        Since others have explained what those stories are about, the juxtaposition is about the idea of the Ubermensch being the savior of humanity, namely one where the Ubermensch are capitalists, is a dead concept in a world where we’ve let the capitalists run everything and result is an unmitigated disaster.

        Turns out, they just want money and power. That’s it, they can’t save us. Why is this movie venerating them?
