My best guess in 30 years will be the killing and eating animals. Not because everyone goes vegan, but because we will only eat lab grown meat, not meat plucked from an animal carcass.

Just like we see some people being cancelled now for being casually racist in the 90s(eg blackface at parties), I think we might see people be cancelled who make jokes in 2020 like "I like my hamburger rare so you can taste the soul of the cow" and stuff like that.

If it’s of high quality then maybe. But I think those people will look back on previous people as doing what was necessary to thrive.

Or more likely - lab grown meat will be inferior but natural animal meat will be highly regulated for some arbitrary moralistic reason so only the wealthy can partake.

Good luck…40 years ago we were told we were going to have jet packs and food would be yeast based with all nutrients needed for the day in a single convenient cube by now.

Instead we got social media. Pretty sure if I am around in 30 years, I won’t be eating lab grown meat or yeast cubes and there will still be no jet packs for us consumers to be flitting about on avoiding traffic.

I'll be a guinea pig here. If animals didn't want me to eat them, then they wouldn't be so damned tasty! I'll check back in 30 years to see if I've been cancelled for that.
