Yes, I think that's an easy central theme to cheer. In addition, generally for dystopian fiction to work, it needs to culminate in an act of rebellion, which this portrays in immensely satisfying fashion.

And yes, we do accept the world the way it presented to us, 99.99 per cent of the time. But sometimes we "wake up" and realise the truth. A good recent example would be the pandemic teaching us that we actually don't need to be in the office five days a week, enduring miserable commutes, and so on, just so rich city landlords can get office rents. That genie isn't going back in the bottle no matter how much corporations try to re-enslave us.
