Yes you bring up good points!

I think we're both basically seeing the same kind of likely future, just from slightly different angles, or via slightly different extrapolated examples.

Yeah.

Yeah shit's lookin pretty bleak right now.

For me this was always the future presented in many American SF movies and shows. Couple of nice office building in the center, elites living the American dream and slums full of wage slaves everywhere else. Running Man, Bladerunner, Robocop, In Time, Corporate, Altered Carbon ... They all nailed it.

Basically same, I guess I was just a fool to think that people would interperet those as pointed warnings and criticisms, not fucking instruction manuals.
