Alright, something I love about Project Moon's City is that in most of the different districts the Wing in charge literally attempts to control everything to the point of controlling culture, K corp keeps up their clean and corporate look that is distinctly modern though in a sort of off and too clean way, N corp is famous for it's alabaster cities, U corp of course has their cities that seemed to be formed by the Unification singularity from a bunch of different floating stuff, but T corp takes the cake. T corp is literally using their singularity to control how everything looks keeping everything in greyscale and charging people if they want something else. It's not just a literal show of their control over the city, but of the pollution that they inflict on the city through their profit seeking actions. This goes even further with them controlling how many hours people have in a day with insincere platitudes about how humane they are for allowing people four hour days even when the time that they grant isn't enough for people to find fulfillment in, and is litteraly cutting into their profits over time because the workers do less. But to them the control it offers is still worth it. From there people are then able to use money in order to express themself through color or by having more time to do whatever. It's a perfect way of showing how the corporation attempts to control everything, and also how it corrupts society through it's efforts framing the 'culture' that they create not just as something that kind of bows to the corporation but as something that is predatory both in how it bows to the corporation, but also for many people buying into it simply makes them look like a target. But it still offers an alternative in the Yurodivye. The Yurodivye aren't wearing the silvery grey that the Yurodivye of the other districts that we've seen wear, but they still look like Yurodivye. Because of their choice of patterns and designs that make them both look not like something corporate but also like the Yurodivye in a way that is uniquely T corp repurposing the fashion of the area in a form that makes them both look like members of District 21 but not in a way that makes them look T-corp. They are litteraly rejecting corporate culture and creating their own in the area. And that is in itself still revolutionary against the system.
