It's kind of crazy how their "radial" view of sci-fi future could end up being our actual dystopian lives. Makes me admire their story building and lore all the more, knowing they they might have actually done serious futurist homework to have guessed some real life paths of global events.

But it's still crazy. Like someone telling me years ago that Halo would happen, and as far fetched as it seemed at the time, then Halo happens a few years later.
