Oh man. Soylent Green is pretty fucking close to what we're living right now.

  • Climate change
  • Housing being out of reach for working people who are now living in staircases and in the streets
  • Women losing their rights and becoming "furniture"

    I mean most of all human civilization has had those very things though. The climate change part is a bit more recent, but housing has and always will be problematic, and women along with anyone that looks 'different' are typically the first people subjugated in human civilizations. When you think about it at a high level, humans kind of suck overall.

    at least two years ago they were trying to grow meat (for consumption) and body parts (for implantation, so i guess consumption too) in vats. ain't heard much about that, but there has been bigger stuff to worry about.
