Not sure I can agree with that, but otherwise none of this is surprising. It’s a dystopian, capitalist shithole like most modern countries are.
When the dream goes from being a turn of phrase to an accurate description of attainability, it’s no shock that some folks just say fuck it. We’re seeing it show up in a lot of places under various names but it ends out being the same generalized thing.
