An embarrassing neoliberal shoehorn into a great story by one of the greatest science fiction authors who ever lived. The entertainment value is almost entirely based on exploitation and melodrama, which ends up ruining the amount of work put into the beautiful settings and fun little details like the Atlantropa project.
I also find it odd that Amazon is bankrolling shows like this or The Boys, considering it's a company that in many ways identifies with the antagonists of both shows.
