Watching the watchers of the watched

The drawing I'm sharing today is inspired by the @hardfork-series latest post CFS: Exposing the OverWatchers, and specifically the role of the OverWatchers.

“OverWatcher” is human surveiller. Also used for face-to-face interrogators
@hardfork-series

I imagined a dystopian future where every movement and interaction was monitored, it didn't take much imagination. How do we know who are the watchers? The days are filled with feelings of paranoia about who is listening and recordings our moves. We are always on the lookout. We start watching for the watchers as they watch the watched. Are we the watched, or are we becoming the watchers?

I love the color palette and the emotionless countenances, very cool. "We start watching for the watchers as they watch the watched." As we listen to the twisted words and reasonings of the demagogues we become pawns in the game of groupthink and conformity... of control.

Great description of the work and ideas @clumsysilverdad
