If our current global political reality was presented as the dystopian future in something like Terminator, Bladerunner, or 12 Monkeys, it would have bombed because it was too unbelievable.
“Loved the world building, but a future where Donald Trump, a New York sleezeball, has overthrown the American government with the support of the Supreme Court, the Republican Party, and the religious right and his ICE gestapo soldiers are rounding up Americans, is just too bizarre of a choice. It killed my suspension of disbelief. 1.5 stars” - Pulitzer Prize judge, 1992
What further horrors await us, it’s barely April. Rounded to the nearest year, Trump still has 4 more years. 🤮
It could be taco Wednesdays.
Can we stop using this as a meme template. Fuck that guy
He’s actually extremely fitting for this exact meme
Other than the fact that it implies OP agrees with his worldview
Maybe if you’re a stupid person
I r o n I c
Truly explain to me how it implies that? Unless you are, as I said, stupid or otherwise wildly disingenuous you’re just pulling shit from your ass
“Why would posting a meme of a famous conservative pundit saying we live in the dumbest timeline imply the poster agrees with their views?!?”
Lol
Lmao even.
Okay so you’re actually retarded. I think enough context clues can be gathered just from where you’re fucking posting that the op does not agree with Crowder and is in fact making fun of his ideology. You moron.
Lol
Lmao even
Wait, who the fuck is this guy?
Steven Crowder or something
Wife-abusing chud Steven Crowder. You’ve gotta say his full name.
Is that in the same vein as rapist Brock Turner?
We live in a YAF dystopia that is way less cool than most of the storybook ones.
And while every kid’s story is their chance to veer away from the usual fate of becoming a corporate cog (laborer or soldier) in a billionaire vanity project, most will just end up stuck like Winston without his nook, or will get imprisoned or will just go homeless.
I normally suggest using the Calvin version of this meme to avoid promoting him in any way, but he is part of the discussion topic here.
Stupidest timeline so far.
Dressing up genocide and the suppression of free speech as “combating anti semitism” would have been laughably transparent.
And Israelis are Nazis, and Russia is the US’ closest ally.
This shitbag is a contributor to the timeline. Horrible that the fuckwit became a meme.
What was the origin of this meme?
it’s just the worst timeline
Trump still has 4 more years. 🤮
That’s a generous assumption.
[off topic?]
“Stand On Zanzibar” won the 1969 Hugo award for best science fiction novel of the year.
It’s set in the early 2000’s and got so many of the details right it’s uncanny. Some of the ideas that people in 1969 laughed at were mass homelessness; well paid folks needing room mates to make the rent; random school shootings, etc etc.

I don’t know…this mightve been a believable outcome by like 2002 or 2003 or so…W in power, USA PATRIOT act in effect, ICE replacing INS. A few years later and Sarah Palin has a legit shot at veep and kicks off the tea party movement.
Democrats had also just recently (as in, 2000) lost the presidency due to a SCOTUS decision and environmentalists who thought Gore wasn’t good enough (Nader’s vote count in FL was higher than Bush’s official final margin).
Like many liberal people in my country with Pooh-teen, no one believed it’s even possible to degrade that quickly, and many still believe it’s not really happening and can be undone in a couple of swift changes.
I think EU can take some lessons from two countries already declined in recent times.
Our present is the dystopian future the protagonist in a movie sees before they go back and fix it
Shoutout to the protagonist: Will you PLEASE go back and fix this?
Turns out time travel follows MCU rules and not Back to the Future rules. So we’ve sent a protagonist back to fix it, but it just created a new timeline branch that we don’t get to experience - we keep right on this path, forever and ever.
They just had to split that atom, huh?
I’m learning to subsistence farm, so I’m not arguing.
How much land is necessary per adult?
This image is the closest I’ve seen to an answer to that question. My aims aren’t so lofty. My goal this spring summer fall is to find supplemental food that can be expanded as needed depending on how things go. So I’m starting out with spinach, potatoes, and lentils if they are simple enough. In addition to that I’m trying to find a couple multi use herbs for some basic treatments and seasoning … Found This book list that may have a decent book on that.
you forgot he’s sucking Putin’s dick now
