shneancy@lemmy.world 15 hours agosome episodes of Black Mirror struck terror into my heart like no other. They were grim warmings for the possible future masquerading as fiction, as grim warnings often do. Though what the show could not forsee was how fast it would come true. And it could not forsee how wide a scale would be affected, those were singular stories from those worlds, the effect of the technology showcased on the lives of a few, a pinhole view into the dystopia
if you haven’t already, watch the episode Be Right Back. you better start believing in sci-fi dystopias, we’re in one

Most of Black Mirror episodes are reality right now, not just far fetched sci-fi.
Sometimes they use technology to tell the story a bit differently, but it’s almost never anything new.

yeah i’m not the biggest fan of the seasons made by americans, they feel strangely hollow to me most of the time. the first two seasons has all my favourite episodes, and by favourite i mean the ones that made me weep for the future

“Don’t you dare go hollow!” and the Americans were like - Hold my beer!
