It's not just technology that's eating away at console sales, it's also the fact that 1) nearly everything is available on PC these days (save Nintendo with its massive IP), 2) mobile gaming, and 3) there's a limitless amount of retro games and hacks or mods of retro games to play and dedicated retro handhelds are a rapidly growing market. Nothing will ever come close to PS2 level sales again. Will be interesting to see how the video game industry evolves over the next decade or two. I suspect subscriptions (sigh) will start to make up for lost console sales.
So to recap, you're saying, "don't worry about what's going on in the US right now, because you still have it better than most of the world"
Just because something could be worse does not mean that 1. It's nothing to be concerned about 2. That we shouldn't take steps to improve the situation.
Things can always be worse, so this "logic" is always applicable. It's a vacuous argument. Even if you lived in the country with the worst homo/transphobia in the world, you could tell the person, "well, at least your alive."
Moreover, there's nothing constructive about this line of thinking. If people actually lived by this logic, we would live in a static world, because "it could be worse."
If you like this approach, I highly recommend Mathematics: It's Content, Methods, and Meaning by Kolmogorov. He uses this same approach, but applies it to many more concepts in math (about 1,000 pages!). In fact, I think I actually heard about that book on this site, so I guess I'm paying it forward.
This approach was to align with the Soviet philosophy of dialectical materialism, which claims that all things arise from a material need. Not sure I'm fully onboard with the philosophy as a whole, but Kolmogorov's book was really eye opening.
