We are not good. Presenting logical data to prove this is a waste of time. Different societies have gone through bad times in the world at different times. When society comes under the control of blind power, injustice, coercion and deceit, then pure souls are devastated. They are immersed in thoughts and worries. That is when all the invaluable literature, music, painting and various cultural assets are written in society.
Medieval Europe, nineteenth-century Russia were not good. That is when we got all the extraordinary literature, music, painting and philosophy that showed the way to people. Now we are not good, so why are our literature, music, painting and philosophy not improving? We see that painters either sit in dharnas at foreign embassies or are busy and proud in creating works of art to decorate the homes of the rich. Where is the pain of the human heart, protest against injustice and demand for justice in art? Literature has become a caricature for the entertainment of jokes and humor. Songs, plays and movies were once a means of protest in this country, now they have become cheap emotions, sexual tickling, display of women's bodies or cinematic marriage comedy shows. Why don't artists and cultural workers in this society express the tears of the hearts of the deceived, oppressed and exploited and the anger of injustice? To understand this, we need to understand ponerology. The word "ponerology" is derived from the Greek word poneros, which is related to the study of the devil, evil or evil mind in theology. The scriptures have made it clear that the devil has two faces. He has an ugly and terrible form and he has a beautiful, attractive, smart, sexy and charming form. If he gets confused by this double face of the devil due to lack of talent and education, such a situation will be created that the exploited and oppressed class will devote themselves to worshiping the devil out of emotion and pave the way for their own exploitation. There is no difference between the devils of religious texts and the narcissists, sociopaths and Machiavellians of the psychological dark triad of modern education.
