Metaphorically true, though our bubbles haven’t become material yet.
In Germany, the TV also produed some very apocalyptic predictions in the 1970s about life in the year 2000 where airquality is a major concern. However the protagonist is constantly smoking and nobody seems to see this as a health concern.
No it didn’t, there was no explicit mention of 2022.
Also, the illustration was about how the author envisioned a possible solution to growing traffic and parking pains in the cities: using these small single-person vehicles.
This is more a preview of what cars could have looked like, not the world
Aren’t those just transportation devices?
Why, though?
Social distancing solution. No virus spreading. Might still become true…..
They were mostly right about the mobility scooters.
