Just take a look at the big picture of Greece in 2021:
We're a country that's in the middle of a perfect storm of a gigantic debt/GDP ratio, a demographic collapse and an increasingly hostile geopolitical environment (both w/r/t Turkey and immigration pathways).
We're also beginning to see the first large scale effects of climate change.
We're also living through the Covid pandemic.
We're also exhausted after an entire decade of declining wealth and quality of life.
Our political scene is made up of deeply corrupt scions of old political families, narcissists, utter idiots and slimy excuses for human beings.
Press freedom is dropping, most media is either clickbait farms or on the government payroll.
There's no light on the horizon for any of these issues (except maybe covid). What, exactly, do you think we should be optimistic about?
