Personally, as is often noted, “Idiocracy” is probably tops for current events… but for the farther future, I’d go Blade Runner Universe, most likely… just for the sheer scale of total biosphere degradation and megacorp control. How about you?

This was obvious even to me as a child when I watched the movie in the 90s.
Crazy that we need a writer to say it.
If you didn’t see the movies at the same time you were aware of who Trump was, what he looked like, and what his business plan stood for, you don’t necessarily get the connection. If you’re younger, the connection may not happen because BTTF is “1980s” and Trump is right here, right now. Or, yet Alternatively, you may just think Trump, Biff, and every other person in that social class just looked like that in the 80s
Trump was all over the media at that time, he was basically the archetype of the rich American villain in every 80s and 90s movie. Some More News did like a 2 hour video about it.
He was literally in Home Alone 2.
