Neo-luddism is definitely going to take off, but it's going to swing hard into reactionary protectionism like 19th century France. It will be derailed by hippie shit and craft market kitsch unless it's very intentionally tied to eco-socialist degrowth. It's Solar Punk Chobani Advertisement or Eternal Etsy Dropshipping with 2000s Hipster Aesthetics: which way western man?

Slop posts go in c/slop. Don't post low-hanging fruit here.
Wouldn't that be Iraq 3?
4, if you count Desert Fox 
5 if u count the 2010s war against ISIS
most of these are much too optimistic to actually be realistic. for example north korea will never be seen as a normal country by westerners. for that to happen the west as we know it would cease to exist, and there's no reason to hope for that any time soon
But we can still hope :')
I like it except I feel like natural/climate disaster and AI does something stupid might as well be free spaces.
Having climate disaster as a second free space is cheating
Iraq 2
Uhhhhhh
Nothing ever happens high rollers club.
US is already in a soft recession, natural/climate disaster is a given, China is already making inroads in soft power as of 2025 (REDnote explosion in early 2025, "I'm in a very Chinese time of my life" is a dumb meme but demonstrates that people are becoming a lot less hostile to China), AI agent does something unexpected is very vague, idk what "another deepseek moment" means. Of the ones that aren't a given, I think a social media exodus is actually very likely. I've seen a lot of pushback on social media and a big push to touch grass. It might not be an organized thing, but rather people quietly logging off.
The most unlikely is AR glasses becoming good. They will always be for dorks
idk what "another deepseek moment" means
I think it means a moment where China reveals some AI/tech advancement that makes all the US tech companies completely shit themselves, like how DeepSeek crashed the US stock market
I've had something similar in my downloads for a while, dont remember where I picked it up though

I love it 
Do you by chance have a non-brainrot version too?
If by non-brainrot you mean a plain background I'll have a news bingo posted in the news mega in the next day or two
Yes that's what I meant, looking forward to it!
I too like losing bingo
my predictions
US Civil war
Maybe but not likely
sociallists get a few wins in midterms
possible, is a few is >= 2
Fusion energy breakthrough
Almost definite
Taiwan reunification war
maybe, imo it would be a proxy war where it's two factions in a civil war, backed by china and america
AR glasses become decent
100%, unless you mean the price
Socialist revolution in a 3rd world country
No shot. And if China provided any support, America would immediately declare war.
North Korea is seen as a normal country
Not even remotely possible
anti-AI protests
Yeah, probably. I think someone driving a truck into a datacenter is more likely
another deepseek moment
absolutely. Probably day 1.
self-improving AI
hahahahahaha no
iraq 2
iraq 2: iran
Major youtuber scandal
May as well be 'sky will be blue'
CEO [redacted]
yeah, probably. They seem prone to it lately.
Trump is no more
They will fuse him to a machine before they allow him to die
Japan and chile new lows
Certain
climate disaster
May as well be 'sky will be ~~blue~~' wait
peace in Ukraine
They'll run out of Ukrainians eventually
Massive Chinese soft power gains
hopium
US colonizes gaza
this is a fair 50/50 imo
social media exodus
Eh maybe
AI bubble pops

AI agent does something unexpected
I think I need this one defined
first trillionaire
sadly probable
neuro-sama gets mainstream attention
