Meta Platforms. X Corp. tell me those aren't straight from a strangely prescient cyberpunk classic

Nah, calling the visions of aging tech bros on HRT art is a stretch too far.

They're talking about the visions of sci-fi authors, filmmakers, and artists. The tech Bros are the ones being drawn towards those artists' visions.

It aint the same vision.

They smashed the Rose-colored glasees in favor of orher lenses, one tinted the color of money. The other a swirl of gluttony, power, and dopamine.

It must suck to spend all day hating

Nah, it mostly sucks to have watched the tech bro crowd take something wonderful, that bemefited everyone and twist it into personal profit streams devoid of any soul and/or humanity.

I know those types are going to destroy us all, but everyone sucks so just let the bad times roll. Then the heads will follow. Rolling on the floor.
