In 'Severance', Lumon Industries exemplifies morally bankrupt corporate practices in a dystopian setting, utilizing the Severance procedure to detach employees from their real selves to enhance productivity. The show critiques this model, depicting the innies as pure versions of their outies free from the burdens of external pressures like grief or duty. The innies, however, exist solely because of this dehumanizing process, presenting a troubling ethical dilemma around consent and identity, with viewers facing the stark contrast between authentic living and corporate exploitation.
Severance presents a chilling view of a corporation that exploits individuals by splitting their minds, forcing them into roles where their deeper selves are suppressed, raising moral complexities.
Lumon Industries, with its sinister practices and cult-like origins, embodies the dehumanizing potential of corporate power, manipulating life and memory under the guise of innovation and balance.
