  • Very cool idea!

    Tho I think people from 70s would very much still choose 2025 living over 70s. People really underestimate how much better we have now.

    Especially if you take a look at the whole world outside of US bubble. You think people in Asia and Africa yearn for 70s? You think people in Easrten Europe has any fondness of Soviet occupation? Future shock is shockingly great in their eyes.

    I think the more apt issue here is simply the fact that US empire is falling as this shock does not replicate everywhere so clearly it’s not universal. Most places benefited greatly from information flow and imo it’s a very clear net gain.
