The cause of death will be from blunt physical trauma and will be ruled as a homicide by law officials. The suspects in the case will be a group of 4 unknown suspects spotted on a CCTV camera, who appear to be a group of muscular males ranging from age 18-34, however they will never be found and the case will remain cold for the rest of the year.

Several political candidates worldwide will allude to 20/20 vision in their campaigns.

2020 started.
2020 will be a dark year.

Predictions?

Pain.

The quoted post has been deleted.

For good?

-Doge becomes a "symbol" for either extreme left or extreme right.
-Some meme will be resurrected and go through memetic mutation
-The Vaquita Marina will become extinct
-BotW 2 won't be released but a trailer will come out revealing it will come in 2021.
-Pikmin 4 still won't release
-A KYM user will perish.
-Capitalism will take a hit in one way or another.
-My vision will ironically become worse this year.
-Marecord will fucking die

Im just happy that in the next 3-4 years we will finally see some of these god awful trends in media start to fucking die but this time because of the rise of social media we will have full archives of millions of people we will get to cringe at.

For example this type of "Woke" character design

will be looked at in the same light as we do with 80s-90s "radical" characters

And other embarrassing "of its time" shit. Which happens every decade trends come and go but this time its all fully archived. So next time a JK rolling pops up and starts saying all this goofy shit we can tell they are just a trend chaser

Im going for predictions for the decade

Politics

Brexit won't affect the UK too much, other than a long list of negative effects. The right wing press will try to defend it with blatant lies.

Boris Johnson will continue austerity subtly, and for the first half of the decade, the richer get rich, the poor get poorer. The NHS will just struggle further.

Trump loses the election.

The Internet

4chan loses more and more relevancy on the internet, going from a site with big internet cultural power, to little more than a safe haven for vitriolic speech and alt-right ideology.

KYM gradually shrinks.

Social media starts to dominate even more.

Memes will continue to be bad, but may have a spike in quality.

Games/Film/Music

With the release of the next generation, consoles gain a bit more popularity, due to much more competitive hardware and graphics. Triple A is forced to compete with high quality indie games and innovate more.

Superhero films die down in popularity slightly, though remain a constant, another trend for big budget films comes in. More films try to have a universe, some might succeed.

TV gets almost entirely replaced by streaming services.

Hip-Hop becomes even more popular this decade, the trap era ends, a new one emerges possibly its "punk" era.

War with Iran apparently.

Gaming:
March is going to be filled to the brim with memes about there being too many games releasing in the same month. Cyberpunk 2077 will be considered game of the year next to Doom: Eternal, Resident Evil 3 Remake and the Final Fantasy 7 Remake.
E3 this year is going to be a mess due to people being overly skeptical of publishers such as EA and Bethesda.
Elder Scrolls 6 will be announced and a trailer will be shown but everyone will still not be happy since they may use the same game engine for the past decade.
EA will still try to play coy about the state of Anthem but will just say they’re planning something big for it.
We’ll get more information about the new Xbox and PlayStation Consoles.
Nintendo will still be Nintendo and just be doing their own thing. A new trailer for BOtW 2 will be revealed along with gameplay footage. A reveal for the next Pokémon Gen remaster will be Gen 4, all Gen 4 fans (myself included) will be hyped about it. Smash Bro’s Ultimate will reveal new fighters, some of which no one saw coming while others everyone was hoping for will or won’t be brought in. Papa Sakurai will try to go on a short vacation to destress for a bit. A remake similar to Shadows of Valentina of either Genealogy of the Holy War or Thracia 776 will be announced, much to all fans of the classic games. Information about the next God of War game will be revealed, possibly either a trailer or an early working alpha of it.
Warframe is certainly going to have a Make or Break year due to last year being rather lack luster and showing both content creator and community burn out.
Destiny 2 will keep chugging along and a new expansion will be revealed during the course of the year.

Anime:
Chapters for Attack on Titan will keep steadily coming out each month and the finale will either make or break the series.
Berserk will probably be on another year long hiatus or outright canceled before any major plot pieces are tied up.
All Mecha Anime of this year will be swept under the rug due to the steady tide of Isekai series.
A continuation of Bleach may be announced to end the series properly on the 1000 years war Arc.
Studio Trigger will announce a sequel to SSSS/////Gridman is currently in production.
Part 6 of Jojo will be announced and everyone will be hyped.
Isekai Quartet will get another season.
Berserk will end up getting the Vineland Saga treatment with a good anime adaptation after all these years.
