30 Examples Of Modern Day Dystopia That Might Inspire You To Change Something (New Pics)

america is a failed state. they took democracy but forgot the part where they're supposed to look after each other.

This answer is epic.

Wow! That's awesome

Yeah, pumping money in to banks and corporations for what? jobs? pfffft they fired their people and a bonus was paid to .... drum roll ...

Brilliant. Boris is a twat.

The president America should have had. At least he gives a s**t.

There are advantages and disadvantages both to socialized healthcare and to simple free market healthcare (though between the two, socialized healthcare wins). The neat thing about the private insurance system is that it combines the flaws of both, which is great if you really hate healthcare.

I bet you that desperate mom will pulverize all 4 simultaneously.

Heck! The whole healthcare system in the US

This is exactly what is going on!

Yes, lenders should be FORCED to factor in the savings in rentals that would result when calculating affordability. It is ridiculous that the monies that will become available when rentals cease are not factored in to the calculation.

My son works 2 jobs, in a store and on a garbage truck. We live in a small town and STILL had to gift him a small house that we own just so he can live on his own. He couldn't do it otherwise.

Truth.

I once had a man from a firm tell me to come do an interview for a job he knew I was not qualified for and I had told him as much. I had to cycle about an hour to get there - no public transport, no car. He told me ' the cycle trip would do me good'. I cycled for an hour, got soaking wet and got told I was not qualified as soon as the interview started. I had to go as refusing could cost me my unemplyment benefit, which I couldn't afford. The power these people think they can wield over the unemployed. Psychopathic is the word I would use for these kind of people.

Everything is by design by the rich.

My dad is a longshoreman and I can confirm this

Not sure why white people say black people always play the race card. This is the ultimate race card but the racism is subliminal to whites and GLARING for black folks.

In the UK it is going to Tory party donors, MP's friends etc

When I was 10 years old I received a birthday present from an aunt of 1 share of McDonalds Corporation (~$12). To this day, the transaction fee for selling that 1 share would cost more than the share is worth, so I just enjoy my quarterly dividend check for $1.19.

Not being available 24hrs a day 7 days a week.

I hope you steal from work everyday.

Everyone should agree that this should be illegal. Nothing about this system works.

It's time to end this horrible trend of making life harder for those whose life is hard enough already. Those are human beings people!

That's what astounds me about Americans who don't / won't / haven't travelled to see how good life is in other parts of the world. They cling to ideas that are not true like children told fairytales they believe as real. It's bizarre. And sad for them.

Really people! Do you actually need a new iPhone every 5 minutes? Apple and their upper echelon just get richer and richer because you fall for it. Learn to spend money on needs not wants. Do it now. Because if you keep doing this you may need to learn to do that the hard way. Your not the one accumulating all the money here. They are.

With all those fires burning down the trees along with over-lumbering and deforestation, I think this is the the beginning of the hottest summers we will experience :(

Barnet council in the UK outsourced most of their functions/services to a private company. It has been nothing but a disaster. That's what happens when profit is the main driver.

I work more hours, am calmer and significantly more productive since work from home started (March 2020) and has been going on since and is an obvious improvement. Yet the company now (at start of Delta variant, looking fwd to Lambda variant) makes me go to the office at least two days, where I will work 8 hrs (and not a minute more, trust me), will be worried about people coughing on me, will spend two hours in traffic....I can go on

I'd send them a whole bottle and ask for $1500 off the bill.

That is out of date, most Walmart have removed firearms

I told my alumni telemarketing that unless they contribute to my student loans, they can fūck off. Never called me back

imagine charging for electrons stolen you'd have to take the halogens to supreme court

Jesus.

There's a lot of problems that the price of an aircraft carrier would solve. But those Americans just love shooting and blowing things up instead.

If you're bit by a rattlesnake, you'll survive because that antivenom is still being made - and you'll be paying for it for the rest of your life.

In other news, water is wet.

Kinda seems like we should get our machetes and have a revolution doesn't it?

Villains in movies: "Oh, I'm being punished for my crimes!!!" Villains in real life: "Now let's see what subsidies the government is spreading around today for me."

Won't be surprised if they already haven't voted for a law that covers the renovation costs of their first, second and third house in case if a natural disaster.

If I was a US citizen I would have more trust in the mafia

Fines that are not based on wealth or income are just a nominal fee to rich people.

He can start, lead by example

Marketing 101.

People are missing the point on both sides there. As with so many things, the bad guy isn't who you think it is. I was a small landlord at the start of the pandemic. Had 4 rent houses. They were in decent condition because I had them built new. The rent was more than I really felt comfortable charging. But I really couldn't charge less as the cost of insurance on the property immediately ate more than 50%. I even paid all utilities, and that was merely a fraction of the amount to have the property insured - which was required by the financing I took to build the houses. I eventually had to sell the rent houses (I did, at a loss) or let the bank seize them. If you find an industry people are complaining about - healthcare, rental property, cattle farming - I will just about guarantee the place all the money is actually going is an insurance company or bank.

I would just love to see every single type of art disappear. Then, just then, will people realize how crucial it is. From design to performing arts, arts is everywhere. What would people have done in quarantine with no Netflix, no TV, puzzles, etc??

The cursed generation. Sometimes (occasionally) life isn't s**t. You probably don't believe me but now and then good stuff happens.

Oh yes, mine is coming in September, and they don't even say how much. And they are making suuuch a fuss about The Raise! >:(

How is this possible. The companies prefer waste to giving it to the needy .

What the AF? Is Fred Meyer afraid that people so desperate to eat that they are willing to salvage food from a dumpster will sue them if anything happens? What other possible explanation could there be for (up to) 15 police arriving to 'protect' rotting food that could help hundreds of starving families? F that. Boycott.

In Spain one supermarket used to do that. They would throw the food in the container but open the packages first so people couldn't salvage it. Monsters. It should be obligatory to have a fridge for free expired food.

They shouldn't be guarding it they should be giving it to them like people got stuff out the dumpster ( see the dumpster post)

Capitalism: Whoever has the money, makes the rules. It doesn't matter who dies or suffers.

This is a very American problem. The problem here is that garbage still belongs to the company, which means that they could actually be sued if anyone got ill from what they threw away.

Seriously? What is wrong with people?

Would you rather eat it and die ?

Just be in large groups and fight against these useless cops

This may be more justified than it looks - meat for example cannot get sold once it was exposed to higher temperature not for no reason, especially in the US, where certain parasites aren't searched for like in the EU. So, while it looks totally unhinged, it may be for a reason that at least isn't completely irrational ... but then, again, not all that food will be meat I guess ... and it may be just as pointless as it looks.

Amazon can go F*CK itself. Nothing but forced slave labour
