Like all malls in their heyday, this one was a climate-controlled pleasuredome where strangers converged. It boasted waterfalls, fish ponds, an indoor ice skating rink larger than Rockefeller Center’s, and a monolithic clock tower illuminated year-round beneath a canopy of interconnected skylights. It also became the backdrop for filmmaker George A. Romero’s zombie opus Dawn of the Dead.

Almost everyone is doing it. Aimlessly scrolling through their social media feeds. From presidents to the postmen, most people you know and probably even yourself.

Warum stimmen sie ihrer eigenen Entrechtung zu und scheinen in ihre Ketten geradezu verliebt.

Wie würde es dir gefallen, wenn eine künstliche Intelligenz, über die Geburt und Tod deiner Kinder entscheiden würde, und du nur dann Kinder bekommen dürftest, wenn dein CO₂-Konto und die Sozialkreditpunkte deiner elektronischen Identität (EID) über genug Guthaben verfügen? Wie würdest du dich verhalten, wenn dir deine dystopische Regierung, dein Kind nach der Geburt einfach so entzieht und tötet, weil eine (KI) beschlossen hat, dass es den genetischen Anforderungen der WHO nicht entspricht, oder dein CO2-Budget schlicht zu niedrig ist, für eine legale Geburt.
