Ghost Time Theory - We Live in the Past
In the year 1752, specifically on the first of September, a young man, known in his village for his cleverness and cunning, and his love for betting, heard in the morning of this day from his workplace in the neighboring village some news from a traveling merchant. He was certain that no one in his village knew about it. This news was strange, surprising, even exceptional, and it would not happen again. A person with his cunning and shrewdness would not let it pass without taking advantage of it. He thought for a moment, then the idea struck him. He quickly ran through the village’s alleys, calling on the villagers to hurry and gather in the village square because he had brought them a bet. The challenge was impossible to win, but he wouldn’t lose it.

The Unwanted Future
The year is 2050. Some historians attempted to document the events that lead to the end of civilization and humanity, but it was a futile attempt. After President Trump was assassinated in 2027, the United States had a second civil war. Millions of people were killed in riots, shootings, and road rage accidents. The hospitals were depleted of resources and doctors, as Corona Virus and various other viruses killed millions more. Energy sources (electric, oil, nuclear) began to fail as there were not enough educated and skilled engineers and technicians to maintain the nuclear plants or oil companies. Pollution began to create new viruses as acid rain began to kill the trees and plants. The air was toxic. The ozone gaps became worse. Global warming was keeping the temperatures above 95 degrees all over the world, all the time. There was no winter season anymore, and Spring and Autumn were not much different from Summer. The people who were leftover survivors suffered many physical ailments because the food and water had changed. The strongest survivors were murderers who had weapons and camping supplies. They would kill anyone or anything in their way for food or shelter.
