This feels like a joke GTA would have made 10-15 years ago.
Ecogecko does an incredible job of describing this phenomenon of suburban battle tanks in this video
the United States is in some ways becoming a medieval society, in which people live and work in the modern equivalent of castles—gated communities, apartment building with doormen and office building with guards—and try to shield themselves while traveling between them. They do this by riding in sport utility vehicles, which look armored, and by trying to appear as intimidating as possible to potential attackers.

:you-are-a-serf:
We’re in fuckin 1320 motherfucker. You are a serf. Bitch, you live in Alsace. You are a peasant. You need to give your fuckin’ lord the grain. Your fucking children, you’ve had 15 children. You’ve never taken a bath. You’ve literally never. washed. your. penis. You’ve never used toilet paper. Motherfucker, you have worms. You are dying. You’ve had 40 children, 3 of them are alive. 2 of them are child soldiers in the Duke’s army.
Bitch, the greatest thing you can hope for is to die at the old age of 36. You fucking can’t read. You don’t know what TV is. If you were transported into today, you would be the worst gamer of all time. You don’t know shit. You literally probably don’t even know what the direction ‘left’ is. I’m sure some Medieval guy is gonna get mad at me for this, bitch I’ve been to the Renaissance Fair. I’ve eaten a large turkey wing, which the Juggalos call ‘bitch beaters’, which I think is problematic but a funny thing to call them.
Motherfucker, you gotta recognize where you are, and then you gotta get passed that. You gotta be unemotional. You can’t sink into this hole. You live in the oubliette. Your job is to crawl up the ladder, motherfucker. You live in the HOLE. You’re in the HOLE. You are a RAT. And the rat, when he’s in the hole gets fucked. People only throw trash in the hole.
You need to eat a body. And you need to carry the plague. And you need to carry a plague around this whole world, that will change this whole fuckin world. And all your enemies will vomit black bile and will choke on blood and will grow boils and die. But only if you get together with your other RATS. And you come up with some kind of super plague, to fuckin end your enemies and…
End. This. Nightmare.
@aaaaaaadjsf isn’t South Africa like this quite a bit already? The worst income inequality in the world iirc and all the houses seem to have bars on the windows and sometimes even barbed wire.
Yes 100%.
The new place I moved into has exactly what you said, burglar bars on the windows (even though it’s a couple stories up) and barbed wire fencing. And it looks minimal compared to all the electric fencing and alarm systems around it on other properties and apartment buildings
Basically every rich suburb is a gated community now, though you’re still allowed to drive though, just get stopped at the gates for a few seconds. The poorer suburbs can’t really have that, so they have community watch/policing forums and stuff.
