The theme and subject matter of Black Mirror are in the same line. This is not simply a question of whether the technology tree is crooked. In fact, how the technology tree is crooked is an active and subjective matter. Sometimes I will be very pessimistic about whether human beings will We must usher in the era of technological decline.

In the cyberpunk era, when the technological gap and class differences have reached the point where they cannot be changed through revolution, it is the dark abyss of most people; perhaps human beings will eventually be reborn in a historic disaster, reckoning, and reflecting on technology, but Can we avoid the cruelty of injuring the enemy by one thousand and self-destructing eight hundred?
