Recent development. I ended up running into someone who claims to be an interdimensional time traveler on Minds. Got into some back and forth with him on their insite messenger. I was asking him if he knew of a world similar to where I came from, giving him details about the USSR, nuclear war, democratically elected government in China as well as China being capitalistic, and perpetual cloudiness.
He stated he knew of several matching that description but also mentioned there were only 2 that he knows of that human life continued onward with, both of which have animal life like "Wing Walkers" and "this banshee thing that's best left ignored". I had him describe Rafes and he got them down to a T.
I invited him to come to the forum, don't think he's willing to come though saying "I have enough conspiracy nutjobs on my back asking the dumbest questions about a future that's not going to happen just let them bask in their ignorance I'm just here for the show". He refuses to elaborate on the meaning behind "a future that's not going to happen" and "I'm just here for the show".
So now I'm trying to wrap my head around his last statement.
I'm doubtful he's referring to the upcoming megadrought in SW United States devastating food crops and clean drinking water supplies because that happened in my universe's history right around this same time period, and I'm quite doubtful the historical weather conditions are the same in the same time period in both universes. Otherwise there'd already be plentiful news reports today about ongoing drought conditions in the SW USA with warnings that it's going to become far worse.
Any thoughts on what he could have meant?
