As far as I can tell its showing us what our world is like, or going to end up like.
The poor/regular people think the only ticket to happiness is money and fame.
Before the ending with the tubes and stuff I thought the guy would just be killed and a fake would be put into the media. An effective way of giving the lowest of society hope that they can escape their horrible lives, thus preventing rebellion, while still keeping most of them stuck as they are.
That might be partly true as there was a fake of him created and while he didn't die he was kept as some sort of fuel source. That's the bit that confused me.
Was their entire society just a bunch of fakes stuck in an eternal loop using the defenceless as a means of energy and to keep the world stuck as it is? Securing their dominance for eternity?
Or maybe something else?
My thoughts get weird when I'm tired

The Christian religion is a very powerful and convincing mistake, that's all.
