What do you think the 2020s will be like?
David Wilson
Cooper Jackson
Russia collapse
China collapse
USA collapse
EU dominates the world
Kayden Allen
bob and bagin
Jonathan Lee
Wrong
Russia stagnates
United States rapidly deteriorates
EU+China will form a super pact and become an allied union
Jonathan Butler
fucking hope so
Luke Garcia
Everything will become even worse somehow.
Ayden Nguyen
Political dysfunction and rising separatist tensions cause a not-so-bloody civil war in the US, noted mostly for a shuffling of state boundaries to better reflect political divisions, and states refusing to enforce federal laws. No nukes.
Russia continues its encroachment into the EU, fully annexing Ukraine, Belarus and the Baltic states once NATO goes the way of the dodo. Its kleptocratic oligarchy starts to show cracks as Putin ages and sharks start to circle the ailing President.
China suffers a severe stock market crash as US stops paying interest on foreign debt (no full-scale default though) and its shaky real estate sector crumbles. Neo-colonialism in Africa and SEA keep the country afloat however, and continue apace.
India hits a period of stagnation as the US and Chinese manufacturing sectors hiccup and move into Africa.
Generally, life is not much better or much worse. By the end of the 2020s, neural links are starting to get really, really, good, as is AI - the first Turing-passing chatbots are already around by 2025, and video is getting there by 2030. Privacy continues to be eroded, but parallel hyper-private blockchain systems (think Monero on steroids) become ever more viable.

Europe is our little puppet, you'd never ally with China if we didn't want you to

Day of the Sparrow Absence soon, Zhang.

What the fuck was he thinking with that sparrow thing anyway?

These are the same people who think grinding up endangered animal parts into powder will make their wangs not be microscopic. Take that for what you will.

There's going to be a very big, very bloody war as the global ecosystem collapses from the bottom up. Human civilisation will continue for a while, but it will never again reach this level of size or complexity.

It will be illegal to be white or have a penis (that you were born with). The hyper-wealthy will continue to consolidate the world's wealth. Automation will put all blue collar people out of work, and most mid-level professionals. More proxy wars, regime changes, and lies from Western governments and corporate media. And they will stop even pretending we have any legal right to privacy.
Cooper Clark
hopefully im dead before i find out
Jackson Evans
this but unironically
Ethan Stewart
I wasn't memeing, unfortunately.

Gattaca will become real, basically. Biotech is going to be the nuclear science of the 21st century in terms of global disruption.
