Sibylle Berg’s “It can only get better” at the Berliner Ensemble. – Culture

The end of the world was also more exciting. Sibylle Berg, the literary expert on hardcore capitalist dystopias on the edge of the apocalypse, has dumped out her note box. From the remaining notes about the last days of consumer degenerate humanity, a small text was created in which AI and police state say goodnight to each other. As always with Sibylle Berg, it’s pretty funny, clever and buoyed by refreshing hatred: If anyone deserves a season in hell, it’s the wealth-neglected, empathy-free first-person shooters from the creative and marketing precariat, who are quite rightly Ms. Berg’s all contempt applies.
