Carl Trueman offers insight here into the dystopian view of life that is independent of any morality.

In short, medical professionals—those trained to save lives but not to explain why a particular life is worth saving—had become the major ethical arbiters of social policy by default. And here it is the same: life and death decisions being made by doctors, and perhaps by accountants, that shape how we think of life and what makes it worthwhile. We live in a technocratic world, divorced from any broader moral framework . . . As long as the technocrats make these decisions, they will be the ones shaping society’s moral imagination. And make no mistake—they will promise heaven but will deliver the very opposite. 

When society throws ethics and moral truth under the bus, the outcome is both predictable and inevitable. Trueman warns “there is a perfect storm brewing that concerns how we assess the value of individual lives.”
