I would argue that we are living in a all time high of human generosity, on a scale previously unimaginable. It just isn't carried out on a personal and emotional level.

Does human generosity scale though? I’m not so sure. Because we’re also living in a time of human hunger, human thirst, and human displacement previously unimaginable. The generosity doesn’t seem able to keep pace.

I fundamentally disagree. I think the percent of humans suffering from hunger, thirst, sickness, and displacement is also at an all time low.

Uh yeah this is totally wrong. Life has never been better for the vast majority of the world's population.
