You travel back to the past. Which news story or fact of life from the "future" seems like the most insane or unbelievable to your 2010 self?

[MCheetah]

VOTE H

H. A reality TV star becomes US president and because he wasn't part of the establishment elite, media companies spend his entire presidency attacking him and making up lies against him (despite there being enough actual material to criticize him with), culminating in rigging the 2020 election.

VOTE I

I. Western companies sell out and betray their own citizens to the Chinese Communist Party, a regime that regularly commutes genocide and murder of its own civilians and vows to destroy Western democracy through acts of war, all so said companies can try to earn Chinese money regardless, only to be swindled by them and have their IP's and technology stolen (big surprise!).

VOTE J

J. Mentally ill teenagers on Twitter, far-left political radicals, moronic transpeople, and others with no lives, start trying to get everyday civilians and celebrities alike, fired from their jobs and turned into social pariahs for "offending them on the internet," in hate campaigns referred to as "Cancel Culture," even if the comments made by the victims were innocuous, jokes, or inoffensive to anyone who isn't crazy.

VOTE K

K. Governments all around the world use a global pandemic, made by Chinese scientists in a lab in Wuhan, and funded by Western pharmaceutical power-players like Peter Daszak and Anthony Fauci, to seize control of freedoms, civil liberties, and rights, including forcing the population into taking a dangerous, unsafe vaccine that leaves people dependent on pharmaceuticals for the rest of their life.

Corporations, gaming companies, and Hollywood studios start attacking, harassing, and bullying their customers and fans as "sexists and bigots," while claiming to be morally righteous and good.

The mainstream media starts blatantly lying and attacking American civilians unpunished and turns into literal propaganda and 24/7 "fake news" that only the most idiotic of human life still believes as credible.

A career felon and criminal kills himself on a drug overdose and is turned into a political martyr "against racism," and the cop who arrested him gets sentenced to prison for "murder" while the criminal gets statues made in his honor.

America wastes trillions of dollars on the "War on Terror" and just leaves Afghanistan to be taken over by terrorists in just two weeks, while also abandoning American citizens and allies there.

A teenage boy defends himself by firearm, from three criminals trying to kill him and the mainstream media and Washington defends the criminals and spreads outright lies about the boy being a "white supremacist" and murderer.

Social media companies start to become so powerful, they can fully interfere in US presidential elections, as well as mass censor and suppress news, all to get a senile, idiotic pants-sh*tter elected into the White House to do corporate and Chinese bidding.

Something else.

[BCA6010]

10 years ago, I knew D & E (not the specifics but just the attempt to kill the right to self defense) were coming eventually, and F I more or less expected too, except I expected a young dumb puppet instead of an old senile one. In fact most of these wouldn't have surprised me that much except for George Floyd. Younger me wouldn't have believed so many to be so stupid and that such an event would've been limited to Minneapolis.

The race to the bottom with election tampering as well as crooked though not necessarily illegal dealings, the US bailing on its allies in a war it never cared about winning, media bias and propaganda, governments using a declared crisis to seize power they have no intention of surrendering, etc- all of those have been progressing for decades now.

[Nomoturtle]

The scale of overreaction to covid. Just telling people that we're going to shut down the economy, lock people indoors, arrest people that meet up, force people to use talismans... for a disease with around a 1% death rate, or 0.01% if you're not already sick with something else.

Spanish flu was literally 10 times worse, and they didn't do the authoritarian shit they're doing today.

And that's not even the only threat to liberty today, the progressives are as bad. They want to progress everything back to 20th century socialism.

[Nomoturtle]

But yeah, you've posted a nice contemporary summary of clown world here.

[Fuentes]

Probably Afghanistan but the rest makes sense i could predict happening. I saw a video along time ago on FB that also makes me think the George Floyd situation was a conspiracy to defund police and piss people off & George Floyd never really died that day.

[MCheetah]

The Defunding the Police thing is part of a bigger picture. Destroy society, then come in to "save it" with new regulations and attacks on freedom and liberty. They've been trying to do this for YEARS and 2020 was their shining moment. That's also why they got so scared sh*tless on January 6th. They were supposed to be protected from the chaos and thought the same criminals they sent out to destroy America, were now coming for them.

And people in other countries can't seem to figure out why the Second Amendment is so damn important for the US... If not for that, we'd be like Australia right now, where they're arresting people for not being vaccinated...

[Fuentes]

Yup and Austria and abuncha other weird countries it's sad what's going on in the world. Them trying to force this NWO so soon lol also yeah these weird politician ass hat crazy commie left think they can't be touched if the people were to ever revolt one day & the police and others all step down and side with the people they lose all their protection.

[WhiteBoyChill]

@Fuentes George Floyd never died? 😂

[Fuentes]

@WhiteBoyChill i said theirs a conspiracy out there that says he didn't and the whole thing was masons and crisis actors. In an attempt to defund the police which they did end up doing I said it made me think different after that. If you can read

[BCRanger10]

I'd probably have been most surprised by the pandemic. I already knew the media (both "news" and social) was biased and had heard rumors that Trump would run for president at some point. I'd also probably be surprised that it was Biden who embarrassed America by surrendering in Afghanistan and not Obama.

[exitseven]

I know, if I didn;t see it all with my own eyesI would never believe it. It is scary to think what will be next? Giving 450K to illegal aliens I guess. The stories just write themselves.

[420Rachel]

Honestly what happened in Afghanistan was a complete and utter tragedy. That whole mess really shook me to my core.

[Pillarofhell]

I disagree. The taliban sprung up to defend their country from the USSR. They didn't want to be communists and they didn't want to be Americanized either. That's life, not really tragic at all. It's inspiring that it's still possible for small countries to persevere in the face of trillions of dollars of war being waged.

[exitseven]

Yes, if you wrote an essay on how not to withdraw from a country it looks like that is the playbook they used.

[The_Maphio]

Actually, I was expecting that. What I wasn't expecting is taht they left their weaponry there, as an added bonus for the terrorists. Even though I'm also of the opinion that those materials might have been paid in full by the terrorists. With none of us being the wiser.

[Lliam]

The success of a globalist cabal in using a pandemic narrative to convince people that civil and human rights much be abandoned in order to protect human life.

[Likes2drive]

How about all the above, not sure if I could believe all of it myself but it’s all true and crazy, I think I would probably tell my past self about personal problems that are going to happen since I can’t stop that craziness that has been happening

[The_Maphio]

Really? Surprised that America tosses allies and protegees to the fire for personal interest?
Americans blinded by patriotism or non americans blinded by the not-anymore-existent American dream, I suppose.

[Pillarofhell]

Im most shocked by the epidemic that they're rightfully calling a pandemic. Because everyone panicked and overreacted, now we'll be screwed for the next decade and be like Bill Gates with his OCD.

[WhiteBoyChill]

Dear God. Society really has taken a turn for the worst in every conceivable way.

No wonder I am constantly stressed all the time about everything

[Daniela1982]

2010? Ae you behind the times or what?

[Aerissa_Jade]

I vote J

[JesseJayNeak]

Definitely C
