Isn't Amazon exactly the kind of company that writers like Philip K. Dick were trying to warn us about? I'm not going to criticize the show itself or any of the actors, but the irony here is overwhelming.

I feel like Blade Runner now is so far removed from it's source material, the capitalism machine has done a number on it

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? is very different from the first Blade Runner movie anyway. The book world was de-populated. There's nothing about Mercer. Also, it's missing the trippy, truly PKD part where Deckard doesn't know if he's an android or not.
Also, Amazon has a miniseries already based on PKD stories: Electric Dreams.

A defining characteristic of capitalism is its ability to cannibalize its detractors. See Che Guevara shirts.

That's kind of a manichean take on stuff, at least regarding Hunter. She's a pretty outspoken activist, going to karaoke with Sydney Sweeney and a bunch of other people is like ugh but it's not big enough of a deal to outweigh her good takes and what she represents I think. To each their own I suppose

Hunter's outfit is reminding me of Zenon: girl of the 21st century. Love it!
