I think we're already seeing some bits of the safety valve that would preclude Atwood's vision from coming to be in state-based actions such as California Sanctuary Law SB54. I don't think Atwood's vision adequately factors in how individual states would respond.

Something similar to what is shown in The Look of Silence in Netflix, about the far-right military coup that killed 1 million "communists" civilians in one year in order to enslave farm labor for the Globalist rubber industry.

At least the Capitalism of the non-intellectuals means cheap wheels for your cars.
