furiously masturbating to anime titties
Instead of virtual fighting plugged into the Matrix, we have people jacking off to anime girls wearing a retarded mask on their face.

Instead of a strongman riding around on a motorcycle with a hydrogen bomb and hacking people's brains using ancient Sumerian code, we have a fat manchild dictator with a couple of crappy nukes that can't take jokes and hacks a movie company to stop a film making fun of him.

Instead of all-knowing corporations trying to take over the world through deceit and blackmail, we have all-knowing corporations trying to get you to click on ads and pay $0.05 at a time for crappy games.

Man this world sucks.

How do we know, sincx?

Maybe all that crazy cyberpunk expionage stuff is happening in the background where normal people never hear about it.

We also have artificial intelligence, but instead of taking over the world it tells you which anime you might like on netflix.

it's actually pretty good

i imagine this generation is living in the "ideal" world, it will most likely only get worse from here. famine, water scarcity, man made killer pathogens, terrorist attacks spreading more and more into the developed world etc

right now we're making cool poo poo like this:

VR will be sunglass-sized in 5-10 years
solar panels are getting very cheap and viable for ordinary citizen use
AI and automation is getting really good, in 20 years self driving cars will probably be commonplace
vertical farming
cool new neuropharma drugs that enhance and protect your brain fuctions
blah blah, there is so much more

lots of cool poo poo. i love living now.

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
instead of dragons ruling the earth, skies, and mega-corps, we have a black man. :(

the really scary implication is that it is some way possible that future historians would have to reference a lovely comedy as the cause of WW3
