Global abject poverty will be eliminated within the remaining lifetime of the speakers (implying within the next several decades, roughly by the late 21st century), except in countries that are ruled by dictatorships, where abject poverty will persist.
People living in abject poverty will probably end in our lifetime. You know, the only places it won't end is in places with dictators.View on YouTube
Explanation
It is too early to evaluate this prediction.
The claim is about events unfolding over the remaining lifetimes of the speakers (likely several decades, roughly toward the late 21st century). As of late 2025:
- Extreme/abject poverty still clearly exists in many countries, both democratic and authoritarian, so the prediction has not yet had time to either be fulfilled or definitively fail.
- The timeline specified ("in our lifetime") extends well beyond 2025, so we cannot know yet whether global abject poverty will be eliminated everywhere except in dictatorships.
Because the prediction is explicitly long‑term and its deadline is far in the future, its truth value cannot yet be determined, so the appropriate classification is "inconclusive" rather than right, wrong, or ambiguous.
