In the series, corporations get a bailout when things get bad, collude to make it worse with profits over people and then basically buy off world governments in a reverse bail out to take control of the system. With a “Corporate Congress” and all people having a “life debt”.

Oh, and the time travel aspect of it is pretty cool too.

    Actually, it’s more like Revelations from the Bible. Trump is the devil, corporations are the horsemen, chatgpt is the mark of the beast and israel is in conflict. It’s all right there!

    Now if that made you scoff or roll your eyes, realize that conflating our real, actual lives with fiction is just as useful. It’s entertainment, not prophecy. Can we just fucking stop already?

      Wasn’t The Book of Revelation just an acid, fever dream fanfic about Nero coming back from the dead? Kinda not relevant.
