What is Cyberpunk?
Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.
Cyberpunk characteristics include:
- Dystopian city setting where mega-corporations rule
- Full integration of technology into society, featuring cybernetic implants
- Outsider protagonists (punks) who often are very familiar with the technology around them
- Hard boiled detective and film noir vibes and influence
- Themes dabbling in trans-humanism, existentialism, and what it means to be human.

It's prolly best to not repost any AI images to any communities that are not specifically about that. At least that's my understanding - that's why I don't post this stuff anywhere else. I just try to contribute something to Lemmy besides screenshots of other social media sites or old memes that I saved from reddit or elsewhere. I don't have too much to offer but some cleaned up AI Images tho. This doesn't seem to meet the standard for non-AI-communities. So I don't even bother anymore. Where should the content be coming from, you might ask. Well, I dunno. I guess that all the downvoting people surely must know the answer to that.
