Which prediction was supposed to happen already? (sopuli.xyz)

During covid times I heard many interesting conspiracy predictions such as the value is money will fall to zero, the whole society will collapse, the vaccine will kill 99% of the population etc. None of those things have happened yet, but can you add some other predicitons to the list?

Actually, long before covid hit, there were all sorts of predictions floating around. You know, things like the 2008 recession will cause the whole economy to collapse and then we’ll go straight to Mad Max style post-apocalyptic nightmare or 9/11 was supposed to start WW3. I can’t even remember all the predictions I’ve heard over the years, but I’m sure you can help me out. Oh, just remembered that someone said that paper and metal money will disappear completely by year xyz. At the time that date was like only a few years away, but now it’s more like 10 years ago or something. Still waiting for that one to come true…

Haven't the 5G rays made you gay yet??

[–] [email protected] 20 points 10 months ago

I just felt it start to kick in recently.

But wasn’t the vaccine supposed to contain the gay gene? If so, what happens if you get both? Could the different gay effects cancel each other out? What if you were already gay before all of this happened? I have so many questions.

I believe it's gay in case you get one of em, trans if you get two. If you were already gay and get both you now buy coffee and avacado toast every morning too. If you were a gay trans person and got both, the researchers blow their own minds out instead of trying to figure it out

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

Got it. 100% clear now. Makes perfect sense.

What if I became gay before 5g was invented??

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Unpossible

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

I only have a 4G capable phone, and I've been gay a long time... since long before 5G was a thing actually :-)
