35 Depressing Photos Of The US That Give Off Dystopian Vibes

From innovative technologies to advanced societies and unique fashion trends, so much could change. However, while many of us wonder what the future may hold, Americans may already be experiencing a different timeline than the rest of the world. The gallery below could give you a glimpse of some unsettling scenarios—so only venture forth if you dare!

I was very sick last month with myocarditis and had to be transported off site for cardiac MRI and had to be on oxygen and EKG. Although it was down the street and a short 3 minute ride in Boston. Unfortunately since I was having difficulty communicating due to shortness of breath and leaving my house with not even my ID or belongings. Clarified with them about my insurance and will hopefully be resolved. Will hear back in a few weeks. Stressful
