We need to talk about Æon Flux.
I see a lot of people talking about fighting fascism or discussing #anarchy but no one seems to remember the icon that was Aeon.
I remember watching this episode "Thanatophobia" (S03E03) back in 1995 and this opening scene punched me in the face the same way 30 years later.
If you've not watched ÆonFlux I recommend it. I still hum this to myself all these years later.
It's anarcho-biopunk-core with #CyberPunk elements and much more.

The stories and characters are nuanced, have extreme depth and surprising relevancy to our world 30 years later. It's required multiple viewings over decades to grasp it all and apply it to the context of the present.
It's worthy of a complete viewing every ten years.
