So, as the title goes: with a POD of no later than than 2002, make pop culture become as dark, gritty, edgy and stupidly disturbing as possible. I'm talking video games like Postal 2 becoming as common as Call Of Duty, emo, goth, punk and thug subcultures becoming the most common cliques amongst youth, music like NIN, Death Grips, and Euronymous becoming more widely listened to than pop, R rated movies being hot properties, TV comedy as bad or worse than Family Guy dominating airwaves, lax or even defunct censorship authorities, and constant popular demand for dumb edgy remakes of favorite childhood characters in movies, TV and video games, etc. My guess is this is nigh-impossible, for the simple fact that the public at large is generally resistant to such gratuitous edginess being crammed down their throats. If you can find a way to do even one of these things, you get an Edgelord Eternus award and probably a bunch of weird looks from respectable people.
