What would be the worst era in human history? Would it be the present, WWII, the Middle Ages, the stone age, or some other time period I haven't mentioned?

For me, I would say WWII (use of nuclear weapons in war, genocide, tens of millions dying, etc.) or the present (us political polarization, climate change wiping out all life by 2100, the rise of police states in the western world)

WRONG THREAD!!

You should have posted this in the historical discussion thread. I made that thread for a reason you know, not as a thread that people could ignore so they could make their own, plagiaristic threads. My thread is all-encompassing so we don't need more than one thread about history.

Ok, I honestly didn't know there was a historical discussion thread here. And I wasn't trying to plagiarize anyone when I made this thread. That was not my intention; my intention was to see if the early 21st century really was the worst era in human history. I am very afraid that the human race will go extinct in my own lifetime due to climate change, and I think that was unfair. And with the political polarization in my country , and the sociopath that we call the president making things worse all the time, I felt depressed.
