Deus Ex was originally released in 2000 but took place in an alternate 2052 where many of the real world conspiracy theories have come true. The plot included references to vaccinations, black helicopters, FEMA, and ECHELON amongst others, some of which have connotations to real-life events.
Spector said, “Interestingly, I’m not sure I’d make Deus Ex today. The conspiracy theories we wrote about are now part of the real world. I don’t want to support that.”
Earlier, Spector had commented on how he was “constantly amazed at how accurate our view of the world ended up being. Frankly it freaks me out a bit.”

Ah, yes, conspiracies like that a group of terrorists would destroy the World Trade Center.
Conspiracy theories like massive surveillance of online data.
Conspiracy theories like a disease made made in a lab being used as a smokescreen for giving sweeping powers to certain branches of government.
Conspiracy theories like people paying more tax than corporations.
Conspiracy theories like Europe's distinct cultures being systematically erased through immigration that nobody voted for.
Conspiracy theories like think tanks of bankers billionaires puppeteering governments.
'Conspiracy theories'.
Why contain it?
Let it spill over into the schools and the churches.
In the end, they'll thank us for saving them.
S'cool!
