Get an emulator and play Shadowrun for Sega Genesis.
Great recommendations!
I'm going to have to try this!
Have you played Disco Elysium? The game deals with similar issues self-expression, identify, politics, and social problems. That being said, If you've not played Disco Elysium, it's worth a try. I can't recommend it enough. One of the most memorable games I've played in years.
What essay did you read if you don't mind my asking?
I'd recommend maybe checking out some post-industrial bands like Skinny Puppy or Front Line Assembly. Might be the vibe you're looking for.
Here are a couple of examples: Skiny Puppy - "Testure" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLm9mhh7gvg
Front Line Assembly - "Mindphaser" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWjBPIbJMzY
Old guy here. I am a long time punk-rocker, tech enthusiast, and generally ideologically anti-authoritarian & anti-capitalist.
By far the most punk (cyber and otherwise) thing I have done in my life is become a public school teacher working in a low-income urban school district.
