People in the future will possibly see us as being in a time of transition. We They would most likely see us in a transition politically, technologically, socially and maybe even ethically.
Think about how you see people that lived 20, 50, 100, 500, 1000 years ago.
Whatever way you see those people is going to be very similar to how future people will see us. For example, here's how I see people of the past (various times/cultures):
-They were behind us in many types of technology- transportation, utilities (there are some exceptions to this), scientifically, medically, art, communication, production (especially mass production, though there are some exceptions).
-The past people were required to participate physically more than we are in their day to day lives as well as in transportation, production, construction etc.
-While there were people in the past that were concerned about more than their village, town, state, country, continent, we are able to see a bigger picture than they did. So it would only be normal that future people would have a bigger picture that maybe we can't even imagine now (planet, solar system, galaxy etc).
-Also, people of the past were more narrow-minded and less aware of the multitude of the different types of people that live on this planet.
Future people may realize how ignorant it was for people in our era to even believe in some of the things that we do right now...Like "Flat Earthers," people already knew that the Earth was round at least 500 years ago.
We may even be thought of as the "doubting" era or "conspiracy" era. That's not to say that people didn't feel that way before now, but even with our age of technology and communication, people still will deny truths that have been proven true.
I also think that future people might take some issue with religion. Many religions are very similar, but for even thousands of years, we keep denying their similarities. I hope that future people will be less discriminatory and more accepting of other ways of thought.
We have no exact idea of what future people will be like. There is the possibility that in the future people will be like some of the stories and movies that exist now. We might become a more joined (socially, ethically etc) world, a more military world, or a world of less individuality. All of those changes will color how people look back at us.
