my predictions about the future: made in 10.2021: - With 95% probability there will be a huge disaster causing collapse of modern civilization in the next 20 years. The most likely scenarios are: - a powerful solar flare (CME) causing long Internet and electricity outage, worldwide panic and possibly things like a nuclear war out of confusion - collapse of the technological chain and economy which will shatter the highly interdependent nature of our civilization - third world war caused by fascists fearing migration, further fueled by dramatic climate change etc. - a deadly disease - a huge natural disaster such as volcano eruption or meteorite impact triggering collapse of economy, worldwide panic etc. - In the matter of years this will happen: - Extreme globalization, dissapearing of cultures, languages and religions, who will all become replaced by the American culture. - Europe will completely adopt the American model and culture, dropping all socialist efforts. In the Czech Republic and other countries healthcare and education will become privatized. - Extreme censorship will be established on the grounds of preventing "hate speech". AIs will monitor all speech, phone calls, mail, even talk at homes via microphones in electronic devices. - By inertia pseudo leftist group such as LGBT or feminists will switch the goal from social equality to social revenge. Straight white cis males will become an oppressed group, similarly to Jews during WWII. - Linux will be completely conqured by capitalists and made into unethical software aimed against people. In this it may likely replace Windows. - Wikipedia will be conquered by fascists, becoming highly censored, promoting one political view, commercialized etc. - Free software and free culture movements will practically die, they will be replaced by movements such as open source which itself will be nothing more than a brand, serving corporations and not the people. - With 100% probability capitalism will continue to grow and make life more and more miserable for 99.99% of people. This will come with: - Decline of morality to near zero, replacement of morality with law (there will no longer be a sense of right and wrong, only of legal and illegal). Empathy and altruism will be seen as stupidity and weakness. - Smothering of all socialist and altruistic ideologies. - In the matter of years intellectual property laws will get more and more strict and opposition will be defeated: - Free software will become illegal. - Free cultural works will become illegal. - End to end encryption will become illegal. - Perpetual copyright will be established despite it being unconstitutional in many countries. - More kinds of intellectual property rights will be established, e.g. rights to facts, rights to face appearance etc. - Computer capable of running independently and offline will be banned on the basis of "anti-terrorism". People will only own terminal devices to access corporate clouds, giving absolute technological power to corporations. - Complete prevail of rightism and eventually anarcho capitalism, the power of the states will diminish rapidly up to a complete de-facto rule of the strongest corporations. People will no longer be protected from untethical practices of corporations. This will lead to e.g.: - Working conditions equalling slavery. No more free time. - Health care only for the rich. - Crime protection only for the rich. - Disappearing of market competition, every field will become owned by a single monopoly corporation. - No welfare. - Extremely high prices put on by monopolies. - Life becoming extremely miserable for the poor who will be forced to breathe bad air, drink bad water and eat bad food. - Personal armies owned by corporations. - Extreme conflict everywhere, constant war-like mentality of fascist tribes tied to brands, corporations, nations etc. - Physical extermination of the weak: handicapped, homeless or just low productive people. - Slavery of people to pharmaceutical corporations who will deliberately and openly poison people and then offer them expensive life-long treatment. They may also develop viruses and then require collective payment for not releasing them. - Preventiong of progress, e.g. automation or electric cars. - Extreme advertisement equalling psychological torture. Unescapable commercials in the sky, in dreams, loud audio ads outside etc. - Complete loss of privacy justified by "security" and "anti-terrorism", every person will be required to have a spying device attached (e.g. as a chip under the skin or a "smart phone" that's mandatory to carry around). - New generation of politicians will appear: extremely powerful billionaires who no longer pretend they want good for the people. These will be e.g. CEOs of largest corporations who will be de facto controlling whole states and will no longer need to appeal to the people. They will only announce themselves becoming the dictators. - People will NOT rebel against the system, they will rather play along and try to achieve "success" withing this dystopia. The losers will get apathetic and just suffer their existence with the hope of quick death.
