Irony: is our self awareness too late in the game?

Mass or collective narcissistic injury:

As a species    Nature uses virus to humble us, small, interdependent, defiance and contumaciousness punished

Omnipotence.   Limits to our growth, helplessness headless chicken

Omniscience    Failure of grandiose medicine

Vulnerability   We are all fallible and dead

Fragility     Our social institutions broken

Anxiety    No future, economic or otherwise

Failure.     Ask the young
