Remember this classic?
"THE YEAR IS 2030. Forget about the flying cars, robot maids, and moving sidewalks we were promised. They’re not happening. But that doesn’t mean the future is a total unknown.
According to a startling Pentagon video obtained by The Intercept, the future of global cities will be an amalgam of the settings of “Escape from New York” and “Robocop” — with dashes of the “Warriors” and “Divergent” thrown in. It will be a world of Robert Kaplan-esque urban hellscapes — brutal and anarchic supercities filled with gangs of youth-gone-wild, a restive underclass, criminal syndicates, and bands of malicious hackers.
At least that’s the scenario outlined in “Megacities: Urban Future, the Emerging Complexity,” a five-minute video that has been used at the Pentagon’s Joint Special Operations University. All that stands between the coming chaos and the good people of Lagos and Dhaka (or maybe even New York City) is the U.S. Army, according to the video, which The Intercept obtained via the Freedom of Information Act."

I know this is an automated comment, but not all 6th day votes are abuse. If I was systematically voting on multiple @venomnymous on the 6th day, that would be a completely different story.
Haha no kidding!
instead of a futuristic progress it will be a rebellion of cybernetic vagabonds
It's possible. They are pushing transhumanism hard these days.
Meh... Cities are growing, sure. But future predictions are pointless. There are forces greater than the once mentioned. There is no limitation to what a single consciousness can co me up with, and we have many of those.
It's more predictive programming used to indoctrinate the mind into a doomday fear based society. It was a another example of 2030 programming that I didn't think to include. So instead I blockchained it lol
Makes sense.
