Man, I'd been ignoring the dread and focussing on the cool parts of the future that are coming, but this thread mamaged to break through my shield and fill me with a decent amount of WW3 dread
Just think, this time the USA is going to wait until things are awful and then join on the side of the bad guys.
I honestly dont see the States keeping as one country if it falls to ChristoFacism, but the States breaking apart will give a whole lot of regimes fuel to start expanding
The US breaking apart would be pretty hard considering how mixed together the two sides are.
I'm pretty sure Christo Facists trying to bring about the Handwives Tale isnt going to go down without a whimper
The hilarious thing is if they ever actually tried it in a way that wasn't utterly cowardly it would absolutely fail with barely a whimper because these people are incredibly inept and pathetic by and large.
They would come crawling back to the 'North so to speak, like the pathetic lonely racists they are.
Yea but I mean physically, location wise
But what if California wants to chill with Hawaii?
Which parts of the future are cool? I'm actually not joking. I can't think of anything that's cool except maybe self driving vehicles. But I fear that day is still quite a ways, decades, off.
If you look past the fear mongering and how capitalists are using it, AI tech is already cool. Crispr and the fact that we are roughly at genetic modification now where we were with Computers in the 80's with a human trial for a gene modification therapy for a genetic disease already happening this year, VR and AR has some really nifty gaming uses already, and we're starting another manned mission to the moon. All of that is immediately cool, but boring you dont think of cool is how powerful our cellphones are, most of us now have a tiny black obelisk connected to NOTHING that allows us to talk to someone across the planet who doesnt speak the same language us with a delay of less than a few seconds, and still have them understand us. Our world has already changed SO MUCH in the last 30 years technology wise, and there isnt really anything hinting that that rate of advancement is going to slow to a significant degree, so while the political and environmental instability the world is currently facing is indeed scary, if we are in the position to survive the next 30 years, we're likely to see even more tech that would seem like magic even in todays eyes
edit: On top of all that, because of the internet, the rich have only been able to delay any of this cool tech getting into our hands, not fully stop it, so as much as they've been trying to lock down the internet, as long as they havent, we'll still eventually get access to these awesome new advancements
This Part!!!

We are super ahead of schedule :)
This election already has a few commonalities with '80.
Potential or real stagflation. A President that's seen as ineffective (despite some pretty okay policies). And a morally corrupt Republican.
On the other hand, Carter didn't help genocide or cover for it.
