Maybe that’s because we are heading more towards a dystopian future.
-We are heading towards a climate crisis where ecosystems will collapse, war will be fought for water sources, massive influx of refugees will head towards the north, food will be scarce, energy prices skyrocket and only the richest among us will be able to preserve their lifestyle.
-Liberty will be more restricted, technology allows surveillance on a massive scale and AI prediction of crime will make you think twice before jaywalking.
-Neo capitalism and profit extraction at all cost leads to people being sucked dry. Everything from housing, education, healthcare, energy become unaffordable for most yet profitable for the few. Who cares if no one lives in shiny condos as long as market prices keep rising. Who cares if most can’t afford an operation as long as the one who does spend million. Who cares if education is for the rich that will preserve the oligarchy.
-war is more dangerous than ever for civilians, robots and drones are controlled by AI. War crimes are not even noted, they would have died of hunger or thirst anyway.
-Authoritarism and small dominions rules over the world, any warlords can buy a swarm of deadly robots as long as you ship your primary resources.
“Lukaku is a little n****” The journalist Luigi Furini said on the occasion of one of Telelombardia’s in-depth football broadcasts. Furini himself was immediately ejected from the broadcast after a few minutes, also for his resistance to apologizing. An expression with a racist background that the director of Telelombardia Fabio Ravezzani immediately condemned both live and on his twitter profile: “You don’t joke about words with a racist background (regardless of etymology). We do not accept mistakes or misunderstandings. And a belated apology is not enough. I’m sorry that a colleague like Furini made such a serious mistake. Immediate measures are inevitable,” director Fabio Ravezzani said on Twitter.

The author is British. Liberalism in its theoretical aspects autonomy, equality of opportunity, freedom of choice, protection of individual rights is a wonderful promise.
