I might be weird, because I'm the opposite. I find the whole "fight the man" anonymous posturing stuff kind of juvenile and even cringe-worthy at times (though I kind of liked the nod to tinfoil hatters with the "crisis actor" murder; I'm hoping this is part of further self-aware plot development where E Corp is revealed to not be quite as bad as originally portrayed). The hacking side is cool, but the politics feel extremely shallow.
Yet I find the psychological issues and split personality exploration really fascianting. Is it realistic? No, not at all. But I like how the actor portrays Elliot's anguish.
- bduerst 10y agoI thought it's cringey because it's satire on Anonymous? Even the main character (that narrates) seems to think that the hacks and anti-corporate rhetoric are kind of pointless and juvenile.

- cmurf 10y agoI agree. And what is a realistic way to convey hallucinations to others who have never experienced them? How do you convey scent in a photograph?
