  • The more news I read the more I think of judge dredd as the future for the USA.

    Corporate Takeover of Government

    Elon Musk and DOGE and the budget cuts, like a megacorp executive running essential public services for profit.

    Trump & Musk pushing privatization, bust like how corporations in Judge Dredd control everything from housing to law enforcement.

    Weakening Social Safety Nets

    Cutting Social Security, making healthcare deniable based on religious beliefs (Arkansas bill), reducing government services looks like pushing society toward a survival-of-the-fittest model to me.

    The rich live in luxury, while everyone else is left to fend for themselves like the division in Judge Dredd’s Mega-City One.

    Authoritarianism & the Rule of the Few

    Trump’s policies, Vance’s ideology, Musk’s influence, the US is shifting toward rule by billionaires and strongmen, bypassing democratic institutions.

    The Rise of Private Justice & Armed Control

    Musk’s obsession with tech-based policing & surveillance (like Neuralink, AI, and robot enforcement) eerily mirrors corporate-controlled law enforcement in dystopian fiction.
