Really love how this new season just fucking walks over what should be a extensive examination of a global revolt against techbros using a robot god machine to control lives and perform fucking eugenics. Like the previous season ends with a revolution and then this new one is just "yeeaaaahhh it's done and now everyone is back to regular work and the main character is doing their job as a lineman again" like wtf? Are liberal writers afraid of writing about the death of capital and neoliberalism?

Sometimes I think its just about the budget. Doing a bunch of scenes in board rooms and apartment hallways is just cheaper than doing big sweeping shots of large crowds tearing down the scenery.
But it also feels like TV shows are afraid to write outside the End Of History framework, yes.

Something something easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism. :zizek:
Not afraid, entirely uncapable.
