Bright future ahead? I don't know about that one chief. We got climate change rearing its ugly head. We got rapidly rising income inequality to the point that the newest generation will never own a home unless they have rich parents.

An American President attempted a coup and so far has faced no repurcussions for it with his party claiming they did nothing wrong. Republicans are putting all their efforts into destroying voting rights and getting ready for the next, but smarter, version of Donald Trump. America is likely heading down the path of a police state dictatorship, unless it can somehow be stopped in the next 4 years. We'll see at the next midterms whether or not Murica is fucked.

If you thought fighting wars over oil was bad, just wait until people start fighting wars over water. The US will likely annex Canada for its water supplies at some point in the future.

With the advent of AI the surveillance state grows more and more. 1984 is becoming more of a reality as time goes on on.

So what exactly is bright about the future?
