When you're getting mauled by a Molerat I'd like to hear you say that haha.

Anyone seen Idiocracy? That's exactly where we are headed.

Russia?! Where are you living in, 1985?
If you live in Europe you'd get the idea.
RUSSIA basicly owns the entire powergrid in northen Europe.

Like SiN corporations get to large and become their own states and police themselves, also said corporations fight for territory, resources, currency, everything else.

Mm. I don't think we're going to get dystopian anytime soon.

I'm more worried about a Demolition Man style future.

Not without a fight *american, sorry*
My buddy just did a project on this... Check these facts - If you armed EVERY able bodied american with a gun, you'd have like 90 million people. China - about 400million. You would HAVE to go nuclear or you would get your ass kicked.

Pretty messed up if you ask me...
don't arm the americans with regular guns, arm them with lazer rifles, that would be like 90 million laser rifle armed MC donalds addicts against 400 million rice chewers.
I personally would think that Europe is going to win, simply because Europe sounds more awesome than China or America, or Russia,

I do live in Europe, and I know that even at the times of the U.S.S.R. the whole Soviet threat was waaay overblown.

Today? Non existent.

A future where Fox News has taken over and only games like Barbie Horse Adventures are sold.

The internet would also be controlled and all flash games are banned unless they do not feature violence in any way.


This is one of the worst scenarios i can think off.

In the future paris hilton will rule over all of the world. (Yes I know I spelled it wrong)
In the future the law will require every rich person to be a scanque or an asshole, every middle class person to be depressed and lonely, and every low class person to be dead.
In the future everyone will be infected with all STD's known to man, as soon as posible after his birth.
In the future all of Earth's water supply will turn into semen.
In the future the only religion Scientistology will require every man on Earth to have performed homicide and rape before his death.

All of that would suck.

Russia will be the next top dog, followed by Europe and China. Russia's got the oil and gas, Europe's got the money and military and China's got the industry and manufacturing. Since all the eco-bastards were wrong and Antarctica is actually getting thicker, I don't think we'll be underwater any time soon. It all depends on how America chooses to go into decline. Will it fight it politically, economically or militarily?
I don't see Russia being the top dog again, true they have got oil but that is only useful as long as the rest of the world NEEDS oil.Once the rest of the world moves on from fossils fuels, hopefully some time this century, Russia will become even less powerful than it is now.
I see China becoming the top super power in the coming decades, its estimated that they will have the worlds most powerful economy by 2040. They already manufacture most of the worlds goods.
America will probably remain powerful, i do not see any general decline in America- I just see China overtaking America. With that, there could be your nuclear war- which would not be pleasant and probbaly result in some fallout 3 like dystopia. But before that the power order probably would be

1)China
1/2)-America
3)Europe
4)India
5)Russia
6)Japan

The book "I have no mouth, and I must scream" would be awful, especially if you are the last person in it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Have_No_Mouth,_and_I_Must_Scream

It is the 41st Millennium. For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the Master of mankind by the will of the gods, and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day, so that he may never truly die.

Yet Even In his deathless state, the Emperor continues his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross the daemon-infested miasma of the warp, the only route between distant stars, their way lit by the Astronomican, the psychic manifestation of the Emperor's will. Vast armies give battle in his name on uncounted worlds. Greatest amongst his soldiers are the Adeptus Astartes, the Space Marines, bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the Imperial Guard and countless planetary defence forces, the ever vigilant Inquisition and the tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from aliens, heretics, mutants - and worse.

To Be A man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.

Hmm, the EU might emerge as a superpower in the coming decades, thanks to the euro and such, but I'm not sure.

Even China is very dubious, there's no saying they ain't going to end up like Japan, and their Communist politics might backfire sometime soon.

My dystopia would probably include Senator McCarthy coming back from the dead to persecute communists again.

Just so no one gets confused, this would be bad as I am a communist.

A future where everything you do is recorded?
A future where the world is overpopulated?
A future where the earth and water are poisoned because of some nuclear war?

I hope I won't live to see the days where these scenarios come to be reality.


Interesting thread.
If the water's poisoned we don't have to worry about overpopulation...
Problem solved!!!
