Watched the first episode of #Pluribus last night, knowing nothing about it other than people have said it is good. Enjoyed the first episode. I'll watch the next one this evening. It does have a Rick & Morty feel to it, as that show tackled a similar subject.

Larry Ellison, the new richest man in the world, owns 98% of Lānaʻi (Hawaii’s 6th-largest island). A provision in his rental agreement stipulates that anyone who loses a job with his company may also be evicted from their home, and many people both work for and rent from him.
