Ridley Scott described the particular dystopia of the world of Blade Runner as "industrial imperialism". A world "run and owned by three corporations, maybe two, when it gets to one it gets really dangerous". And that when it gets to that point whether, it's imperialism, capitalism or communism, the end result is the same.
As corporations buy up our housing, sprout billionaires as the middle class disappears, encroach upon our elections, it seems we are running headlong towards it.
