Damaged vending machines. "No change" messages on broken ATMs. Pepsi ads sponsoring diabetes research. These images may have little in common, but transmit a widely shared yet subtle sensation — they’re the unsettling reminders of a dark and strange twist in the reality we find ourselves in today. And unfortunately folks, it’s also a pretty bleak one.

Let me present to you the 'Boring Dystopia' subreddit, an online community dedicated to "chronicling how Advanced Capitalist Society is not only dystopic, but also incredibly boring." In case you've never heard of this term, it was coined by the late British academic and cultural theorist Mark Fisher. It refers to the feeling of unease in the form of mildly coercive signs that flourish in a late-stage capitalist society.

We at Bored Panda scoured the online group and handpicked some of the most vivid examples that illustrate there's something not quite right with this world. Continue scrolling and be sure to share your thoughts with us in the comment section below. And after you’re done reading this piece, take a look at our earlier compilations full of dystopian madness right here, here, and here.

To learn more about boring dystopia, we reached out to Macon Holt, Ph.D., a researcher at Copenhagen Business School and author of Pop Music and Hip Ennui: A Sonic Fiction of Capitalist Realism. He told Bored Panda this phrase is related to Mark Fisher’s critical term capitalist realism, "which he used to describe the pervasive belief that capitalism is the only viable form of the political, social and cultural organization following the end of the cold war."

It may be difficult to wrap your head around the term "boring dystopia" but once you get the hang of it, chances are, you’ll start seeing it everywhere. "[It] is more about the aesthetic experience of living in capitalist realism at a point in time when the system appears ever more unsustainable (ecologically, [politically], and in terms of increasing inequality and decreasing standards of living) but in which no other way to organize society has emerged," Holt explained.

It's sickening how screwed up the economy is. All we can do is hope it gets better in time, but unfortunately, that seems like wishful thinking. I'm so used to living in apartments (and now a trailer in a trailer park because rents for apartments are ridiculously high) that I have no idea what it's like to live in a house. Maybe one day I'll be lucky enough. But only maybe.

Although most of us grew up imagining a dystopian future full of terrifying end-times scenes, brutal police states, and decadent rulers, it is more likely to consist of mundane and unappealing scenarios. Holt mentioned exciting movies like Blade Runner or The Matrix from the '80s and '90s that offered depictions of going out with a bang, "But as the years in which those images came around, none of the dreams or nightmares came true," he said.

"Instead, space travel is becoming the hobby of billionaires while they ignore the ecological crises they could perhaps help with, AI and robots seem either to be surveilling us while they vacuum or when we click on a link, and the VR worlds of the metaverse are just ways to charge us more rent for spaces that we can't actually occupy."

Typically, the most evident samples of boring dystopia are senseless ads and ordinary images of broken machinery. When asked about other examples of this experience, Holt mentioned we can find it in bureaucracy, "like the terms of a rental contract that forbid tenants to use cooking oil on the stove, so a landlord can keep the deposit if a single drop is found on the extractor fan hood."

"NFTs are perhaps a good example of boring dystopia,” he continued. "If a sci-fi writer were to dream up a situation in which people paid the money they had earned doing actual work for a certificate of verification that they own a .jpeg of a bored ape, their editor would probably say the world the story depicted would be too depressing to publish."

ADVERTISEMENT

He also noted that outlets such as Bored Panda draw attention to the conditions of contemporary boring dystopia in its name and try to break up the monotony of the everyday. "In boring dystopia, people are often anxious about work, housing and the future of the planet, and there's very little to alleviate this. As Mark Fisher put it 'No one is bored, everything is boring.'"

So we take 6.6 billion divide by 42million and we get 157... So each of these 42 million get 157.15 dollars that's barely a single person food grocery bill for a month is you stretch. That would make it about 5 dollars a day for three meals ... Somebody please correct my maths, but surely even if it's 1570 dollars per person, it won't solve starvation in areas where all the food and clean water and cooking equipment is non existent. Those areas have bad infrastructure, unfriendly environment for crop produce....

If he uses all of his wealth, he must sell everything he has to have that money on his accounts, pay the tax on the amount he received from the sale, and then give it to 42 million people. While removing him from his companies, most investors will pull out investment, which causes companies to shut down, creating job loss and more poverty, more ginger. When those site close all other services they used from outside will lose a massive client, therefore they will cutback, make staff redundant or downright close down, more poverty. And he will also become an average worker who has talent and potential, but now he can't so he will also join the unemployed. Now after the people have eaten from this billionaires wealth, and money is gone. Crops still don't grow, there's still no infrastructure to help those people, it's dry, hot climate. This is a temporary fix and more should be done to allow local produce to excel than food package

Amazing fact: You can´t end starvation just by sending money or food at people. Maybe you can do it by educating them... "Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime". Hope it helps.

While I think saving people from Staving is obviously a good thing Elon offered the 6 Billion if they could show that it was really that easy. But they couldn’t and it would take much more money and not just only money but a change of infrastructure and a continued x amount of dollars for ever

So on other sites this subject has been quite the discussion. The jist is that throwing money at this dilemma has been tried, would not work and doesn't help anyone. Elon has already said he would do it in a second if someone would come up with a plan. But there isn't one. Your post is idle thought for the ignorant.

If only they could actually pull out 6.6B out of bank, but first no bank has that, and also no networth in a bank account anyway. It's all assets they would have to sell to have that kind of money.

Starvation isn't a money problem, it's a logistics and culture problem. Musk actually offered to pay a lot of money if someone could come up with a way to SOLVE hunger, not just give people food for a day or whatever. Not a Musk fan really, he's whatever, but he offered money to solve things if someone can actually come up with a way to do it.

Musk isn't "worth a whopping $221B". But his stock holding might be valued at that.

Boring dystopia tells us that while capitalism is often labeled as the most efficient economic system out there, it is not necessarily geared toward human flourishing. "Depending on who you ask, it can be argued that in some particular corners of the world at a certain point in history when there was a relatively strong welfare state and high tax regime, capitalism was part of what brought a good number of people out of poverty."

However, other people will point to the historical and contemporary violence, the destruction of the environment, and the inequality and exploitation required to make such "market dynamism" possible. According to Holt, capitalism has only ever been efficient at producing more capital. But "capital doesn't care who holds it. How it is made, what it is spent on or invested in and who gets to decide these things have always been political questions. And the answers to these questions have been, largely, deferred to the market for a long time, which has produced a world of increasing inequality, anti-democratic power structures, ecological ruin and boredom," he told us.

For some, pictures pointing out our dull dystopian reality could be a source of entertainment. For others, they may create a daunting sense of a lost future. Speaking of the latter one, Holt said that the material things that make people feel that way (skyrocketing housing prices, student-loan debts, insane medical bills — the list goes on) stem from actions at various levels of society. "It is just what happens when the interests of people with power align," he added. "Boring dystopia is the experience of our faith in the future having been betrayed. There is not a quick fix. Instead, to quote Donna Haraway, we have to "stay with the trouble" if we want to commit to a future we can flourish in."

"One piece of advice that is really easy for coming to terms with and starting to imagine a way out of boring dystopia would be to read Fisher's Capitalist Realism: Is there no Alternative? It is an incredibly accessible piece of critical theory and is only about 86 pages long. It is a great jumping-off point for finding out more. Read it with friends and talk about it after. It is a great way to feel less alone in a world that seems to be ever more isolating," Holt concluded.

There's an AI technique called universal perturbations which subtly changes pixel values which are entirely indistinguishable to humans but completely mess up classification algorithms. You can even train them to cause the algorithm to mistake you for something specific: like a panda! 🐼

I know someone who was in the US Army during the invasion of Iraq, and she said the military contractor they worked with was so absurdly over-funded that if a vehicle broke down they'd dump it in the desert, set it on fire, and buy a new one rather than fix it. They spent the whole operation throwing money around however they pleased and wasting it on other unnecessary crap, because they had "justify" the budget they'd been given.

Why there isn't just a tank in each printer, where you put standardized ink into ... like, you know, pens had that feature since 1700's ... you don't need to buy Ford gasoline, or GM gasoline, or Mercedes Gasoline in order for your car to run correctly, but just any gasoline, because it is a standardized stuff, with set features, that has to meet standards. Like ink has to anyway already ... just don't change out the tank with it all, but just sell in bottles and refill. Reuse bottles, of course, because that way, all material and energy used to make the bottle is done for like 50 times of use ... instead of a silly and stupid one. We need a law to make this mandatory, as capitalism itself doesn't care, and therefore needs boundaries that are not for sale or up to negotiation - they accept it or leave the game.

It took the school a whole ass global pandemic to realise that we needed soap in the toilets. And constantly told us the importance of washing our hands. Well of course we all wanted to wash our hands thoroughly, but because of you that privilege was taken away.

"US Official" and "Oil Oligarch"? Really phrasing that to make it seem sinister. It's Ivy Getty and she married a fashion photographer. The entire way this is phrased - "Not even hiding it any more" - is rhetorical bollocks. What was being hidden in the first place? That a rich family from California knows a California Congressperson?
