    And yet all that resistance ends up translating to individualistic defiance, sabotaging one power just to reluctantly grant advantage to another, sometimes terrorism. I guess if we strayed far enough from the common tropes of the genre, then yes you are right. But remember what is the origin of the genre - to my understanding, in its core it exists as satirical critique of neoliberal policy. I dunno, it feels essential to me, but genres are constructed
