Future Shock
The "Future Shock" event in Stellaris — flavor, choices, and how to trigger it with the event console command.
Future Shock

The government has deployed its vast resources to augment the population efficiently. Sanctioned augmentation centers have been installing implants day and night, and people have been instructed on proper usage and maintenance practices. The question is whether the actual value of implants should be focused on enhancing our already impressive leadership or as a means to entertain and distract those who work under them. Having the highest quality implants available to our dynasty could allow our leadership to preserve knowledge between generations, providing immeasurable stability. Or, the empire can elevate the capital and entertain with cybernetically enhanced athletes participating in state-of-the-art bloodsport events.
