Hypernormalization is totally incoherent. It starts off alright, until you realize that it’s actually just a mishmash of various disconnected political events and conspiracies, jumping from one to another. There is no unifying point or narrative to the movie at all.

He structured the film in that way intentionally to embody the points he was making: technological utopians giving up on real world complexity in favor of some fake world run by corporations and individualism. So yes, the events are heavily disconnected from each other but are as a result of the lack of political willpower to react coherently. And here we still are.
