On the plus side, no nuclear war.
On the negative side, no offworld colonies.

To be pedantic, Blade Runner could still be set in the future - I don't recall an exact date ever being mentioned, so we can't be sure it's in the past until 1 December.

Does the lack of Christmas decorations around Los Angeles mean that liberals will win the War on Christmas in the next couple weeks?
The simplest solution takes the shortest time to write down.

Edit it to say '22nd Century', and 2119.
Problem solved
I've been asked why I still follow a few of the people I know on Facebook with 'interesting political habits and view points'.
It's so when they comment on or approve of something, I know what pages to block/what not to vote for.
