What do you think does the future hold for us?

Postby Neihchfer » Tue Jan 22, 2019 2:00 am

What do you think would the future look like? Do you think there would be a nuclear war? or, perhaps, a world lead by one single government.
For me, I think that the future would be cyberpunk. Technology advances way too much, and way too quick. The problem would be that, while technology advances, the mind of the general populace don't. And as a result, technology would be sold as a cheap cost, which will result in it getting to the wrong hands. Genuinely curious of what other people think the future is going to hold for us.

It is a slaughter and not just a political dispute.

I personally don't subscribe to the whole "WE'RE GONNA DIE WITHIN A THOUSAND YEARS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Theory, so I think the future (while it might not be the brightest) definitely has something good in store for us as a species.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

I simply hope that we can live in peace and stop fighting, like for once, just once, you know? Maybe I am seen as a blind optimist, but the sad thing is, I am very much aware of the human nature and our lust for conflict. I wonder if that will ever cease.

Still, if that can't happen, maybe Nuclear War, then we probably get wiped out, new species will take charge to replace the humans as the most intelligent species, and we just might have an Adventure Time spinoff, but IRL!

Hopefully we won't all die from overheating and extreme weather, provided Trump and big fossil fuel using companies pack up and GTFO.

Yugoslavia's back baby...

How the hell did this happen?
Well...we don't actually know. Just sort of happened one day.
Is it a reunited Yugoslavia in the 21st century? Is a rebel colony world in the far future? Is it a race of cyborg neo-life at war with any assimilating organisms they come across in the far far future? Who knows, who cares?
New Yugoslavia just is.

Probably what it usually tends to do - a reversal of current trends.
Capitalism, single-payer healthcare, pro-choice, LGBT rights, progressive personal taxation, low corporate tax, pro-business law, welfare for those in need.
Nazism, edgism, dogmatic statements, most of Abrahamic-derived morality (esp. as law), welfare for those not in need.

I'm ashamed that I thought of that possibility, even if I don't want everyone to just die like that.
