I'm not interested in this show, but I think by adding a scifi sheen and spooky music to the reality we live in, you can get showbrained people to be like "omg this is like my stories on the telly." It probably doesn't translate to much, but maybe it reframes someone's situation for them?
I dunno. I feel when “satire” is that on the nose, either cynical people are like “yeh duh”, or it goes over the heads of oblivious people. So what purpose did it serve? Getting some views for netflix? How subversive.
