It's like these people take the wrong kind of notes after watching prophetic dystopian science fiction

Well you’re looking at their point of view incorrectly.

The people that are taking the notes are the people that would end up in the high towers where the sunlight reaches.

So warnings to us are roadmaps to them.

There won’t be any dystopian overcoming for them when I make grimaced facial contortions directed at their mannecameras to analyze. Their system will self-destruct with all the expressions I can cycle through in a second. I’ll be standing at the foundation of their ivory towers kicking them until they fall, all the while my doo doo farts in the act rise stinky clouds above their glass ceilings. Instead of the sun, they will see a gaseous brown piece of what I did to a glazed turkey dinner the night before with the many visages of my profile superimposed over their disastrous nightmare of a victorious sky.

No, they’re not. They’re engineers.

The people in high towers don’t do work.

Yeah, and they could like... Just ask me.

If there was a poll next to the mannequins I would be happy to let them know how I feel. What it generally boils down to is I want longer tops, deeper pockets, and stop cutting random holes in everything. Can their dystopian video surveillance catch all of that?

It's just people looking to make money by putting surveillance equipment in everything.

Right!? 1984 was a warning, not a how-to manual.

They watch them and think “hmmm that looks profitable.”
