<h3>What is Cyberpunk?</h3> <p>Cyberpunk is a <strong>science-fiction</strong> sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.</p> <h3>Cyberpunk characteristics include:</h3> <ul> <li>Dystopian city setting where mega-corporations rule</li> <li>Full integration of technology into society, featuring cybernetic implants</li> <li>Outsider protagonists (punks) who often are very familiar with the technology around them</li> <li>Hard boiled detective and film noir vibes and influence</li> <li>Themes dabbling in trans-humanism, existentialism, and what it means to be human.</li> </ul> <h3>Prefixes for posts</h3> <ul> <li>[AI Art]</li> <li>[Art]</li> <li>[Book]</li> <li>[Game]</li> <li>[Meme]</li> <li>[Movie]</li> <li>[Video]</li> </ul> <p><em>This is a community focused on cyberpunk as a genre of fiction.

<p>A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.</p> <p>Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.</p> <p>Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.</p> <p>We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose “defence force”'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.</p>
