Dystopic painted future???

Goodmorning,

Here's an excerpt from my scientific manuscript about antibiotic resistance :

"Some even mention that, unless preventive strategies coupled with newer drugs development are established soon, we are approaching a “pre-antibiotic era”. The reality of this dystopic painted future has yet to become evident."

Is dystopic correct in this context? Considering it is more regular used in describing (fictional) societies.

Thanks in advance,
Brother Doobie

  • Thanks in advance, Brother Doobie I would be more unhappy about your use of "painted" than "dystopic".
  • "Dystopic future" makes sense; I cannot work out what a "dystopic painted future" could be - well, I can, but it is not a phrase that works well.
