I mean, we kinda are already living in a cyberpunk dystopia. Multinational corporations committing atrocities without repercussions. Surveillance permeating throughout all aspects of our lives. Ever more widening gap between rich and poor. Crazy technological advancements, including prosthetics or even enhancements enthusiasts implant into themselves.

And if you need the neon just move to Tokyo.

Do people not get this? Yeah, cyberpunk is now. It's a criticism of now, it's showing us our future
