In the world of Choose Yr Future, stereotypes rule. Everything is decided based on your gender and your class. Everyone has to be married by thirty. Everyone has to reproduce. For those who don't fit, the choices are few: the hospital, banishment or a public death at a Gathering.

“Monsters exist, but they are too few in number to be truly dangerous. More dangerous are the common men, the functionaries ready to believe and to act without asking questions.”

Bruce Springsteen on Trump: “I couldn't care less what he thinks about me. He's the living personification of what the 25th Amendment and impeachment were for. If Congress had any guts, he'd be consigned to the trash heap of history."
RETWEET if you stand with @Springsteen!
