I have not seen Squid Game. Has the show influenced your preferences or outlooks in terms of governance or social dynamics?
- nr2x 5y agoIMHO, Mainly it made people realize how bad the status quo is all over the world. It's a global hit for a reason.
- bellyfullofbac 5y agoI think the show is a metaphor of how cruel we can be in society, in the show they'd do handshake deals with each other but they're still not sure they can trust each other, in this capitalistic/neo-liberalist world we also want things on paper with signatures to make sure whatever deal we're doing the other party doesn't screw us over, but still a lot of people do try to take maximum advantage, even if it means ruin (in the show: death) for the other side.
