I think this might just be the mark of an aging population not cultural shift

This seems to fit into the narrative from @balajis.eth about money flowing and migration towards the east.

We’re too comfy here in Europe. Progress and risk-taking is something ppl do when they feel they have little to lose/couldn’t be worse than this.

Also, correct me if I’m wrong. But a words per million count for the last 400 years is not an accurate representation of the culture. Increase in population and education alone will drastically change the output on any word in contrast to another

“Progress” before consisted of things much more attainable than they do now in my opinion. Also in the digital age, we see everything bad going on anywhere in the world with a camera, it’s bound to have an affect on increased “worry”

Depends on the position of shift in average age though. I don’t think worry is directly proportional to age. More like a bell curve?
