Futuristic Dystopia sounds like a bad gig

What now?



I viewed another video earlier too.



I found this appalling because it could this could totally happen later on.
If this is what the future entails, then I am not amused.

I'm all for convenience, but there must be moderation in things.
We have to draw a line somewhere and not let convenience control our lives.
This is what I meant by not promoting laziness! (refer to Be my techie?)

As much as we love technology, we cannot let this happen to ourselves.

In the movie clip, there was this one human who couldn't even get back up after falling. He couldn't even help himself up. I thought that was really pathetic. To be able to experience the deterioration of their own skeletal structure through gluttony/slothfulness and be fine with it? Wow, am I in dismay.
There was also this instance where Wall-E was trying to get to Eve until this one human became an obstacle. The human that blocked Wall-E from getting to Eve, was "busy" talking with another person (on the screen). She didn't even realize what was going on right in front of her face. I thought that was pretty short-sighted.

I see how this future is possible. I see why it 'd be possible. I see how it'd be possible.
But I'm sure that this type of future would not viable to the human species as a whole.
If we really look at this short clip, we can see that the people have become too comfortable and lost the willpower to do anything for themselves. They weren't even contributing to society! You know why? Because they let technology take over

I feel that futuristic dystopia would be our downfall because we would've embraced the blissful ignorance of illusion without ever having an opportunity to realize the painful truth of reality.

That is all. Feel free to add.

  1. I totally agree with you! Being used to have everything done for yourself and not even being able to stand up after falling down is really just pathetic! What kind of life would that be anyways? To even take food to you by drinking food shakes or smoothies. That's just ridiculous. That's no life to me, to just flow in the air, talking non stop on the screen, rather than to a real life person and eat all day long till you explode.

  2. Definitely a downfall but I don't think that we would get to space flight and simultaneously loose the use of our limbs.
