THE SOCIAL DILEMMA has another problem

Unread post by AHE »

a NETFLIX pseudo documentary plays on the decades old fear of "Big Tech", in this case, social media.

There is, perhaps, a much larger and more troublesome issue that THE SOCIAL DILEMMA highlights without intending to do so: it's very own format.

The decision to present this "documentary" as a "drama hybrid" (fictional portrayals) is frightening, because it acknowledges that viewers are simply too stupid to absorb the content unless it is packaged in an entertainment format.
