There's even a joke there that Orwell would have liked.

I watched it so you don't have to. It's about a guy who is locked in a Covid-19 individual isolation facility for 7 years (that does not make sense since after about 2 weeks of everyone being locked up all the sick people would be non contagious). In a fantasy dystopia where lizard people are real (there is no evidence they are. It's a distracting conspiracy story) and people's freedoms of movement and privacy are completely restricted (privacy has been worse than the movie for a long time. Ironically the guy loves his tablet. Movement restrictions would be too expensive though.) Not to mention that everyone is forced to eat insects and no other meats (you don't need to eat insects. Meat consumption should be reduced bc. at least 14% of global greenhouse gas emissions are caused because of meat production according to a UN study). Also the rainforest is cut down because it emits CO2 at night(in reality this would release a lot of CO2 captured in the plants). Also only movies which are progressive are allowed ( also wasn't true as can be seen by the very films existance). There is a bunch of other stuff as well I don't have the time to get into. It's not funny or ironic or enlightening. It just gets the reason behind a lot of things happening in the real world wrong and then exaggerates those which makes the thing its trying to say even more wrong.

My understanding is lizard people means “the Jews that control everything” to these groups
