I thought that episode was pretty good overall.

The Waldo Moment was easily my least favorite episode.

I liked it a lot more before it became prophecy

That episode annoyed the fuck out of me. I can see the reasoning in forced advertising, but why in the everloving fuck is PORN mandatory viewing material?? I got pretty stoked when the guy started biking overtime, skipping meals, stealing food to get back on that TV show, I was like "oh it's ON, bitches." But all he did with that glass shard he smuggled in was threaten to kill himself while giving some incoherent rant... and then getting a TV show about it. I seriously thought he had an actual mission, but he didn't.

Also what was up with that creepy girl always staring at him? Bitch what the fuck you looking at, let me bike.

why? explain to me why you like it so much, and I don't mean that to be a douche.

the only part I liked was all of the advertising and that monetary system because it doesn't seem so far fetched. The rest I thought was just dumb.

That was fucked up as hell.

The whole episode was the most intellectually dark thing I've ever seen.

It also happens to be my favorite episode because it was executed to perfectly.

But all he did with that glass shard he smuggled in was threaten to kill himself while giving some incoherent rant... and then getting a TV show about it. I seriously thought he had an actual mission, but he didn't.

It was about commodification of everything, turning every element of humanity into something that just fueled that, he had a mission, to try to wake people up, to try to say the first most sincere thing people had seen in a while, to say something real, something that wasn't fake and made up. To call out the whole fucking bullshit system on it's bullshit.

And then his glass shard became something people could buy for their avatar. Because commodification doesn't fight enemies, it absorbs them.

And the porn thing makes sense, because the whole thing is without morals, so it takes a dreamer and if they've had too many dreamers they put her in a porn where she is fucked as she signs her "I'm a dreamer" beautiful song, because that's more marketable, and nobody cares because it's just what the mob gets swept up in.

I don't get people who don't get what it was doing. Like it was amazingly dark and pitch perfect, it was so fucking evil because the evil in it couldn't be fought, it just adapted and co-opted everything good in the world to turn it back into a commodity.

So yeah, it's amazing and sorry to say but I think people who didn't like it didn't get what it was about.

Nah, Waldo was better than "Entire History of You" which centered around a person who was the source of the conflict over the technology.

That one was a story that feature an interesting technology but was instead about how a douchey guy uses it.
