“The first RoboCop, [Paul] Verhoeven’s film, it already had a great theme in it,” said Padilha, “which is the connection between the automation of violence and fascism. And you can think about this connection in several ways. One way to think about it is to consider Vietnam; America pulled out of Vietnam because there were movements at home due to the fact that soldiers were dying. If you take away the soldiers and put robots there, what happens? The same goes for Iraq.

Overseas, their drones have been used by the military for years, but have been forbidden for law enforcement in America. Now OmniCorp wants to bring their controversial technology to the home front, and they see a golden opportunity to do it. When Alex Murphy (Joel Kinnaman) – a loving husband, father and good cop doing his best to stem the tide of crime and corruption in Detroit – is critically injured, OmniCorp sees their chance to build a part-man, part-robot police officer. OmniCorp envisions a RoboCop in every city and even more billions for their shareholders, but they never counted on one thing: there is still a man inside the machine.

In law enforcement, if you replace the soldier with a machine you take away the possibility of the soldier or the policeman not doing something that the state asks of him if they think it’s inadequate to do it. A machine doesn’t have that critical perspective. So, if you think about the first movie, you have Alex Murphy fighting against the directives inside his head. So that character embodies this idea that you have to dehumanize the perpetrators of violence in order to have fascism.
