When you really dissect it, when you look at technological philosophies, we as man have created a world where we are content.

You really haven't shown any way in which this is the case. You've just said, "When you get past the constant strides forward in technology and shifts in culture and morality, humans are actually content exactly as they are" without any demonstratable proof that this is so. I think all the available evidence points the other way.

When people talk of the freedom of writing, speaking or thinking I cannot choose but laugh. No such thing ever existed. No such thing now exists; but I hope it will exist. But it must be hundreds of years after you and I shall write and speak no more.
