No, that's not what global hospice would look like.

I think the reason this was so utterly unengaging is that I wanted to be convinced that the plot made any sense at all.
Why are all these people fighting? Why the anger and desperation and violence? Once the entire future of humanity has been reduced to a few decades, there is no longer much of anything to care so passionately and desperately about, is there? Our population and our purpose are dwindling rapidly, daily. We have no children to protect, to provide for, to give us a reason to fight over resources.
No future. That's very sad. But I don't believe it makes immigrants from the third world more desperate than ever to claw through the fence. Far less so, I would think.
Global, foot-dragging apathy. Moping about and sobbing. That would be believable.
So I sat there and kept watching, waiting for something to make sense, to engage me, for something to be explained, for some kind of payoff.
Nothing.
A big, very silly, very boring game of capture the flag.
