I began to closely observe the external world in the late 1960s and 1970s. I have no reason to doubt the authenticity of my memories, and I am confident in asserting people are much uglier than they were in my youth. It was not unusual to see an attractive person in the late ‘60s and ‘70s. In fact, it was quite common.
It’s hard to look at most people nowadays. It’s not just because most of them are fat. Even those who are of a somewhat normal weight are unpleasant to look at.
What could be the reason for the deterioration in physical appearance? Lack of sunlight? Radiation from all of our electronic devices? Environmental and psychic pollution? Micro plastics? Exponential increase in the intake of pharmaceuticals?
There are frequent news stories about young people losing interest in sex. Most young people don't fuck. Can you blame them? Even an ugly person doesn't want to fuck an ugly person. The human race will disappear due to ugliness. Sad.
Well, now that I think about it, it’s a not only human beings who have declined aesthetically. A similar decline can be observed in architecture, landscape, literature, cinema, music, economics.
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but all these declines began with the increase of Ronald Wilson Reagan in 1980.
