Just watched the finale of DS9. It features an orange-hued dictator with bad skin and weird hair at the top of a dictatorship staffed by religiously-devoted yes-men, hyper-aggressive murder troopers, and cynical opportunists, who even as the whole thing is falling apart around their ears, keep trying to find another patsy to take the blame for the ever-deteriorating situation.
So, spot-on depiction of the future, really.
