Its roughly set 300 years in the future and all the problems humans have today are still relevant or even amplified.
Technology - Seems like a realistic portrayal compared to something like Star Trek even in the archer and kirk era.
Guns that use standard ammunition is quite common, don't see any lasers. Space spaced weapons seem to use rail guns that are probably not feasible to downsize for a human to use. And Missiles that burn fuel to move.
Still stuck in our solar system with no faster than light travel. Having to have injections to resist the high Gs of traveling in SOL at high speeds.
Using magnetic boots because they don't have some magic device that can create gravity.
Mars still not terraformed - actually terraforming a planet seems like a pipe dream even with 300 years in tech progression.
Human bodies being fucked from living in space or on a low G planet. No magic science to fix this.
Politically -Humans yearn for self determination, especially when they see others having freedom.
Mars breaking away pretty much echoes US declaration of independence.
Belters being treated like shit and bullied for superior economies and military forces - Humans have been doing this since the dawn of time and still continue to do so. The new form of racism which is alive and kicking.
Economy
Earth being overpopulated with no jobs is pretty much happening right now and more so as everything becomes even more automated. There's no perfect planet where everyone can chill and do nothing if they wanted.
I'm sure there's more.
