As you may already know, I think human beings have no future because we have arrived at the point where we cannot tell the difference between what is media and what is real.

What do you mean human beings have no future? That all people will die? I admit that's a possibility but I find it very unlikely barring a catastrophic worldwide disaster. If you mean that humanity will separate into the haves and the have-nots, and that people will be exploited and general nastiness will be going on; well, isn't that the way things have always been? Everybody steals from everybody. The corporations steal from the people, Royalty steals from the peasents, the invaders steal from the natives... and of course the rich steal from the poor, that's what makes them rich!
And what does the ability to tell the difference between what is real and what is not have to do with having a future? Humanity has been subject to the greatest lie of all time (religion) and it's still here. How is worshipping a fake god different from worshipping a fake "friend" on television? At least we are slowly weaning ourselves off of religion; putting such superstitious nonsense behind us is our best chance at having a real future.
