- Being Racist
- Being Sexist

Bigotry is still active, just different groups. Racism is definitely still active, just different groups (look up stats on violence against Asians or their chances of getting into the Ivy Leagues). Human nature is so strong, I admire and doubt your optimism.
Sexism being actively obsolete in 20 years is possible and would be a good start.
Yeah, I don't see any of those things changing. I've read too many history books and they're traits of our species, not minor blips.
Publicly releasing a crime suspect’s name before conviction. Can’t believe that’s legal, may as well call them guilty until proven innocent.
Just spitballing, but potentially:
How much sedentary time we spend in front of screens. We already know it is ruining our eyes and our sleep cycles.
I think it depends more on what you're doing on those screens. I regularly download books from my local library to read on my phone. People used to read paper books, newspapers, and magazines all the time. Same shit, different means of consumption.
Driving ICE cars.
Driving ~~ICE~~ cars.
Yes, I agree on this with you, like cars are extremely inefficient way of transportation, especially considering how overcrowded our cities are and the general trend of making bigger and bigger cars that take even more space on the streets, on the parkings, etc.
Nope.
It's insane to me how the fuckcars movement went from "we should have walkable cities and more public transport" to "ban all cars".
The stupidity of not realizing that farmers, plumbers, electricians, etc. need cars to keep modern society working is baffling to me. Not to mention that they fully expect people to go grocery shopping every single day, or it never crosses their mind because they have no idea what it takes to feed a large family.
Should have added a winky face. We can't ban cars, but definitely need to use cars less. Mostly a joke about how the current state of EVs is just green washing.
Hopefully, marriage.
Do you have blue hair by any chance?
Marriage is a stupid idea. Men and women have virtually nothing in common and make terrible partners. Men's lack of emotional sensitivity makes them incapable of providing a fulfilling relationship. Women don't have anything like the sex drive of men. At some point women turn off the sex tap, as is their perogative but society simultaneously frowns upon extra martial affairs. Cue brooding resentment. Scientists should hurry up and invent babies in a can or sex robots and solve the pressing problems of male-female relationships. Judeo-Christian values can eat my refuse.
Civilization is declining, the things that were considered rude when things were worse are going to make a comeback.
Civilization is declining
Says who? Jordan Peterson? humans have made more progress in the last 30 years than ever before
20 years ago was 2003... any idea what was socially acceptable then that isn't now?
Not much, really. 20 years isn't a lot of time.
Think 50 years, or 100 years.
Killing for pleasure.
You say that's already not acceptable? But I was talking about non-human animals and taste pleasure.
In 100 years?
Eating meat Natural gas stoves Oil/Natural gas furnaces
This sounds like a solid +6°C plan if it takes 100 years
It's all a devious plan by the canadians so they can have warmer beaches
Why does religion get another 1000 years, but meat is gone in 100? 😩
Also: what's that about magnets? Why would we outlaw/regulate high powered magnets?
