. It’s about staring plainly at the obvious, without the usual anesthetics. We are living in a moment where the condition of our systems — medical, political, economic, philosophical — is not just unsustainable, but pathogenic. And what’s worse: it’s normalized. This is a conversation not about hope or doom, but about clarity. About diagnosis. About prognosis. And maybe, if we’re honest, about responsibility.
