Discussion of Themes
- Is on many things but mainly:
- Big Pharma (albeit inflated due to sci-fi ness, and being a VERY complex issue)
- Military Industrial Complex (ditto, also more corruption/ethic side)
- Secrecy in big government and corperate areas (both buzzwords)
- Abuse of science (abusing subjects etc)
- In/Neo sincerity in big government and corperate areas
- Emotional Manipulation in big government and corperate areas ESPECIALLY marketing / psa's / pr
- Also dodging questions / stereotpyic "politician talk"
Also does lots of the "n a t u r a l t h e r e f o r a u t o m a t i c a l l y good/safe" marketing diolouge of the neo-hippie / insincire hippy ad style
- This is contrasted by the blatant examples, and parallels to, the usa opiod epidemic
- For instance the "magic plant" type feedstock is rainbow painted opium poppies
- This is contrasted by the blatant examples, and parallels to, the usa opiod epidemic
- Sort of shows how companies can "loose that spark"
- It’s like a gravity assist, if used right it helps significantly to get you where you need to be, if you dip in too far and get sucked in, you crash
- It also uses Brutalism (mainly in the corperate buildings' design) to relate the authoritarianism of modern capitalism to the authoritarianism of many places that used brutalism (USSR, etc)
- The “the giant” aside/monologue (need to grab it)
- It also has that political thriller aspect of nearly ALL charachters being two faced, having plots/alterior motives, and thus "can't trust anyone" theme
- One charachter, the "original" boss/founder "shoots the shit" and is blatantly honest, albeit sometime hurtfully so, this may be the creators "cure/solution"
- They are also a farmer (who bred/discovered the "magic plant"
- Could be interpreted (in a film snob way) to be an Everyman / insert of the WORKING CLASS (yells in communist/socialist analysis lol)
- They are also a farmer (who bred/discovered the "magic plant"
- The military veterans are essentially being mk-ultra-ed (albeit WAy more scifi/parenoid etc;complex issue disclaimer...)
- They can also be seen as everyman, especially with how the usa honors military service as a civic duty of sorts
- They focus on and point out the contrast between this and how they are treated by society/the government as well
- ALSO the doctor's skepticism on cover stories for drug side effects (they are essentially amnestics in development disguised as ptsd treatment) is also sort of an aside to the viewer on "shutting up, and pushing foreward" in real life despite (fixable?) systemic issues (corruption, Doublethink etc )
- They can also be seen as everyman, especially with how the usa honors military service as a civic duty of sorts
Potential Lesons "learned"
- A good cautionary tale (not outright "don't do that" ) as OSE goes into marketing, and grows as a company
- A lot of this is in end of season 1/all of season 2 fyi
