... so don't waste time on worrying about the things others already worry too much about. Instead, if you need something to worry about, look out for the problems flying under the radar of public attention who have the potential to be biiiiiig problems

If something is worrisome enough people work on fixing the problem so it does not stick around for 100 years.

Human ingeniousness at it's best. The only time all countries worked together is when the danger was acute and imminent. Even tyrans know they can only rule if they still have a working country to rule, so I think we can trust ourselves to save ourselves when our survival is in peril.
