It's actually a pretty good read.

Would you say it sent a good message

I thought so. The alt-righters will hate it. The described dystopia is pretty much what the left says will happen in a conservative led future.

How's the popculture references?

Most are throwaways. But there's a few really good ones

Can your provide some context for that cringy excerpt posted in the movie thread?

That was intentionally cringy. The narrator was going to an extreme to show how he had no life outside the internet and the egg hunt.
