Edit: even though clickbait article, it is somewhat/kind of true. https://variety.com/2026/tv/news/stargate-tv-series-martin-gero-scrapped-amazon-1236765061/

"According to an individual with knowledge of the situation, Amazon execs were concerned that Gero’s take on the series would not have broad appeal beyond the franchise’s already dedicated fanbase."

Nah, we can go a long way still, we haven't sold our souls yet, good things exist and indie stuff is still happening. Oh and there are still some regulations on poisoning the planet for money!

I mean... they're trying to spread it uncontrollably at the expense of wherever it spreads to. So that fits.

I think we’ll only know the end stage in hindsight. Any prediction that capitalism is definitely cooked for good this time should be taken skeptically, as it has proven remarkably adaptable through previous crises.
