It’s more like we’re headed towards Elysium, except the rich dickheads move underground because the whole in-orbit thing is waaaay too fucking hard.
happy lemmings day :)
as an aside, do we really need to call it a cake day? that’s a reddit thing, and I’m boycotting reddit
Didn’t the Star Trek timeline involve some sort of apocalypse on earth at some point?
Star Trek’s WWIII happened from 2026-2053, I believe. So we’re still on track.
Vulcans would have to be real. Their presence is what makes humanity realize there’s a better way to live.
In fact Cochrane himself states that he built warp drive just to get rich. His intention was to jumpstart capitalism in a post-war world that had no functioning economy.
If Vulcans landed on our Earth after WWIII, we would just kill them and create the Mirror Universe instead.
That would certainly track with the rest of this timeline.
…democracies? i haven’t watched a lot of star wars but isn’t the whole point that they are fighting a fascist empire
I’m not familiar with Star Wars, but I remember hearing something about the original movies being intended as commentary/allegory for the Vietnam war?
Yeah the Empire represents the USA.
The rebels represent the Vietcong.
Star Wars is literally US imperialism in space.
That fascist empire used to be a democracy until it was transformed into an empire by Palpatine
to be fair that was in the prequels, which sucked ass
The prequels warned you about 9/11 and 2025
