They didn't even let him die. Imagine your company selling you to a corporation and doing that to you without anyone's consent.

Everyone (his wife, his partner Lewis, the police) thought Murphy was dead.
The orporation lied to everyone and used Murphy's body without anyone's consent.

Terminator 2 is a movie about how you should always listen to your mother.

@Marxism no Jutsu @marxismnojutsu.bsky.social
yes.
and then he's also a privatized cop fighting "crime" which lowers the property value so capitalists can scoop it up for a song, and then develop it into something profitable, instead of, you know, a place where people live.
yes, the movie is rife with "subtext" ;)

Robocop outtakes where he's submitting an overtime claim and arguing with the Sgt about not getting time off.

No doubt the pension went to OP as he was marked on the system as dead.

If it costs less and increases our (billionaires) profit margin, do it. It’s the merican dream to make rich people richer!

they will reboot this, and Robocop will do private security for amazon at a warehouse, and then the plot you describe will make even more sense.
