the term "Cyberpunk" is almost 50 years old, what's the modern equivalent to this old ass concept and persona, did "Cyberpunk" just die out like the original Western Cowboy?
>>109437107Solarpunk is better
>>109437107its still cyberpunkas in futuristic tech + seedy punk setting we still have that nothing changed
>>109437107it just became reality, in the lamest way possible
>what's the modern equivalent to this old ass concept and personaTechnofeudalismAs for personas, you're most likely a goy/rentoid
>>109437633The cyber dystopia is finally arriving. The punk part is the revolt against that which is only in its earliest stage now. Ludditism is not it. The technofeudalism works badly in cyberpunk and that creates opportunities to avoid it. We are seeing that come true rapidly.
>>109437685cattle are too busy and obedient doom scrolling to revolt.Also, revolt against what exactly? goys are literally 100% head in to the all digital hellscape to the point where they will literally have nothing if datacenters disappear.
>>109437442Friendly reminder that solarpunk is literally soijak aesthetics.
>>109437107The modern equivalent is still "cyberpunk" and it's becoming more relevant than ever.
>>109437107if you mean what's the modern cool tech aesthetic, you're not going to like the answer, but it is the gender fluid 20-something that has a discord harem, hates ai, and somehow gets corporate funding to rewrite obscure linux utilities in rustif you mean the concept, it doesn't really apply to the modern world because the idea was the opposition between the people of the time, used to things like privacy and dignity, and the near future of technology: control and surveillance. nowadays people don't expect privacy or dignity anymore so there is no conflict, the control and surveillance complex won by a wide marginlike, look at cyberpunk 2077 (the videogame): ultimately, the only statement it makes is that neon lights are cool and that massive surveillance, control, and wealth concentration is fine, it's just the rotten apples that are the problem. I don't want to call it goyslop because it carries an anti-semitic connotation, but it is the equivalent of that applied to culture
>>109437762Any genre beats the one we're living in, I'd rather be eaten by one of those monsters from the maze runner than spend my life building a credit score
>>109437732Revolt doesn't mean overthrowing the government
>>109437863well, it also means doling out justice and changing things in irreversible ways so none of this can ever happen again
>>109437107If you have to have a commodified, commercialized label "persona" "aesthetic" then you've already lost.
>>109437863never even mentioned or thought about governments you fucking moron
>>109437863Violent revolt is an option, but it'll be short if your opsec's weak. You'd be better off kicking them into irrelevance by tax evasion and parallel trade. Hell, you could do all of that shit and make things interesting for the corpo faggots fighting for their IPOs.
>>109437975You have to be 18 to post here
>>109437855You'll spend your life building a credit score whether the fiction you read tells you or not, retard.
>>109438176Suicide it is.
>>109437762Yes, because bug paste for dinner is better than a self-sufficient farm with android laborers, you're a cyberfaggot
>>109438233>After mega-corporations overtook our governments, they will let me buy a cheap robot once (which I then own forever) and let me be self sufficient for the rest of my lifeWhat drugs are you on?
>>109438399You're framing it from a low information perspective, in other words, retard.
>>109438465nta but it sounds like you're coping because you can refute his educated and easily observable prediction
>>109438691Literally no one can predict the future. But saying the general outcome will be a high tech caste system isn't a prediction, it's an upgrade to what already exists. You retarded faggots give it undeserved neon romanticism.
