The 2024 prophecies of this cartoon series, which has been appearing before the audience for 34 seasons, attract the attention of many people. Here are some important events said to have been predicted by this series:
- Trump’s Re-Nomination
The arrest of former US President Donald Trump was predicted in an episode of The Simpsons. However, what is more interesting is that the series predicted in 2015 that Trump would run again in 2024.
- A New War
Another claim is that a US-centered war will break out in 2024. It is said that the first target of this war will be Russia.
- Climate Change
One of the Simpsons’ prophecies is about climate change. According to the series, the world will experience serious problems in 2024 and the climate crisis will become a big problem.
- Nutritional Changes
There is another prediction that foods will change and their nutritional value will decrease. It is said that due to the climate crisis, food will transform and people’s eating habits will be affected.
Simpsons’ 2023 Prophecies
The Simpsons’ 2023 prophecies were also quite remarkable:
- Sino-US War
According to images shared by a TikTok account, the Simpsons series predicted that there would be a war between China and the USA in 2023.
- A New Virus
Another prediction of The Simpsons is that a virus worse than the coronavirus will emerge. Homer, one of the characters of the series, was having a hard time due to this virus.
- Trump’s Death
It was said that US leader Donald Trump was supposed to die in 2022, but this did not happen. However, in an episode published in 1997, the 2018 World Cup was predicted correctly.
Other Prophecies About the Future
The Simpsons also have prophecies for the years 2026 and 2050. For example, in one episode the characters become the first humans to reach Mars. In real life, Elon Musk’s plans to send SpaceX to Mars parallel this prediction. Additionally, different scenarios such as zombie attacks are also handled by the series.
The Simpsons appear as an interesting phenomenon with the ability to predict historical events and the future. Although many of these predictions are just coincidence or for entertainment purposes, some of them bear close similarities to events occurring in the real world. Therefore, the prophecies of the Simpsons still remain a matter of curiosity.
