Leave the World Behind movie (Netflix)

Well this was an interesting movie. Basically, it's if there was a cyberattack today from, say, China, or Russia, or Iran (or all 3) and then being a slow invasion from within. Complete with cooking downs with microwave radiation. I like how the end still lets you come to your own conclusions on a lot of things... but I didn't like how a layer of "systemic racism" is needlessly brushed on top of things, largely coming from the black daughter character.

Also, apparently the movie was executive produced by Barack and Michelle Obama for some reason.

The video is a little bit of a reach. I wouldn't be 100% that the Tesla stuff in the movie is a jab at Elon, but it could very well be. Though the idea that certain people seem to be very keen on us getting used to the idea of a large cyber-attack in the next couple of years is an interesting one.
