Europe 2030: if things don’t change, we could be facing the era of the surveillance state

In this vision, Europe 2030 looks like a place that can only be described with one word: dystopia.
And yet – almost every development described in the text is based on political and technological trends already underway.

So this is not a fantasy.
This is a warning.

🔥 AI took jobs – ”structural change” took human dignity

In 2030, European unemployment will be 18.7%.
The 25-45 age group – the very generation that has kept the wheels of the economy turning – will be hardest hit.

The EU Commission calls the disaster a ”structural change”.
In reality, it is the fact that billions have been invested in AI and automation without any plan for what will happen to the people whose jobs will disappear.

The new ”digital job centres” resemble control institutions more than social security, in name alone:
– do prescribed tasks → get a basic income
– fail → lose rights

This is the technocratic version of the stick horse.

🧠 EuroVerse – digital opium for the masses

As the real world crumbles – unemployment, energy shortages, growing surveillance – European governments are developing a solution:
EuroVerse, a governmental metaverse.

A complete, controlled, gamified escape from everyday life, but with a flip side:

• access only to those with a ”good conduct score”
• VR time as a reward for meeting energy quotas
• children are brought up in virtual classrooms where the EU narrative is taught as ”real truth”

This is not entertainment.
This is a behavioural control machine that uses dopamine as a control tool.

⚡ Energy monitoring – smart meter turned into an electric handle

Smart meters were ”energy efficiency” in the 2020s.
In 2030, they will be a monitoring device.

• Every household monitored by the minute
• Quota exceeded? → automatic power cut
• You criticise the administration? → ”technical glitch” in connections

Energy is no longer a right.
It is a licence that can be lost.

🏥 Health hygiene → Health dictatorship

European health monitoring, introduced in 2027, changed rapidly:

• Implanted sensors report physical and psychological values
• Deviations from the ”social norm” → mandatory treatment
• Refusal of treatment → loss of insurance rights
• Psychological criticality is classified as ”resistance to the system”

This is a perfect example of how biotech + algorithm creates a new class of surveillance:
obey or lose the right to exist within the system.

🌍 Open borders → collapse of state identity

The radical change in EU border policy adopted in 2026 will lead to:

• massive migration
• the minority status of the indigenous population in several large cities
• a ”transcultural single culture” that replaces national identities

This development should not even be discussed – because the very use of the term ”population compensation” has been criminalised as ”extremism”.

📵 Censorship 2.0 – total media harmonisation

In 2028:

• the last independent media were forced to close down
• replaced by the EU ”information service”
• critical journalists were either silenced, imprisoned or fled

The role of the media is no longer to inform.
Its role is to normalise the actions of the system.

🏛️ 150 000 political prisoners – the opposition is a crime

When controls were tightened:

• more than 150 000 citizens imprisoned for ”disturbing solidarity”
• the reason for detention may be a social media post
• new prison complexes are being built on the outskirts of capital cities

Europe’s human rights heritage has been erased.

📚 Education reform 2027 – children in the ownership of the system

Schools will:

• ideological institutions
• teaching ”European awareness” instead of critical thinking
• linking energy and health behaviour to citizen’s points
• parents who object may lose custody

The future generation will be raised according to the narrative of the administration – not truth, not history, not logic.

💶 Cash withdrawal 2029 – the final lock

When the cash is removed, what remains is:

• fully traceable payment transactions
• programmable money
• purchase restrictions
• social scoring → better loans if you behave ”correctly”
• for critics: blocking of payments, ”system errors”, blocking of basic purchases

This is not Orwellian.
This is banking technology + politics.

🔥 Underground resistance – the last flame

Despite full control, there will be:

• secret networks
• alternative distribution
• the ”European freedom movement”, which seeks to preserve knowledge for future generations

One activist puts it aptly:
”We are the last generation that still knows what freedom means.”

🎬 Conclusion: 2030 is not a scenario – it is a warning sign

The article describes a Europe that has changed:

• as a control mechanism
• identity fractured
• economically managed
• psychologically manipulated
• digitally enslaved

And the scariest thing:
many of these developments will already be underway in 2025.

That’s why this is not just a dystopia.
This is the future, if the direction is not changed.
