Do you have a source for this? I feel like peoples beliefs change all the time.
> Today LGBT rights and acceptance have won (and will keep winning)!
This is true. But in contrast racism and sexism is increasing, in the western world at least.
> In a world of immortals, only violent uprisings could challenge the status quo. The world would have no incentive to change.
I don't buy this at all. The world has even more incentive to change. You are not making the world better for anyone else in the future. You are doing it for YOURSELF. Because you will most likely still be around in 200 years.
> Would the world of today have still invented punk rock?
Maybe, Maybe not. Hard to say. But the world would have invented something new.
