House Republicans want to gut the social safety net to pay for massive tax cuts for plutocrats. This transfer of wealth is a recipe for disaster. In general, the more income inequality there is, the greater the chance for severe social disruption.
Now, remember, all of this is happening in the context of the rise of AI. It could be that the powers that be will use AI Androids to control not just the United States but the entire world. That might be our dystopian future.
But the fact remains that the second half of the 2020s could be extremely disruptive. In a way that leaves the old order in rubble and a new age being founded.
The 2025 – 2035 timeframe could see not just WW3, but a Singularity happen and who knows what the world will look like on the other side. So, lulz? All I know is that Trump and Musk are ringing a bell that can’t be unrung and something new, a new era is going to rise one way or another.
