The Wondrous Web-Surfer!

In another, another, another universe...

The end of the third millennium heralds a colorfully bleak future.

Humanity's advancements in nearly every aspect of society over the centuries has mended a world riddled with problems; everything from climate change and energy crises to famine and treatments for multitude of diseases. Society will never be a perfect futuristic utopia, like their ancestors had hoped, but humanity can tip-toe around the edges between the land of living and the paradisiacal dead.

However, this conception of society is uprooted when one considers two (and a half) questions.
Firstly, why does humanity feel so… stagnant in terms of everything over centuries, despite such exhaustive efforts to bring about change
Despite being around for nearly 200,000 years, humans find themselves still haunted by the same problems: a notable lack of world peace, discrimination, poverty, and — most notably in this day and age — an extreme surge of crime. Even in spite of the number of superhumans that have popped up over the years claiming they wish to make the world a better place, it's… not better. Maybe a little worse, actually.
Is this because of destiny aiming to preserve the integrity of the soul, or is it just human nature?

The second question's hangs onto the first. Why's the crime rate so fucking high? It's more than ridiculous, actually.

Bonus question related to the second: it feels like the guys supposed to stop said crime aren't doing shit. It's more like putting mini bandages on a gaping wound; failing to address the roots of the whole crime problem.

When a guy gets bitten by a spider in the middle of his suicide attempt, he's forced to try grappling with the weight of answering these questions through the power of… violence. It seems to be working, so maybe he can pull this off.
