There are definitely some anti-neoliberal themes presenting themselves in media these days, if not explicitly pro-socialist. I watched the Amazon Prime series 'Upload' a couple months ago and it's basically an eight-hour condemnation of every shitty neoliberal consequence. Maybe it's just that neoliberalism is failing so blatantly that it's impossible not to notice and comment on it, but still a good sign in terms of highlighting the problems that socialists have seen coming forever.
Im gonna write a series called "Clear Cache" about me taking a shit.
Would you recommend it?
Its alright, thinks it's funnier than it is. Feels like PMC snark on society but doesn't really have any path to a solution. Worth an episode or two to see if you're into it.
It's a deeply sardonic, somewhat high-concept take on a neoliberal dystopian near-future. Hits the nail on the head a few times. If you already have Amazon Prime or can easily pirate stuff then I'd say it's worth giving a shot. Like I said, whether the writers are aware of it or not, they wrote a fairly competent bit of anti-liberal agitprop.
