We have no longer any "great struggle" to concern ourselves with. Recommended film: Adam Curtis' Hypernormalisation.

Not sure I understand you. Nor do I understand why I've been downvoted into oblivion.
Also - I have watched Hypernormalization. Found the facts that it presented to be highly interesting. Worth watching just for that. But the overall narrative I found to be pretty unconvincing.

I wanted to say that, basically, life is so easy now compared to previous generations. In the West, we have mostly all that we need. As a result of human psychology, our brains seem to create "non-problems" in order to occupy themselves, or at least the mass media are exceedingly good at this...

Ah yes I agree. And I think that this kind of phenomenon creates more suffering than the natural struggle to survive.
