A psychedalic blend of painful colors is overlaid on a news blurb about tesla robotaxis having a "auto sanitization mode" using head and UVC light. On the left of the image there is a distorted blurb explaining the dangers of leaving a child in a hot car. Framing the image are the words "We are trapped in the belly of this horrible machine and the machine is in self clean mode". The right side of the image has a line of hexbear logos. Overlaid on all this are distorted, brightly colored images of Elon's sinister neckbeard smile.

It's like Biden said:

We need the machines.

We need the machines.

We need the machines.

Anyone remember that movie Elysium where Matt Damon is this working class dude on future Earth (which is basically Palestine but they speak Spanish) and all the rich people are on this giant spinning ring space station called Elysium but is actually Israel?

Well anyway this made me think of that scene where he's working at the robot factory and the door to an industrial robot radiation sanitizing oven is blocked by cargo. His asshole manager makes him go in the oven to dislodge the door against safety protocol. The moment he gets the door unstuck it snaps shut, the oven door locks, and the radiation alarm sounds as the oven floods the chamber and Matt Damon with ionizing radiation. His coworkers desperately try to pry the door open to no avail.

He wakes up later in a hospital bed, fired from his job. An automated robot doctor prescribes him anti-emetics for nausea and tells him he's been exposed to a lethal dose of radiation and has weeks to live. Then he's discharged from the hospital. That's it, no help, assistance or care from that point forward. He must illegally use a robotic exoskeleton to smuggle himself onto Elysium to try to gain access to one of their magic healing pods.

And if I remember correctly he martyr's himself to send the pods down to earth to save everyone, proving that the rich were hoarding what they could freely share.

There's also a scene where an honest-to-god Rhodesian mercenary killer, given unnaturally long life to be an assassin for the regime, shoots down a shuttle full of refugees seeking medical care that are trying to reach the space station. Kind of prescient really. Like, thoroughly dumb action movie, but Neil seems to have a good head on his shoulders.
