My take on this. I overestimated the power of our civilisation for sure, but since the corona pandemic I know better and become very distrustful. My respect for religious people also increased and I even dealed with such people in a mostly pleasant way. However, I do see humans as very prone to failure regardless of how tradiitonal they are. I just don't throw everything away with the bath water now.
Without calling myself a genious or you stupid or vice versa those memes about the IQ Bell Curve are hilarious and spot on. People who think outside of the box should be cherished for sure.
I just don't see a strictly theocratic society as the solution and I think societal problems will always be part of life. The best situation is one of balance which sadly doesn't tend to last forever because humans are prone to ruining it.
I was certainly among the crowd who ridiculed the 'slippery slope argument' before. People would stay rational about it in my view.
The cartoonist was only too optimistic about the year. But he was also ridiculing it, little did he know he wasn't so far off.

Perhaps more regular right, but true right and not leftie calling themselves such. The mainstream greatly shifted toward the left. I also live in a country where a right wing party gets called far right and is shunned by society and our media, yet very popular. I have voted for them and probably will again.
It's of course a joke calling the PVV in the Netherlands far right and the Greens just left.
VB is economically left wing, but morally right wing, though. There's also that.
