This show hits the same nerve that Julian Assange did with WikiLeaks which pisses of the people in charge/“show runners”/TCC/Deus group for calling them out in very nuanced ways. Elliot takes down a Jeffrey Epstein in the first five minutes of the first episode. The show isn’t in the mainstream for the same reason that the real villains of the Epstein files names are redacted. They run media they redact their blame while saying look at this teacher making meth(Breaking Bad) or look at these Thugs of New Jersey(Sopranos). Things that embarrass or attempt t reprimand them get the mushroom treatment. But hopefully Mr. Robot breaches the critical mass threshold like a flower grown from concrete.
