Connecting Byung-Chul Han's "The Palliative Society" with Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World"

"In 2012 about 56 million people dies throughout the world; 620k of them died due to human violence (war killed 120k people, and crime killed another 500k). In contrast, 800k committed suicide, and 1.5 million died of diabetes. Sugar is now more dangerous than gunpowder."

-Yuval Noah Harari, "Homo Deus: A History of Tomorrow"
