In 1989’s Back to the Future II, Doc Emmett “Doc” Brown and Marty McFly travel to October 21, 2015 to change the future for Marty’s children. Before the events of the first film, Doc Brown told Marty he invented the time machine because “I’ve always dreamed of seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind.” Well, to use a phrase Leftists always deploy to “argue” for their position, “It’s the year 2015” now.

- Self-tying shoelaces and auto-fitting clothes
- Video calling
- Automated gas station

- A food rehydrator

But we do live in a vastly different society than Americans of the 1980s. Today, if “Hill Valley” was a real town in California, it would likely be another predominantly Hispanic disaster in what is already a Third World state. Rather than providing a setting for Americana, too many cities in California are simply extended slums, plagued by drought, poverty, cultural alienation, and political radicalism.
And it’s not just California. How would Doc Brown react to the recent statements by a Governor of a Middle American state like Minnesota that critics of the state’s colonization by foreigners were “unacceptable, un-Minnesotan, illegal and immoral”? ...
