I guess you skipped the first half of the movie. You might be exactly who the movie is making fun of.

Wow, the point and proof you asked for sailed clear over your head. Guns aren't allowed in schools yet somehow they've still turned into unarmed victim zones, leading to the statistic you cited. Murder is illegal yet kids are getting killed with guns, in schools where neither are allowed.
Every school shooting?
Ha. Remember when Idiocracy was just a funny movie making fun of us and not prophecy.
I'm sure all those old European royal families are going, "Yeah, yeah, it's those tiny middle of nowhere American towns where the inbreeding happens. Not here. Never here."
I'm glad I'm a lucid dreamer.
OH NO, FREDDY KRUGER CHASING ME!
Wait, that means I'm dreaming.
This is my mind. Now I make the rules. Oh no, Freddy, you're in my world.
RDR (any of them) is not cosplay, it's an interactive movie, a high tech pick your adventure book. Cosplay involves going outside. You can't play paintball in your underwear on your couch. Well, you could but your living room is going to suffer.
It's like Google Street view of Vegas versus actually visiting the casinos. It's not the same.
But it's not Westworld is a theme park where you cosplay; like Disneyland but you get to be a character. Video games are more like interactive movies. It'd be like saying paintball is the same as Call of Duty. One is much more interactive. It's too much of a stretch, it's too broad.
Is this generational? I'm a millennial, 38 years old. I don't know about most of these short cuts. I'm a mechanic, I use computers at work but mostly proprietary programs. I don't use my computer at home except for bill paying or something else the necessitates using it.
Sounds perfect for watching later tonight.
*As described above, It's nothing great, but not the worst movie I've ever seen either. Worth your time if you like those old spaghetti westerns.
The future is that one where corporate oligarchy took over everything, dumbed down the population to the point of dumbing down their own posterity, and end up dooming all of society for immediate profit. None of the high paying or necessary jobs are getting done. It's not the future we've reached, its the one we're en route to, the time line we're on, right down to the crocs.
Your optimistic turn out relies on some dope from now getting cryogenicly frozen, then forgotten about, who accidentally wakes up a few hundred years in the future.
You've seen the movie put didn't pay attention to it. Your death hill is a dumb one.
