It’s a lot of fancy words but they basically strap a tv to your face and force feed you gore while they zap your brain and make you feel like shit.
I was expecting venture capitalist pipe dreams and the usual disconnect, not full on Gitmo lol
Real horror show…
wow. I did not realize the persons clockwork orange comment was on the nose.
This reads like an April Fools joke.
Apparently decades of science-fictional takes have not been able to make people understand why this is a Bad Idea and we shouldn’t even be talking about it except to say, “Absolutely not!”
When people misinterpret The Boys and form a fandom based on their false assumptions, I’m not surprised anymore
We have finally invented the Torment Nexus from popular novel Don’t Invent the Torment Nexus.
These freaks took a Clockwork Orange for a manual.
This is just on the outside edge of A Clockwork Orange.
Demolition Man?? Can’t wait for this to go wrong.
He seemed to really like knitting though.
Chief O’Brien does not approve
There was another movie around this idea very recently, maybe a couple years ago. Can’t remember the name though.
Young woman in isolation, think she helped create the system, maybe was on Netflix like 4 years ago?
There is a black mirror episode where a person puts an implant inside their brain that hears an echo of their brain wave activity. Once the implant essentially becomes that person, it’s removed and put into a smart home device.
It’s a three parter, an other bit has a criminals copy being tortured to get a confession out of it.
It’s a Christmas special so it’s a solid hour and a half.
Or maybe oxygen, came out in 2021
Oxygen has an interesting plot, similar, but not it.
I think the prison angle in this film wasn’t the main premise. Just how a technology was used.
There was an eye drop that delivered a drug or something that could…do something to your brain.
Uggh, wish I could remember more.
I don’t suppose you mean Altered Carbon, where the premise is people don’t die as their entire memory and consciousness could be captured in a tiny tube the size of a modern day fuse; and opens where they’re investigating the suicide of a young woman who jumped to her death but have registered as DNR or something like that?
Similar style, but that was a mini-series (for lack of a better description).
This was a movie (IIRC), and she was held in a prison in her mind (so she thought), I can’t remember the details. Futuristic, but not very far into the future.
Chief O’Brien has some thoughts on this.
This can’t be real?
First of all it’s almost certainly torture and human rights violations.
Secondly, never mind freedom of speech - now you can’t even have your thoughts to yourself.
Fuck. That.
The only people this should ever be used on is the assholes who came up with it. Black Mirror wasn’t meant to be a playbook people!
This is satire, right?
The AI bubble trying to leech money from the prison state. Hopefully this is a sign of it’s collapse and not its intransigence.
Brain Stapling… nice.
