    Catchy marketing name (Wayforward Machine). But alas, it isn't THE way forward in any shape of form (as way I see it).

    That would be like saying the democratic party IS democracy.

    Or when news sites speak of 'fake news' while foregoing articles listing the times they themselves put out fake news.

    I found it to be some sort of dark humor, believe me some folks out there has no idea what the ministry of truth from 1984 is about, let alone 1984 novel, big brother, etc.. and a dark humor exist to expose some taboos in society in form of comedy, joke or even edgy humor in this case, some people even get "hooked" by it and go further into real research.

    It is not harmful, it somehow shows a bit where we as society are heading to.

    Yeah, I get that. Kind of like how George Carlin and other comedians highlight the nuttiness.

    Art, often times, can play the role of the proverbial canary in the coal mine.
