Just for those who have remarked that they live in Brazil. It’s the movie Brazil that this meme is referring to.

      Idk it doesn’t look like we’ll run out of food and the population bomb turned out to be a dud. Maybe the food chain will collapse in the ecocrisis, but Capital will find a way to produce food more energy-intensively to compensate.

      It’s a classic, but it reflects the anxieties of the time for sure.

        I’m not convinced that tech and humanity can create enough food sources to make up for losses that climate change is going to create. I think the damage is going to occur much more quickly than any replacement food chain could be established.

    I’m in the Man in the High Castle universe,

    but also feel like I’m a Belter in The Expanse

    but also, feels like the Faction in the Travelers took over and are fucking up shit, which explains the Mandella effect

    and personally, I feel like my family is fake and they are a bunch of people trying to mess with me (Truman Show), but also sprinkle a bit of Inception in there, since this feels so surreal

    Okay, my conclusion: Y’all are fake, its just my imagination. Nothing exists. “I think, therefore I am”, I’m the only one here.

    Wait. THIS IS THE BAD PLACE!

    The “politicians” are just demons trying to torture me. 😱

    I stared at this for a good couple of minutes trying to figure out why the new Captain America movie was in the diagram

    Please leave The Matrix out of this. Seriously, do not compare any of that to The Matrix. It is a trans-allegory. If anything, not enough people know that. So many fucking Red Pill douchebags who would renounce the franchise once they learned that.

    Ah yes, the four cornerstones of dystopian fiction: 1984, Brave New World, Idiocracy, and Hunger Games

    Terry Gilliam’s Brazil is a masterpiece. He denies it, but anyone that has seen the movie and really knew Brazil in the eighties knows that movie is absolutely about the country.

    very weak in the subgroupings. There could be 2 axises of dystopia. 1. Autocratic vs chaotic 2. some attempt to mean well vs dystopia by design.
