#dystopic — Public Fediverse posts

If you want to read how it could feel to live in post-christo-fascist America in the 2030’s, Octavia Butler’s ”Parable of the Talents” hits hard!

It was published in 1998, and foresaw quite accurately to the current moment and past it, what could still be. Wars, percecution, racism, illiteracy, poverty, inequality, all there.

It’s brutal. But not without hope. And very educational, about the banality of evil. But also of hope.

#LightPollution has stolen majestic views of #stars and #constellations.

#CameraPollution has stolen the ability to feel at ease in public and private spaces.

@captainepoch it's sad but it's true.
I'm convinced that we must fight this #dystopic attack to people #freedom. #AndroidIsNotAFreeEcosystem, not anymore 🤬 @commonsguy @cnx

Wow, this truck-sized delivery robot sure has the #dystopic aesthetic to match the direction society is going! Only a matter of time before cops are shoving people into the slots on trucks like this!

This was one of the most #dystopic scenes in #BladeRunner2049. I don't have a ton of #SocialAnxiety, but I can't imagine walking down the street and being singled out by an 80 foot holographic person who points directly at you and announces to the entire neighborhood how lonely you look.

Movie Review: Rollerball

This 1973 dystopia movie foresees when corporations fully take over. No more governments to make rules. To placate the citizens, the corporations create rollerball teams. Rollerball is very violent:

'... Mutual Assured AI Malfunction ...' (#MAIM).
A less than optimistic vision about how to manage #AI in the not to distant future. More than a bit #dystopic and depressing.

Spotted in #Chelsea: a #CyberTruck... with a rental #billboard behind the trunk... How #dystopic can this get???

A GoFundMe for a 13-year-old girl who was shot in the head is easily amongst the top ten #dystopic things I've ever seen.

Testing the small version of DeepSeek locally. Yeah. Right.

I simply do not understand the psychology of tech dudes who look at #dystopic visions of killer #drone swarms and think "I should really invest my millions of startup gains in figuring out how to kill people more cheaply with robots."

I'd love to see an entire series of videos that start off as beauty tips and end in a vision of our #dystopic future.

E assim nos curvamos aos nossos soberanos Capivaras.

Vida longa aos Capivaras!

Eles percorreram cada rua, cada cidade, eliminando toda resistência.
