The latest theory I cooked up while walking the dog is that we in the west oscillate unstably between self loathing and narcissism.
Perhaps this has something to do with the atomisation of our world?
The world is really not so impossibly complex....with the right kind of encouragement people of moderate sanity and goodwill should be able to get out of bed in the morning (and I dunno, build their own homes?) without feeling that it is too difficult.
But I see I've started talking about myself again.
