I cannot for the life of me understand why apocalyptic media is so entrenched in our movies and tv shows. The whole idea of “the world has fallen and now humanity relies on seven people in a bunker who have to fight each other for cans of beans and a biscuit” is not only stupid beyond reason, but it is against human nature!!
Humans are at their best in groups, we are social animals! We’ve managed to tame apex predators such as wolves and through genetic modification made them the dogs they are today! Next time you complain about GMOs let it be known your pet pug is a GMO! You wouldn’t want anyone to talk crap about lil Pugsley, why are you?!
The idea of humans being savage without some big government to keep them in line is libertarian nonsense! Leave it to the folks who are ashamed of being called republicans (when that’s what they are) to imagine a world of Bunker Bills bum fighting each other when they could work together.
If I had the ear of everyone in the entertainment business, I would say this: Stop imagining the apocalypse and the dystopia, start imagining the revolution and the rebuilding!!
Till next time!
