What's something the world accepts today that future generations will see as completely wrong?

**Probably how normalized burnout is today. Feels like something future generations won’t accept so easily.**

The man on the street having to recycle everything under the Sun while big companies continue to pollute that atmosphere – but blame the wee man for not recycling enough. Those same companies not paying their fair share of tax.

The Israeli genocide will be a shameful stain on our history. When i tell my children I couldn't talk about it at work because I would lose my job, they; a) won't believe it and b) will be ashamed of me for being so cowardly as to give in to that pressure

Nah, nobody is going to think its genocide. It doesn't even meet the definition now. How is that going to change? You'd have to brainwash everyone to be liberals, but that is never going to happen.

UN predicts atheism to peak in 2050 and half by 2100. Atheists just don’t have any children

I don't think so. Global IQ seems to have peaked and it seems people with (1) high levels of religiosity, (2) lowest IQs are having the most children.

That being constantly “available” is normal. Right now it’s expected to reply instantly, stay online, and basically be reachable 24/7 for work, friends, everything. We’ve normalized burnout and call it productivity. I feel like future generations will look at this the same way we look at unhealthy work cultures from the past and wonder why no one questioned it more.

I have heard this from many people before, but this hasn't really been my experience, has there ever really been a repercussion for not being available immediately?

AsparagusForsaken588 Mar 30, 2026 +1
Honestly, same here… most of the time nothing actually happens. I used to feel like if I didn’t reply instantly, something would break, deal lost, issue escalates, people get annoyed. But in reality? 90% of things just sit there waiting anyway. The only “repercussion” I have noticed isn’t external, it’s internal. People *expect* you to be always available if you train them that way. Once you slow down a bit they adjust pretty quickly.

A few things future generations may look back on and think, “How did people think that was okay?”: Factory farming and the treatment of animals for c**** food. Designing social media to be addictive, especially for kids. Letting a handful of companies collect huge amounts of personal data. Destroying the environment for short-term profit, despite knowing the consequences. Working cultures where people are expected to sacrifice sleep, health, and family just to be seen as “successful.” Massive wealth inequality being treated as normal. People being judged by race, gender, sexuality, or where they were born—even in subtle ways.

Did you see that recent lawsuit about how Meta apparently got a kid addicted to social media? I can only hope that sets a precedent and can be the beginning of the end of social media being intentionally addictive to kids

Working insane hours being seen as success future generations are definitely going to call that out as burnout culture not ambition.

Abortion. It's just baby murder but because we don't see the body parts get sucked up by a vacuum and the little blot of a person get dissolved by medication then it's all cutesy and nice.

Stop Drugging nonchristians would be a good start. There is over a 1000 years of history of Christianity telling nonchristians their mentally sick for not believing in Christianity. They invented fake illnesses whos symptoms are just nonchristians ideas. To this day in America 🇺🇸 land of freedom you can basicly be drugged for nonchristians thought. Take this as base material Short History: How Christian Institutions Weaponized Mental Health Asylums 1. Medieval Europe – “Madness = Demon Possession” From roughly 500–1500 AD, mental illness was framed through a religious lens. The Church held a monopoly on explaining behavior. Strange thoughts, visions, or non-conformity were labeled possession, sin, or moral failure. Treatment included exorcism, confinement, fasting, and punishment, not care. Many people who didn’t fit Christian norms (heretics, pagans, “blasphemers,” dissidents) were lumped into the same category as “madmen.” This was the root of tying spiritual control to mental health. 2. 1600s–1800s – Christian Charity Hospitals Become Asylums A lot of early asylums were run by: Catholic orders Protestant charities Anglican church hospitals And these institutions often operated with the belief: “Correcting the soul will correct the mind.” What this meant in practice: Forced prayer Forced religious instruction Punishment for not adopting Christian behavior Locked wards, restraints, beatings Isolation as ‘moral reform’ People who didn’t conform to Christian norms — not just mentally ill — were frequently committed: Unmarried mothers Non-Christians Atheists “Difficult” wives Political dissidents Poor people deemed “morally defective” So yes: asylums were weaponized as moral prisons. 3. Victorian Era – “Moral Treatment = Christian Obedience” In the 1800s, Christian reformers pushed a system called moral treatment, which meant: Obedience Discipline Quiet behavior Religious instruction Removal of “immoral influences” Mental hospitals became behavior factories designed to force people into Christian social norms. If you didn’t comply? You stayed locked up. 4. 1900s – Psychiatry and Christianity Blend Into “Social Control” Even when psychiatry became a medical science, many institutions were still run by Christian boards or religious administrators. Common weaponizations: Committing people for religious non-compliance Labeling non-Christians as “delusional” Using hospitalization to “correct” sexual orientation Institutionalizing political or religious dissenters Forcing patients to attend chaplain services Well into the 1970s–80s, lots of state hospitals still had: Christian crosses above every bed Mandatory prayer sessions Religious coercion disguised as therapy 5. Modern Era – The Shadow Remains Today, the system is officially secular — but the historical architecture still affects: Who gets labeled mentally ill How “danger to self” is interpreted How society treats dissent, non-Christian beliefs, or alternative spiritual experiences The culture of some hospitals and shelters (many still Christian-run) The assumption that refusing Christian norms = pathology
