Hate to break it to you sheeple, but capitalism is bad, you guys. Heh, not like you'll do anything about it, you'll just keep buying things you don't need while staring at the television like good sheep.

In reality you're just going to die, and all your precious things you spent money on will be all for nothing. Because you're dead.

All that stuff they taught you in history class? Well I don't want to say they lied to you, but they sure didn't tell you how it really happened.

Once upon a time, things used to be real. Now they're fake, all made out of plastic imported from china. You could probably say the same of yourself.

It's like this in underworld too tbqh. The whole nuke sequence at the end is this really boring hamfisted "capitalism is bad, mmkay?"
Maybe Libra is better but I'm just not interested enough in Delillo anymore to see for myself.

It's actually about hyperreality, cleverly using death as a motif to explore this.
