The idea of a dystopian society should be something exclusive to books and films. A dystopian world is usually something negative, it's a weird and twisted reality where things just aren't right. It would be hard to imagine living in one of these dystopian worlds, nearly impossible, in fact. However, with the way the world is now, it might not be so insane to call this planet a kind of dystopia, albeit a very boring one. When comparing modern days to just decades ago the world has changed a whole lot. Technology is ingrained into everything and advertising and consumerism have skyrocketed. Not to mention the rise of AI which is a whole new crazy development.

The world may not be the kind of dystopia that is featured in books, shows and films, but it is one of a kind, one that everyone has to live in. Reddit's /r/aboringdystopia is a subreddit that features photos of the world in all of its insanity. Things from real life and online life make up the strange place every person calls home. Here are just 25 interesting and kind of depressing things from the world turning it into a dystopia.
