So I've been thinking and I've noticed that we basically live in a sci-fi dystopia already. I wanted to write a book, based off of our society in like 10 or 12 years. I was looking for some help for concepts. I got a few already but here's what I got so far: -Police force has almost no checks and balances. Checkpoints on almost every road, stop and frisk.
-Internet exists but extreme restriction on it. Looking up something bad can get you arrested on the spot (Dark net is even watched, creating a void net)
-The youth are openly violent and rowdy, using their own language, yet many youth are arrested for minor things like skipping school and staying out late
-Free speech censored heavily. Speaking bad about any minority, any group that was ever oppressed, or the government is a finable, or even arrestable offense.
-History heavily rewritten
-No longer a secret that the government spies on its people
-Heavily use drugs to feel better, despite them all being illegal and carrying sometimes the death penalty
-Heavily restricted travel, anyone caught at the boarder who isn’t a government official often killed or worse
-Forced military service
-Political opponents killed often and not even well covered up.
