I recently watched Utopia, British show about a super secret group putting naughty stuff in a vaccine.
Their plan hinged on every person being so afraid of a pandemic that everybody takes the vaccine. This was made pre COVID of course, because we now know that would never work.
it’s actually a really great conspiracy thriller. I’d fully recommend it. I’m sure right wing weirdos could read too much into it and find a message they agree with, but they do that with everything anyways.
I didn’t find it overtly political beyond money = corruption = shady people being able to get away with shady stuff
Yeah I’m sure someone who doesn’t think much could definitely watch the show and come away thinking vaccines are dangerous, but that’s not the angle it pulls. It relies on there being only one vaccine manufacturer, that everybody takes it, and that nobody outside the scheme actually tests the vaccine.
Of course in the real world multiple companies manufacture the same vaccine and they’re tested by numerous organisations, so it falls apart pretty quickly.

Sounds like right wing porn.

If anything it’d probably annoy right wingers because it vocally blames humanity for environmental disaster.

Still a good show though.
