Instead of “How are You?” try these Dystopia-Friendly alternatives:

  • I see you’re awake, my condolences

  • I hope you have some strong coffee

  • I can’t wait for the aliens to invade the earth

  • You need to find a seamstress for your raiding party

  • Did any of your crops survive the heatwave?

  • I sure hope this reality is just a simulation

    These are written by someone who thinks it’s normal that people in games just blurt out something like “patrolling the Mojave makes you wish for a nuclear winter” as you approach.

      I’m assuming it’s that your raiding party are the people you do direct action with, and having a seamstress among you is super useful and important because they can not only create and mend clothes and other useful items like blankets and tents and banners, but in a real bind they could potentially sew up a wound, too!

          I’m very much out of touch with most popular shows and games and such lol

          Having said that, I looked it up, and if you’re asking seriously and not just making a reference that’s gone over my head, I think the answer could be any really, depending on the person and what other skills they have.

        Right, thanks. I thought it was making reference to some media piece or something else

    IMO recent US events are fairly solid evidence that we’re in a simulation, and somebody is fucking with us.

    This reality is a simulation. But it’s not electronic like the Matrix, it’s social. You’ve been socially conditioned to see what the owning class want you to see.
