Another depressingly topical story from Seth about the toxicity of cancel culture and mob mentality, just like in Family Guy but not as blunt or condensed.
On paper, it’s a pretty neat framing idea: a planet essentially populated by Twitter sheeple that runs on a “legal system” where everyone’s fate is decided by public upvotes & downvotes, and the offenders have to go on apology tours to literally save their own lives.
This was a 10 for topical-ness, but man this was uncomfortable. If an episode hurts to watch in a good way, I say bravo.
Although if I may play a tiny bit of devil’s advocate, this alien government living by actual popular vote sounds like a utopia for deciding which actual corrupt politicians lives or dies, you know kinda like how we used to overthrow corrupt kings & queens.
