It's wild to think that there are people who engage with cyberpunk as a genre, completely oblivious to the fact that it's a criticism of capitalism and fascism. Like, bud, they're not even subtle about it. The source of everyone's problems in those settings is the overwhelming weight of omnipresent megacorps and the militant forces they use to enforce their will.
It's like hearing about The Boy Who Cried Wolf and coming away thinking the wolf is the protagonist.
