What if we lived in a world with flying cars zipping through skies, no governments to deal with, and sunny days all year round? Sounds like a dream come true, doesn’t it?
Well, not quite. These Redditors have thought it through and argue that fantasies like these would actually be disastrous in practice. Scroll down to read their takes and decide if they’ve got a point!

Flying cars. So many people can't handle the X and Y axis, god help us all if these idiots were dealing with the Z axis as well.

The election of a fascist government. It may feel like a great idea if you consider yourself one of them, but one way or another, you're going to end up being the victim right alongside your enemies.
Good thing nobody's that stupid eh?

The country being run like a business. If you switch all our essential services into a for profit model it means that only the wealthy get mail, roads, healthcare, housing, food, water, emergency services, etc. It would be bad.

Mass deportations. I don’t think people really think through what the reality of that looks like.

War and forced draft. I don’t get it at all. Anyone who is pro forcing people to march to their deaths should be the first to get sent to the front lines.

Religious people believe they would prefer if everyone converted to their religion. But much of the reason people love their religion is the feeling of the being separate from others. As long as there's a group outside of your in-group, they are the lower "other". If everyone was uniformly Christian, or Jewish, or Muslim, or Scientologist, etc. nobody would feel chosen or righteous.

Civil War here in the US. I'm appalled at how many people I know around here think this would be a good thing, or that it will somehow "restore Christian values".
No. 99.999% of these chucklefucks would die by their own peers fighting over toilet paper.
Even if there was some semblance of social order, they have not a f*****g clue whar it is to do without.
Source: grew up in a country that had a lot of "without".

I am convinced the people who actually want a zombie apocalypse to happen just have fantasies of brutally and indiscriminately killing strangers without any moral consideration.

All those "booktok girlies" who say they'd want to be with a crazy, obsessive, possessive, or stalking guy, even going so far as to romanticizing actual criminals. Then once they end up in a relationship with a guy who's like this they realize how toxic and sick the guy is and freak out.

Secession is a popular comment among a very small minority of Texas residents. The people who most commonly talk about secession from the Union are the weak, poor, and uneducated...IE the first people who will starve to death in the even that Texas secedes from the Union.
