This film can be viewed from the perspective of power operation. Who owns the power? Government, people, politicians? In the future social development, what will be the most likely to master power? Master the money, master the information? The screenwriter should be a Foucault fan.
As far as ordinary people are concerned, your computer is not your computer, and your human brain is not your human brain . Your computer records information that even you can't remember and things you want to hide. Know you better than yourself, and betray you without profit temptation. Facebook can judge your gender, sexuality, race, job, and hobbies based on your likes. Your human brain is also unknowingly brainwashed while browsing the computer, such as posts posted, celebrity gossip posted. You are constantly being shaped and reshaped by these pushes. What will happen next? It seems that something is the result of a personal choice, but in fact it is neither a personal behavior nor a choice . For example, "Brexit". If "Brexit" is a bit far away from you, then you might as well think about your marriage, your job, and all the big and small decisions in your life. If the way to influence your decision in Inception is to enter your dreamland, that would be too strenuous. In real life, you only need to accept the push and browse the push. It's finished. Therefore, it is a kind of "pseudo empowerment" to give the people a vote.
Therefore, those who have information and data in the future may really stand at the top of power. Note that the person who holds the data is not the person who analyzes the data.
In a nonsense, I think of the neo-liberalism policy (Neo-liberalism) implemented by Margaret Thatcher in Britain. One of the drawbacks that has been criticized is the destruction of democracy. Thinking of the title again, uncivil war "civil" itself means "citizen". "Unreasonable warfare is" a kind of translation. "The collapse of democracy" is also one kind.
