In London atm and it really is beginning to feel like the dystopian London from V for Vendetta.
It's a jarring juxtaposition: all these beautiful buildings and gardens within the context of dystopian surveillance state that, if I understand Starmer correctly, is now using live AI facial recognition combined with more CCTV cameras per square km than anywhere else on earth.
I was listening to a bit of a Keir Starmer speech and it sounded almost exactly like high chancellor, Adam Sutler when he is ramping up surveillance and control to monitor dissident thought and capture V.
It’s as though these politicians have never seen a movie, or read a dystopian sci fi novel. They certainly have no sense of irony.
