Cyberpunk literature has been around for decades. They called it pretty accurately.
God they nailed it. Dystopian architecture crumbling for everyone else while billionaire CEOs live in giant mansions and party on yachts. While the working class is bombarded by sex and gambling ads.
Truly this is fucking hell.
Giant mansions made out of more or less glass.
Just a reminder to people in general...
I don’t think they called it. I think these techbros don’t have any ideas of their own so they’re just taking the worst ideas authors could come up with and calling it their own. None of their companieshave actually made anything new. They just throw a shiny coat of paint on what science fiction has warned us about.
“This story can’t stop me because ~~I can’t read~~ I’m too rich”
From the hit novel “don’t build the torment nexus?”
“Surely they wouldn’t have written it if they don’t want us to build it.” -dumb rich fucks
"No I did not finish the book, or learn of the consequences of the torment nexus. It just sounded neat" -dumb rich fucks
Slap an ad spot on the Nexus and 2 more on the Torment and watch those green candles.
