progress

If progress means having an iPhone on loan, we have.
If development means wasting unlimited hours on YouTube with cheap data we have. If development means switching to the Western way of living nuclear and becoming more individualistic, we have certainly progressed.

If progress is about being overworked and having no personal life, we have progressed. If progress is about selling our soul for money, we definitely have progressed. If an abundance of unwanted materialism is progress, then we have.
