Comment, rate each other, and use points to allocate a series of resources: including social credit rating, the right to purchase specific items, the ranking of transportation resources... The score is a threshold, everyone gives you a score, and you give everyone a score. On the surface, this is a populist democracy, just like you score on Taobao, Amazon, and Dianping. But the reality is that what you think is very democratic scoring is behind the political mechanism of power distribution according to social status (score). This is especially horrifying in the data analysis consultant's analysis of the heroine's score source and promotion strategy. Of course, when you look away from the plot, it's not surprising that all this is so familiar, even if the analysts and heroines you talk to on the show are generally accustomed to it. Rather than questioning who this behavior is "pleasing", it is better to return to the first level of meaning, that is, alienation is a normal phenomenon, so what if there is no alienation? Is there such a truth?
So, when we look at the first meaning of Nosedive, do you really think the heroine doesn't know what she's doing? When the female truck driver talks to her about her high-scoring past, it seems to mean that the ending will be a rebirth of nirvana and the heroine finding her true self, but you are misunderstood. The heroine expresses it very clearly: I know what you said is very reasonable, but my life stage and age stage are different from yours. I am still young, and I have a lot of life that I have not lived. Like moths throwing fire, although they are asking for it, they know that they are asking for it, and naturally they are willing to bear the consequences. You feel that you know very well in your heart, so you can fully accept the torture of the process. So, another hidden trap is waiting for you at the end. When you suffer a lot (maybe the rules will even tell you that the negative energy can remind you where you need to improve, the ordeal is to accumulate character points...), Your only expectation is a drama that achieves its goals, but things are always open to development, and on the other side of the drama stands tragedy, which is always the potential expectation of the audience. Under this kind of observation, whether your expectations for the dramatic and tragic ending are immediately dispelled, and you are suddenly unable to experience a huge emotional gap, sadness, and emotion. Yes, so that you have a chance to raise awareness by bypassing senseless sentimentality.
To remind you what the truth is, the plot really goes to tragedy. Perhaps in the confinement room, the female protagonist's exchange of foul language with a man is to reveal the naked truth with a "disgraceful vulgarity". The truth is, no matter how high or low the score is, everyone in politics is in the heart of "disgraceful vulgarity", either the high score (decent class) is the vulgarity concealed by the hypocritical mask (revealed by the farce at the wedding), or the low score (no A decent class) way of life (how sham life is). So the play seems to reveal a truth to you here in the bloody woodland: Human nature is inherently evil, and all good things are illusory, just be yourself! If you want to send a circle of friends to a circle of friends, but you don't have to pretend. When you look back to this place, you can't help but admire in your heart, it really is a masterpiece of "Darkness"!
Ah, but sorry, I forgot to remind you that when you thought about it, you definitely didn't watch the first season. Whether this recurring "you" is you in the play or you outside the play, no one can tell. You are even more lost in watching. That is, taking a step forward can be just as boring and meaningless as taking a step back. Even with the smug faces of the choreographers who have achieved this effect, you have little interest in slapping the past. This is the truth of Black Mirror.
