Why do you think there's any correlation between Trump support and social conservatism, or any real social conservatism in the U.S outside of the niche communities mentioned itt? Trump has infamously doged anything related to social policy except tranny stuff for both of his terms. Plenty of fags support Trump (your pride flag in the photo ironically being an example given it's an old rainbow pride flag that's been reappropriated by "anti-woke" fags, and not picrel which is preferred by the establishment and the left).
>over the long term this is a big change from 50 years ago.
Gee I wonder what happened 50 years ago that could've cause this dramatic and sharp turn towards all this bullshit. Couldn't have possibly been the Boomers dominating everything disproportionately since the late 1960s.
>I think we're heading into a cyberpunk future and people will be walking around with blue hair and biomechanical modifications and all kinds of things.
I think it will be a lot worse than that and very different due to technological advancement slowing to a crawl outside of communications, birthrate collapse being followed by population collapse, and the global economy based on infinite population growth collapsing with it; which will make all the social and demographic conflicts on the horizon far, far worse.
