When most people think of dystopia they think of grim and dark "Mad Max" kind of world.
However when I think of dystopia I see a "Wall-E" kind of world.
This is is the true plan of who ever controls society.
A world where spirituality doesn't exist anymore, where people stop becoming intimate and love becomes nothing more then sending an emoticon to each other. Where people stop thinking for themselves and are permanently high on shallow hapiness.
The worst part is that it's already happening.
It's not Orwell who predicted the future, but Aldous Huxley. (Or maybe a bit of both.)

Comfort is the killer of humanity.
The more robots we build, the more robotic like we become. Passive slaves without emotions who can never grow as human beings because they never overcome any danger, never improve themselves mentally.

>Comfort is the killer of humanity.
Yeah, they keep denying that comfort has completely deviated human evolution. We became the apex species because of struggle to survive. Now we don't need to survive, so evolution will happen according to comfort.
We are fucked ladies and gentlemen. Only shit, uneducated genes make the next generation. Not conspiracy. FACT.

We're already there, anon. Welcome to heaven.

>so evolution will happen according to comfort.
except there will always be a struggle to achieve that 'comfort'. people will always compare themselves to others and think they are not living 'as comfortable' as someone who is rich, which will in turn drive them to struggle and achieve great things.
this entertainment dystopia will never happen.

A drugged up population does not care what government does.

It's already started, OP.
Think about how many little things you let a UI do for you.
When's the last time you tried to correct your own spelling errors? Do you just F7 when you see the red squiggly lines, or do you let the machine correct your errors, hindering you from learning the correct way to use your own language?
When's the last time you used math beyond basic arithmetic?
