    We’re legit too dumb to even build the Terminator or Matrix apocalypses IMO. They both rely on creating genuine artificial life.

    Devastatingly, we might even be too dumb to get to an Idiocracy future. It’s set in ~2500 and the earth is still pretty well habitable.

    I think short term it’s more Handsmaid’s Tale in the US, and globally heading for perhaps Elysium.

    Good times, good times.

      I want off this ride. I feel like a deer being chased by an endurance hunter and I’m about to collapse.
