In my opinion in order to maintain some kind of social control you do need to control the narrative and the media sources. That why I'm think in twenty years there will be tighter control over the internet and what is available on it. I also think because of the intardnet we will see the number of children grow who become very much involved in identity politics at an early age.

Here's some more sci-fi, think Robo Cop

Nevada bill would allow tech companies to create governments

Will it happen? I don't know, but its a start. If not this time maybe next or maybe in twenty years.

Social control? What do you think requiring masks and lockdowns is when the science points away from it as being effective outside of the clinical setting, but a trial run.

OCP- style megacorps? We're already there with tech companies and defense industries.

Time just published an article where they practically chortle like robber-barons while gloating that the left worked in unison with antifa/blm and Dems to stop Trump from being re-elected.

The only way to not end up 1984 is to get rid of every single elected official and CEO and put different people in their place. Term limits for all elected office is a good start. Preventing the government/industry/lobbyist revolving door is another good start.
