Message: [QUOTE="nerdelitist, post: 251076, member: 592582"] I've only watched the first season of Squid Game, but the irony with this show is that it explicitly criticizes violent voyeurism, the exploitation of the poorest by the richest, and the way in which the spectacle of human suffering becomes entertainment... while itself making it mass entertainment with millions of viewers demanding a new season every year to satisfy their morbid curiosity.[B] [/B] It's a bit like Fight Club, which criticizes consumer society... while at the same time becoming a cult product, with merchandising and stylized quotations. [B][SIZE=6]Squid Game criticizes a system of which it is a part, and on which it depends for its success.[/SIZE][/B] From that point of view, I think it's a fine demonstration of the selfishness and hypocrisy of social dynamics.
