> the truth is always better A favourite Mr. Robot scenes has everybody at the AllSafe office
wearing a giant badge with their most fundamental truth written on it.
It mocks a "post-privacy" some fools advocate, via the cynical eyes of
Esmail's hacker character Elliot. Point being; human relations don't work on "truths" but on carefully
managed mutually secured fictions and personas to protect us and
preserve power relations. Traditionally we call those "manners"
(tactical lying so others can save face etc). But for the comedy of
unexpectedly volunteered truths, who wouldn't enjoy a Mufti Day, where
everyone at work gets to speak the unvarnished truth with absolute
impunity for a day? |
