I still say the [Waldo](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Waldo_Moment) timeline fits closer. Just a bunch of empty signifiers stuffed into a costume.

We are there now.

Nobody is working on solving death/aging.

You have to pay rent, go to work, companies have average Joe’s shilling for them.

The entire society is death marching toward - well - death! And nobody notices or cares in the slightest.

The vast majority of people think they will live for all of eternity “in heaven” and many others just don’t even think about it.

The shortness and pointlessness of their lives doesn’t even cross their minds - worse - they think the point is feelings!

And so it’s a war of who can have the best feelings for ~80 years and that’s it.

Doesn’t get any more idiotic than present day wealth inequality and total lack and void of real intellectual pursuits
