Red goes faster!

China is committing genocide against the Uyghurs.

Well, I’ve only seen the movie. And I got bored half the way through and stopped watching.

Does Snowpiercer classify as Cyberpunk? Cyperpunk is “Low life and high tech”, and in Snowpiercer, the highest tech they have is the titular train. Apart from the train, they don’t really have much in the way of high tech. The only thing I can think of are the drawers.

Migrating away from the current system would require the powerful to give up their power, which they won’t do willingly, even as the walls are closing in. (In fact, when it comes to global warming, the walls are closing in).

So, why are declining birth rates not a problem?
