Modern civilization provides no NET benefits, and in many ways it significantly fails to fulfill it's role.
It has not mitigated any of the risks you would experience in a wild primitive life,
I am not even going to elaborate on the absolutely inhumane conditions of the third world as those are obvious and easy pickings, instead I am going talk of the supposedly shining beacon examples of modern civ.
The entire point of civilization would be to produce order, security, guarantees.
But in our modern life, we still experience uncertainty, insecurity, exhaustion, harm and scarcity no less than our pre-neolithic ancestors.
People still struggle to make ends meet, juggling jobs and "side hussles", moving from place to place as convenient. Skipping meals, couchsurfing.
Even in spite of acquiring an education through years of debt and work, there is no certainty or security in/of employment.
These are environments of fierce competition, you can try as hard as you can, and make sacrifices to your physical health and do everything right, as every tryhard is doing, you still might not qualify for that college, or job or promotion.
You're also not safe from physical harm, at any point anywhere you can be killed or injured in a fight, vehicle or machine accident, or while doing some active hobby or sport which you do to keep healthy unironically. If you survive you might end up with CTE, loing a limb or paraplegic and disabled, and then you make a choice whether to get fucked or spiral further into debt so you can perpetually wageslave until you're 70 and then get fucked.
I don't even need to talk about dating, you all know how fucked that is. But it's not just for us.
Half of 30 year olds are not married, divorce rate is 45% (US, similar percentage throuhout anglosphere), people have an average of 10 sexual partners in their lifetime.
Relationships just aren't working, like everything else, it's a world of uncertainty and unreliability. So you're pretty much alone anyway.
Let's talk about health, yes, people say one of the greatests things about techological progress is moderm medicine, better health, etc. That people in the pre-neolithic just caught a cold or got injured and died at 23.
THIS IS THE MOST RETARDED TECHCUCK CLAIM, completely unsupported snail IQ garbage, where do I begin.
Most diseases are thanks modern civ, people living off of tightly packed domesticated animals who shit where they eat. People living tightly packed and shitting where they eat. Shitting coughing and sneezing in their sardine-can-like concrete homes and offices.
Not to say obesity, heart disease, high blood pressure, arthritis, stroke, lung cancer, colon cancer (ass cancer), skin cancer, eye cancer, myopia, mantits, breast cancer, osteoporosis.
All caused by technology "freeing" us from physically-demanding labour and providing us with efficiently produced industrial garbage nutrition. Now, you still work your ass off, butt literally.
TL;DR
Regardless of what you do, you could do everything "right" as you were told but life is still a gamble.
I don't see the point in living in modern civilization, it's just as uncertain and dangerous, and I am still alone, poor anxious and overworked. It is not any more risky than living in the wild, at least there I would be free from the worst predators, humans.
