Why are futurists always wrong?

same reason optimists/idealists are wrong, because they're not realists...

I predict that 98% of all future predictions will be wrong.

Lack of critical thinking

Because the only time anyone cares is when they make crazy or outlandish predictions. Nobody wants to hear their boring predictions.

@Bumbles well with some of the predictions of world destruction thank goodness they are lol

Nostalgia has a way of buggering up predictions...

Well, not always

😀
