Literally anything can happen in a year, we've learned, and this has been true throughout history. So it's entirely possible that in 2022, we really have walls and robo-guards patrolling the borders of the European Union, and wars going on in the Balkan countries. It's also very likely that that won't happen though.

[@g.razvan7482]

talking about 2022,kinda accurate so far

[@CaptPatrick01]

Back in the day, while we were all just trying to beat our best times in Underground, none of us knew that one of the game's best songs, would perfectly predict the political assfuckery that would a decade later, engulf the eastern hemisphere in a state of permanent hate and subversion, which revealed just how far separate the right and left could really be. The deepness of what transpired in a mere ten years would ensure none of us will ever listen to this song the same way again, but still, it will not cause us to mute it in the EA Trax menu. In fact, we'll probably play it more frequently.

[@Pedro_99]

Word!

[@paulakm626]

Shit, you are right! I've never payed attention to the lyrics. But when I read them now, this is fucking scary: It looks like every european country want to build a wall (Walls of fortress Europe), there are companies who are trying to build super-robots (robot guards patrolling the border), like Boston dynamic. And ok, at least we have no chips in our heads that control us, but there are governmental agencies who try to control us (total control). And who knows what will be in 2022
