Buildings aren’t big enough for Blade Runner yet, and there’s still a veneer of government control.
(ETA: No one’s said it yet, but 1984 is so obvious that it wasn’t worth mentioning.)

Isn’t andor ww2? Obviously history echoes through to today, but my reading is nazism spreading in Europe.
Season 1 is, yes. Season 2 is very much targeting today.
I’m on,y half way through, but season 2 has Gorman people speaking with French accents and forming a resistance movement. The empire is performing audits of farming and crops. messaging is by radio signal and bugs are hidden in offices with nearby people monitoring over earpieces. It still seems to be nazism from last century, but of course there are echoes in any authoritarian situation, including today.
Furthering the discussion more generally, battlestar galactica had a great season on new caprica where the humans were terrorists undermining the cyclon rulers. This was aired during gulf 2, so was very topical.
Yeah the disinfo theme is quite heavy handed
I was thinking Mon Mothma’s speech, in particular.
