Tangential socialist musings on the "cyperpunk discourse".
I'd rather see technological progress depicted in materially realistic, sustainable, and democratic way, based on genuine advancements instead of slick marketing and planned obsolescence, and for the benefit of everyone in the *world* and future generations.
re: Tangential socialist musings on the "cyperpunk discourse"; real world capitalism and imperialism.
In particular acknowledging the people of the periphery nations which, in the real world, are hyper-exploited to pillage and pollute their own environment to mine, manufacture, and transport for an endless stream of disposable technology going to the imperial core.
