I predict much of the anger and animosity towards tech world will subside as more and more people watch You Can See Everything. Nathan Fielder applied the ancient ritual of bloodletting and penance to the most charged present moment and executed it on screen with precision.
Post COVID, nobody knew who to trust, how to behave in public, what to talk about etc. I think we are finally past that now. And Hollywood - an incumbent as powerful and irreplaceable as the US military - is the one who got us here.
