I just very badly need a break from this and this.
That's the difference: now even the goddamn Saudi Arabia can't get away with murdering a journalist. This was unheard of mere ten years ago.
But that's anecdotal. For people getting murdered right now worldwide trends offer little comfort. But globally, violence has been on the decline for decades. This fact has no known explanation, there is no proof that the trend will not reverse (we can't tell because we don't understand the reasons), but nonetheless violence worldwide has been on the decline, the decline was accelerating throughout and still does. We don't have solid evidence that this will not change, but there's even less reason to expect that it will.
There actually is a known psychological effect because of which it seems to many like things are only getting worse. It's called the Prevalence-induced Concept Change. This is when the problem is slowly redefined to be more inclusive, so it seems like things are getting worse when they're actually getting much better. In our specific example, violence is objectively on the decline and lowest in recorded history by a long shot, but the so-called "perceived price of human life" keeps growing, so we're more outraged at ten deaths than we were at a thousand deaths—and therefore more likely to subjectively perceive the world as violent and dangerous.
Nonetheless, the data is objective: violent crime has been on the decline for decades.

etc.
Also note that frontal warfare between nations has been almost eradicated (only civil wars are active at the moment), and there are large portions of the world where war has not happened for decades, i.e. Europe—which used to go to war the most a mere century ago.
Reading this and his description of it is a "regime complex", a tangled web of contradictory mandates.
