The Future
The Future
EP is a troll who is too stupid to realize he is a troll, and that is very possibly the WORST kind...

The way things are going at the moment? The world will be ruled by SJWs in the future, it already kind of is but will be much worse in the future. Guaranteed.

That makes me sad.

Well, this is... strange. An SJW complaining about SJWs. Oh well, maybe there's hope for us yet.

RE: The Future
In response to the OP:


So far, it seems obvious to me that a lot of the 'Big Brother' stuff written about in books like 1984, Fahrenheit 451, etc
....have long since already come to pass, and I see the chokehold tightening all the time, through technology.

Plus I am keenly alive to the changing climate and resulting conditions.

While it may be true that overall, the world is a "better place" than it ever has been, before
(less pandemic disease impact, lower crime, better eduation, etc)

I fear that the 'Point Of No Return', where the environment is concerned, was passed decades ago,
(or, possibly, even more than a century ago....when humanity first got onto the path of using fossil fuels);

...and that the environmental 'Day Of Reckoning' looms in the future:

a point where it will be unavoidably apparent that we must finally 'Pay The Piper' for our choices.

So?  I don't hold out much hope at all for the future.

I already feel depressed at how much our phones are tracked, our purchases, our information, the cookies on our computers, etc etc.
And at hackers, malware, identity theft, etc;

I am depressed at the disappearing Middle Class;

Even winning the lottery now would not make me "happy";
it would only make certain things easier for the time being
...and would probably present new problems, as well.

I frequently think, these days, that they only thing that would make me at all happy,
is a time machine;

If I could, I would enjoy the 80s and 90s again, out of my own lifetime,
and appreciate them far more than I did, at the time,
and see my parents younger, again;


and I would also pick-and-choose other times to visit;
not necessarily for their historical relevance, or in an effort to change human history
(because I think humanity would find ways to screw each other no matter what)
but just to take simple "snapshots" of life in those times for my own enjoyment;

(I'd visit Detroit, for example, some time between 1945 and 1955,
when it was booming, dress in 1940s clothing, and just go shopping, downtown).

Lol, only in his own pathetic mind, I suppose!  

Not arguing exactly.  He just likes to criticize.  He doesn't offer any solutions to any of the "issues" that he finds.  No thought-out logical alternatives.  He just wants to nit-pick, then he probably jerks off to fantasies of his own glowing superiority.

I think he thinks he is being a bully, except he sucks at it, lol. The only thing he accomplishes is annoying people.

I'm not an SJW.

You're a bad, bad troll.
