GHOST: I hope someone finds this.

No one said or did anything to stop them.

It's too late for me. (melancholic music)

I was alone.

It may not be too late for you.

(dramatic music)

(inferno raging)

(flames crackling)

(wind blowing)

(high tempo music)

(waves churning)

(suspenseful music fades in)

(drones buzzing)

(cameras whirring)

(metal hooves clopping)

(drones buzzing loudly)

(sticks beating) (people screaming)

(soldier screams inaudibly)

Come on!

(cameras whirring)

MAN: America's changed,
you understand that?

I think to create the perfect
union of democracy

has been a struggle...

(man screaming)

(men struggling)

RECORDED VOICE: Dear passengers,

people who behave disorderly
in public areas

will be punished according to regulations,

and their behaviour will be recorded.

To avoid any negative record
of personal credit,

please follow the relevant regulations.

(uplifting music)

(dramatic music fades in)

(men chatting)

So, whatever else happens now,
it's all in a day's work.

(cacophony of birds singing)

(trains whooshing)

(clacking)

(wind whooshing)

(eerie background sounds)

(suspenseful music)

GHOST: I can still remember my grandma.

(sighs)

I used to help her out.

My grandma used to say her memories

were slipping through
her fingers like sand.

She said, we didn't know it,

but that was happening to all of us too.

She said soon,
there'd be no past, no history.

She said it was the truth,
and she didn't care who heard.

Then one day, they came for her,

and she was gone. (winding)

That stabbed to the heart of me,

it silenced me.

I never spoke again.

I ran.

I'm still running.

(explosions)

My life's turned into
one of those sci-fi comics

I used to read.

I live off-grid.

My place is in Shoes,
on the lower ground.

(rumbling, banging)

There are others here.

Survivors.

Renegades.

(men chatting)

MAN: Know what I'm saying?
Anyone know why I'm saying this?

GHOST: There's a tunnel up to Fragrances,

where the old entrance was.

(muffled shouting)

It's one of the six ways up to the surface.

(rumbling, whistling)

(tin rattling)

(indistinct chatter)

(dramatic music)

(men chattering)

Hey, Ghost.

Going up?

Stay safe.

I met this guy, Jack,

dumpster-diving one night.

It was me who got him in here.

Hey, I've found an old picture
you might like.

GHOST: He's got these goofy,
puppy dog eyes.

I'll show it to you later.

GHOST: He's an AI.

Stay safe.

GHOST: He listens and watches eve hing.

(ominous music)

You can't trust anyone anymore.

When you glean up
on the surface, after curfew,

you have to be quick.

You avoid the dogs,

you dodge the street militia.
(glass clinks)

(ominous music intensifies)

(gunfire)

ANNOUNCEMENT: Move north,
disperse from the area north.

This is now a civil disturbance.

Failure to do so could result
in arrest and the use of force,

including riot patrol agents and...

GHOST: People thought the world would end.

(shouting)

But the world goes on.

(sirens blaring)

(Taser zapping)

It's us who will end.

(police sirens)

ANNOUNCEMENT: Must leave
the area immediately.

Failure to comply with this
order may subject you to arrest

and may subject you to the use
of riot patrol agents

or impact weapons.

This is the police department.

You are violating state imposed curfew.

Go home or you will be arrested.

(sirens blaring)

(loud clanking)

GHOST: Gleaning is how we get by.

We pick over the leftovers,
the broken, the rejected

anything we can use.

Thanks, Ghost. I love it!

GHOST: Those puppy dog eyes.

I love this hat.

(men shouting)

(eerie music)

I have no mercy or compassion in me

for a society that will crush people,

and then penalise them for not
being able to stand up

under the weight.

(rewind whirring)

How did we get here?

How did we let this happen? (rioting)

In the late 1980s, early 1990s,

you were in a moment of
democratic triumph.

We're now in a democratic recession,

and it's endemic in Eastern Europe,

in Western Europe,

in the United States, India,

the Philippines.

This is a new age of impunity.

Some countries are actually
just going back to the age

of elite power.

The financial system is rocked
to its foundation,

as top Wall Street institutions...

If you have an economic crisis,

and/or a refugee crisis,

these demagogues rise.

They're promising to protect
you from a threat

that doesn't exist.

You have an incredibly dishonest
right-wing media,

who pushes disinformation.

(high tempo music)

Hate and fear are being sown

online across the world,

spreading lies paid for with illegal cash.

It's subversion.

(protestors shouting)

What Putin saw, is, he's like,

"Holy shit, I can hack this system,

and then control global
capitalism, and politics."

There are transnational oligarchs

funding dark money think-tanks

and fake institutions.

Americans for prosperity.

Renowned Washington
think-tank, the Cato Institute.

The Institute of Economic Affairs.

They're lobby shops, set up
to influence politics

on behalf of ideological
billionaires and big business.

It's disrupting democracy.

Social media has enabled
the rise of these populist

authoritarian-style leaders.

We will root out the communists, Marxists,

fascists and the radical left thugs

that live like vermin within
the confines of our country.

We will make America great again.

So, you would say that white
supremacist tied publications

meet a rigorous standard
for fact-checking?

REPORTER: Facebook's site has
been used to incite violence

against Rohingya refugees in Myanmar.

Mr Modi has driven Muslims of
this country to the wall.

I have a particular responsibility,

it is to end the free movement
of people once and for all.

(applause)

REPORTER: Europe is in the heat
of a battle

about the future of democracy,

and Hungary is now the front line.

It's not just Putin and Orbán,

there's an alliance of dictatorships.

(explosion) There's no subtlety

in Netanyahu's ambition to claim
all of the Palestinian state.

There's a global effort by people in power

to stay in power.

They care more about maintaining
power for their clique,

than a broader sense of common good.

(ominous music)

(gunshot)

REPORTER: The volume of killing
here is quite extraordinary.

In the 80 or so days
that Duterte has been in power,

there's now been an average of
somewhere between 35 and 40

police killings of drug-pushers
and drug users every day.

So no qualms about killing killers?

I'm a journalist. This is my
37th year as a journalist.

What's the role of journalism?
Journalism, the mission:

holding power to account,
public and private.

As President, you now also
defend the constitution.

- Yes.
- You break the law,

you threaten to break the law.

You said you had killed a year ago, right?

You told me that,

and yet you now have the task of

keeping the rule of law

and you said you would do
that also. How do you...?

When Duterte took office,

our institutions crumbled.

He became the most powerful
person within six months.

We continue doing our reporting.

(high tempo music)

(rioters shouting)

On the worst day of the violence,

when murder and looting were taking place

all across the city, we saw
policemen just standing by,

watching what was happening

but doing nothing to tr to stop it.

When you look back over the last months,

you've been the leader of this state

through a very difficult period,

do you think there's anything that
you should have done differently?

Yes, one area where I was very, very weak,

and that was how to handle the media.

RANA AYYUB: He doesn't like criticism,

he's self-obsessed,

he's a megalomaniac,

and I say that all the time.

My name is Rana Ayyub.

I'm a global opinions writer
with the Washington Post,

I'm an investigative journalist.

I write stuff which
the government does not like.

Mr Modi is going from strength
to strength.

He's become a leader of anti-Muslim

bigots across the country.

I spoke about the fact that

here is a man who's an authoritarian,

whose only politics is his
prejudice of Muslims,

whose only politics is
persecution of Muslims,

and if this man comes to power,

he is going to repeat that,

and that's exactly what has transpired

since Modi came to power in 2014.

(screaming) (glass smashing)

I believe that I'm standing up
for just bearing witness.

I don't even want to do anything.

I don't want to be anybody's hero.

I don't want to be put on a pedestal.

I just wanted to speak my truth.

(high tempo music)

(police sirens blaring)

Nigel, Nigel, this way!

Nigel!

They know this referendum

is too close to call,

and are stepping up the intensity

with just a week to go till polling day.

When ISIS say they will use
the migrant crisis

to flood the continent
with their Jihadi terrorists,

they probably mean it.

Now, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance

for us to take back control
of our immigration system.

The majority of people in this country

are suffering as a result of
our membership of the European Union.

If people feel that voting
doesn't change anything,

then violence is the next step.

(shouting) (siren wailing)

What I and other journalists
have uncovered

is that multiple crimes took
place during the referendum.

It was the biggest electoral fraud

in Britain for 100 years.

I'm a journalist.

I kind of came into
investigative journalism

accidentally, when I was a feature writer.

This is what they were posting
on Facebook,

paid for with illegal cash.

How do you hold power to account?

That's all I'm trying to figure out is like

what are the different
mechanisms for holding

power to account?

Because the old ways don't work anymore.

We have no idea who saw what ads,

or even who placed the ads,

or how much money was spent,

or even what nationality they were.

When I stumbled into this story,

it was really like the scales
falling away from my eyes,

and when I understood so much is actually

controlled beyond the naked eye.

If you're interested, what I'd like to do

is set up something,
and I'll fund it somehow,

that I think... and I think
you're the perfect guy,

we help knit together

this populist nationalist movement

throughout the world,

'cause guys in Egypt are coming to me,

the Modi's guys in India,

Duterte, you know, and we get
Orbán, and we are somehow,

some sort of convening authority.

It's a global revolt.

(high intensity music)

The game-changer was the weaponisation

of social media.

I got 90 hate messages per hour.

That's when I began to realise,
this is really different.

These tech companies enabled a real shift,

because exponential lies
literally came at us so fast

that our human capacity to absorb

and fight back was gone.

(messages pinging)

8.5 million tweets were directed
against me,

in which the language is so
similar, Jihadi, burqa-clad,

ISIS sex slave, you know,
terrorist sympathiser.

CAROLE CADWALLADR: I personally
got really targeted.

There was this systemic
harassment going on online.

It became overwhelming.

The weaponisation of social media

was quickly followed by
the weaponisation of the law.

REPORTER: A prominent critic of
Philippine President,

Rodrigo Duterte, has been arrested.

Maria Ressa is CEO and Executive Editor

for the online news site, Rappler.

REPORTER: Journalist Rana Ayyub,
who's been a fierce critic

of the government
led by Prime Minister Modi,

has been named in a charge sheet

filed by the Enforcement Directorate
over alleged money-laundering.

REPORTER: Carole Cadwalladr, as a result

of your reporting on Brexit,

you have been sued by a British
businessman.

RANA AYYUB: This boys' club
reads each other's manuals,

okay, what have we done?

Minorities silenced, media silenced,

dissenters arrested, killed.

Social media, we have co-opted them.

Information technology, we have used them.

They all follow the same play book.

Now it fits, now it fits how you
make journalists and critics

and activists enemies of the state.

If you don't have facts,
you can't have truth.

Without truth, you can't have trust.

If you don't have any of these three,

you don't have a shared reality.

You can't solve any

like let alone existential problems

like climate change,
you can't solve any problem.

You cannot have democracy.

(clanging)

Isn't this a science fiction
movie? (Laughs)

(rumbling)

(ominous music)

(winding/whirring)
GHOST: Grandma read newspapers,

watched news non-stop.

She recorded everything,

said she was keeping the receipts.

I didn't understand, I was too young.

News disappeared, just like Grandma.

(clanging)

Nobody noticed or cared.

(water drips)

AUTOMATED VOICE: Name?

Where were you born?

(eerie music)

Where in New San Francisco
have you visited?

(rumbling)

(women chatting)

(whirring/winding)

GHOST: Ever day I pass the same
people on my way up.

The girl who used to sing is gone.

It's like one by one
they're turning into ghosts,

or grains of sand.

(rustling)

(unclear voices, shouting)

(rustling)

(water splashing)

GHOST: There was one place

a secret place my grandma
used to take me to.

When I was small,

I thought this was where people
came to pray.

(melancholic violin music)

It was a place where you
could read books.

There was special writing too,

about things you couldn't see,

where you could meet people

and not be afraid they'd rat you out
to the authorities.

It's where my grandma left me
eve hing she'd saved.

All the memories,

and all the recordings she'd made.

Her receipts from her life,

and from a long time before, too.

I can feel people all around me.

My parents are here,

and my grandma too.

It's our memory they want to wipe out,

language, culture,

and history.

And people connecting,

people protesting.

This is why they came for Grandma.

They said it's wrong.

They said it's a crime.

And I know one day
they'll come for me, too.

(treacherous music)

(drone buzzing)

The event wasn't just one thing.

It was a slow creep.

Places we used to visit got taken over,

walls got built,

access was denied.

When you're desperate,

just surviving,

you can't see what's been taken away.

(wind blowing)

You can't fight back.

(engines rumbling)

(rocks crashing)

(foreboding music)

(children chattering)

(simmering)

(crunching)

(children chattering)

ANNOUNCEMENT: Illegal border
crossing is forbidden.

You will face criminal charges.

(static electricity)

(digital beeping)

GHOST: My grandma used to tell me
how when she was a girl,

she played with other kids in the park.

(motor whirring)

And one by one, they stopped showing up.

Some of them got sucked into
screen images.

Some of them got suicidal.

(tense music)

Others vanished.

(high tempo music)

(people chattering) (cutlery clinking)

(clanking)

(rustling)

(radio chatter)

(drone buzzing)

(lens whirring)

(beeping, whirring)

(static electricity)

(suspenseful music)

REPORTER: You're looking at
the World Trade Centre,

we understand that a plane has crashed

into the World Trade Centre.

We don't know anything more than that.

(threatening music)

(dramatic music)

(ominous music)

REPORTER: The Uyghurs have many
of the same complaints

as the Tibetans.

They say they're discriminated against,

that they're not allowed to
practise their religion

and culture freely.

And they're afraid to speak
in public, especially now.

One man said to me,

"You talk today,

and tomorrow
your whole family disappears."

(suspenseful music)

REPORTER: Human rights campaigners say
that over a million people

have been interned in concentration camps

in the far west province of Xinjiang.

It's probably the largest internment

of an ethnic or religious minority

since the Holocaust.

(loud street chatter)

(scooter buzzing)

We're on the precipice

of probably the biggest revolution

that the world has gone through
in modern times.

China is the blueprint,

because this technology is for sale.

(treacherous music)

Israeli soldiers use
facial recognition software

to take photos of Palestinians,

in order to scan their faces
into this Wolf Pack database.

It's the latest component,
really, of a system of total

surveillance of
the Palestinian population.

(ominous music) (drone buzzing)

Israel have found a way to control

millions and millions of Palestinians

through surveillance technology,

through weapons, through drones.

(explosion)

A myriad of surveillance and repression,

and Israel says, if you want to
have good relations with us,

we'll sell you this amazing technology,

so you can also surveil
your dissidents and critics.

(sirens blaring) (woman screams)

(explosion)

Technology's integrated into warfare,

and there are algorithms that
help guide military strategy

that offer death and destruction
among civilians.

You're removing people
from the decision-making,

so you don't even have any capacity

to bring a perspective on whether or not

we should drop a 2000-pound bomb
on a refugee camp.

(ominous music) (cameras whirring)

(robot whirring)

The way in which we communicate
and live is changing.

The possibilities for what people

in positions of power can do,

and the way that they can
intrude into our lives,

into our relationships, has all changed.

Because we have this
totalitarian architecture

around us, you only need
a change of government,

or change of circumstances,

before it's used in a totalitarian way,

when it's too late.

(gunshot)

(muffled loudspeaker)

AUTOMATED VOICE: Names of
relatives and associates?

What groups or organisations
do you connect with?

Do you have contact with any
illegals in America?

(distant rumbling, clanging)

(pages turning)

(rumbling)

GHOST: I believe there will be a clash

between those who want freedom,

justice and equality,

and those who want systems
of exploitation.

Do you have a teapot?

Do you mind?

Water?

(water pouring)

(gas stove hissing)

(teapot clangs)

Greek mountain tea.

My secret store.

Hmm.

I'm surprised it still has any scent left.

Perhaps there's still someone out there

collecting it from the hills.

Perhaps there's still hills out there.

Perhaps there's a Greece,

a Japan

if they're not both under the sea.

Hmm.

(futuristic music)

"There is no better teacher
than adversity."

Every defeat, every heartbreak,

every loss contains its own seed.

They killed the guy that
said it, but it's still true.

(slurping)

Hmm, that's right.

(treacherous music)

Somebody has to win.

(sniffs)

GHOST: She used to be
a professor of history,

until AI decided what she taught

was obscene and criminal.

That's when she came down
to live with us.

This was the last time I saw her,

she vanished soon after.

Happens all the time.

That's how I know she was a true friend,

someone I could trust.

But it's too late now, she's gone.

(sirens blaring)

Welcome.

(applause)

Wow.

You purchased Twitter with

to do something for charity.

There's a new set of kings
that nobody voted for,

and they have more money and power

than any corporation ever has.

REPORTER: Tesla boss, Elon Musk,

is now the richest person in the world,

with a net worth of $185 billion.

REPORTER: Facebook's got
$46 billion in cash.

The cash flow's somewhere
around $10.5/11 billion.

REPORTER: Google's parent
company, Alphabet, surged,

for the full year revenue
rose to nearly $75 billion.

That now makes Alphabet

the world's most valuable company,

ahead of Apple.

REPORTER: I just want to jump in with
some Amazon numbers:

revenue, $89 billion.

They are powerful not simply because

they have all the money and the wealth,

but because they've amassed
all of the information.

Age, gender, ethnicity, religion,

what car you drive,

what products you purchase in shops,

what churches you attend,

how you see the world,
what actually drives you.

How open you are to new experiences,

whether you prefer order and habits

and planning in your life,
how social you are,

how much you tend to worry.

Big data is an understanding
of your personality,

because it's personality that
drives behaviour,

and behaviour obviously
influences how you vote.

These technology companies

have become behaviour-
modification systems

for sale to the highest bidder.

(high tempo music)

We are worth more when we are dead slabs

of predictable human behaviour,

than when we are as living, breathing

informed citizens of a democracy.

We are worth more when we are addicted,

outraged, distracted, polarised
and disinformed,

than if we are living, breathing,

free humans and citizens.

Technology domesticates us
into the new kind of human.

The last time human beings
were com modified,

it was the age of industrialisation,

and it was labour,

and when labour was com modified,

we had sweatshops, we had factory lines,

we had child labour,

we had exploitation
of our physical bodies.

Now what's com modified is not
our physical bodies,

it's our attention.

So what are they going to do next?

(futuristic music)

(dramatic music)

In 2017, a new AI engine got invented.

These things are generative,
large language,

multimodal models.

(computer generated speech)

These models treat absolutely
everything as language.

(high tempo music)

Everything human beings do
runs on top of language:

our laws,

the idea of a nation state,

friendships and relationships.

And just like AI can now translate
between human languages,

you can translate between almost anything.

Images can be treated as language.

Sound becomes a language.
(synth sound)

DNA is just another kind of language.

This becomes the total decoding
and synthesising of reality.

These models are so sophisticated

that they can actually
autonomously generate

anything that you might think
is unique to human creativity,

or human intelligence.

It is a massive cybersecurity issue,

it's a national security issue.

It is a potent threat for
geopolitics, election hacking,

because anybody's identity can
be assumed and appropriated.

There's absolutely no guard rails,

no laws,

nothing that prevents
the tech from gambling on this

without any consequences.

The longer nation states do not
use their power

to regulate artificial intelligence,

the more data and power it gets,

which usurps the powers of nation states.

This is right up front, changing our lives.

(high tempo music continues)

Every worker has a scanner at all times

that basically tracks
exactly where you're at.

What they're doing is they're producing

this massive data that they are using

to be able to analyse
the entire workforce.

We're not treated as human beings,

we're not even treated as robots.

We're treated as part of the data stream.

We are now solving problems
with machine learning

and artificial intelligence

that were in the realm of science fiction

for the last several decades.

There will come a point where
no job is needed,

the AI will be able to do everything.

(drone buzzing)

So how do we build a society

where it's not just the owners
of all the machines,

and they own all the wealth,

and then all the rest of us
are kind of serfs?

(et humming)

The wealthy getting wealthier,
the poorer getting poorer,

AI will exacerbate that,

and that, I think, will tear society apart,

because the rich will have just too much,

and those who are have-nots
will have very little way

of digging themselves out of the hole.

What we're looking at
is a paradigm change

in human communication,
even human evolution.

The key question is,
who controls the machines?

I am the reason OpenAl exists.

Perhaps the most important
foundational technology

of our time, artificial intelligence.

Basically, there's no
institution in the world

that cannot be improved
with machine learning.

(dramatic music)

If we continue giving our money

to these technology corporations,

these people will have
more power and wealth

than the entire world.

And that's what the most
alarming thing is.

Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome on stage,

Peter Thiel. (Applause)

From a libertarian perspective,

the Western governments are not
working that well,

there are all these things,

they're not very competent.

MAX CHAFKIN: Peter Thiel,

the most influential venture capitalist
in Silicon Valley.

And as a libertarian,

I'm always sort of anti-government,
anti the state,

but there's also been
an extraordinary decline of

competence of the US government.

He is ultra-libertarian.

I mean, it's like a real bring
down the system ethos.

Our system only works with growth.

If you try to have a zero growth society,

it would represent a tremendous
break from our past.

MAX CHAFKIN: Billionaires should
be allowed to pay less in taxes.

Businesses should be allowed
increasing freedom,

you know, bordering on the freedom

to kind of run the world.

Corporations are underrated,

because so many of these
other institutions do not work.

It's one of the things
that's endlessly frustrating

to a lot of the very successful
people in Silicon Valley.

MAX CHAFKIN: He's not just this
singular figure,

he's somebody whose ideas
have proliferated.

Following Thiel is sort of this path

through the history of Silicon Valley.

It's obviously very dysfunctional

to have mass homelessness,

it's very dysfunctional
to have no law and order.

But if you think of it as
a sort of inefficient

redistributionist strategy,

there's a lot of it that has
a certain weird perverse logic.

In San Francisco,
where I lived for 15 years,

the homeless people
were in the lower parts of town.

They didn't climb up the hills.

The value of the houses
on the hills went up way more

than the value of the houses
on the flat parts went down.

And so you have to think of
the homeless people as like

this feature to increase the value

of the higher-end real estate in the city.

(typeface clacking)

Peter Thiel owns this company, Palantir,

a Silicon Valley big data company,

which has got its claws
into the British government,

and it's infiltrating itself into the NHS.

Concordance wants to fix

the fragmented healthcare supply chain.

This new health service will be
organised on a national scale,

as a public responsibility.

And so everyone will pay for it,

and everyone will benefit from it.

When you're ill, you won't have
to pay for it.

What we have in the NHS

is an entire nation's medical history,

from cradle to the grave.

That is a vast data set,
at an individual level,

and then at a nationwide level.

So, if you want to do anything
with healthcare and big data,

it is a massive asset.

REPORTER: US tech firm,
Palantir Technologies,

has won the biggest IT contract

in the history of NHS England.

The company have been awarded
a £330 million deal

to provide AI software to bring
together the data of patients.

It's really, really important

people are transparent with
what ultimately is our data.

The first funding that Palantir ever got

was actually the venture capital
arm of the CIA.

And up until very recently,
all of its customers

were the government.

This includes the Department of Justice,

Department of Defence,

Department of Homeland Security,

immigration, customs enforcement.

The idea that a company like that,

a company involved in surveillance,

in counter-terrorism,
in border enforcement,

has any place in the NHS is ridiculous.

He's ahead of the curve,
and I want to thank you,

you're a very special guy.

CORI CRIDER: Peter Thiel is a
perfect example

of a libertarian tech bro,

who believes that what we really need

is to get away from the reins of the state,

and just set up some kind of
free-for-all system

where the billionaire Übermensch

can live unfettered by other people.

We have to save this planet,

and we shouldn't give up a future

for our grandchildren's
grandchildren, of dynamism

and growth - we can have both.

Manufactured worlds,

rotated to create artificial
gravity with centrifugal force.

These are very large structures,
miles on end,

and they hold a million people
or more each.

High-speed transport, agricultural areas.

Some of them would be more recreational.

You could have a recreational one
that keeps a zero G,

so that you can go flying.

These are ideal climates,

these are shirt-sleeve environments.

People are going to want to live here.

Techno-libertarians are really hoping for

some kind of a techno-monarchy,

where this group of elite tech bros

creates the block chain and the algorithms

that automate our reality

under their benevolent programming,
God-like wisdom.

(dramatic music) (rockets blasting)

DOUGLAS RUSHKOFF: It's survival
of the richest,

because they're preparing for
a civilisation threatening

catastrophe in their lifetime, the event,

the thermonuclear war,

the electromagnetic pulse,

the climate catastrophe, the pandemic,

the economic revolution,

whatever it is that makes life
for them unliveable.

So, they're running around
trying to make toys

that somehow fix things,

like underground bunkers,

and rocket ships.

(cheering)

I want to thank every Amazon employee

and every Amazon customer,

because you guys paid for all of this.

DOUGLAS RUSHKOFF: It's always an
ends justifies the means journey,

towards their better place.

And externalising a tremendous
amount of horror

onto whoever isn't on board
their particular thesis.

GHOST: Could this world and
my life have been different

if I'd have done something,
stood up, fought back?

What difference could I make on my own?

(electronic whirring, static crackling)

(trunks snapping)

(dramatic music)

(flames crackling)

We're running faster and faster
through the woods,

increasingly blind, with less
steering and control.

Things are going faster
and faster and faster.

We no longer have a grip on time itself.

There are geological natural changes,

there are social changes
and there are technological changes,

and I think mostly we don't feel
that we're in the driving seat.

We feel that these forces are driving us.

(car rumbling)

Oh my God, oh my God.

Oh my God, oh my God.

Oh my God.

My God.

My God, please stop, please! Oh my God.

Oh my God! Please, please!

Please get me out of here. Please.

Please.

Oh. Oh.

(wind howling) Oh my God.

(rumbling)

(sombre music)

We have known for quite some time

that climate change acts
as a threat multiplier

for all dimensions of society,

and now we have our world on fire.

We're losing lives. We've got
infrastructure buckling.

We should be accelerating into
the energy transition now.

(woman shouting)

We are truly in a climate emergency.

It's here and now, it's not in the future.

(fire crackling)

We have faced a lot of bad stuff
in the past,

wars and famines and genocides,

but this is bigger than any of that.

If we allow dictators,

billionaires and private
corporations much more power,

they will allow the planetary
scale trashing of ecosystems.

And we will see the collapse of
almost all life on earth.

Our duty, as people who care
about other people,

is to oppose those who don't
care about anyone

except themselves.

Because if we do nothing,
we face mass extinction.

GHOST: This is it.

They've come for me.

It's my turn.

AUTOMATED VOICE: Name?

Where were you born?

Where in New San Francisco
have you visited?

Names of relatives and associates?

(electronic beeping)

What groups or organisations
do you connect with?

What is two plus two?

Which books have you read?

Have you ever participated in a protest?

(sombre music)

Do you pray?

Would you like to self-confess
your crimes?

(gunshot) (crowds shouting)

I really feel like we're already living

in a science fiction world,

and in this world, individual will is gone.

That's the reality we're already living in.

(high tempo music)

(shouting)

(sticks beating)

This year, 72 percent of the world

is under authoritarian rule.

They crush democratic
institutions from within.

They don't stay in their countries.

They then ally globally,

and that's where we begin to see
the power shifts.

Time is ticking.

If we do not act when we can,
we will lose free will.

That's the tipping point.

Are we going to fall off the cliff?

Will democracy survive, will fascism win?

(dramatic music)
