Anyone catch this last thread ?
>>215824720They said the military was fighting them so that could be possible.
>>215824719
>>215824765Welcome back, tucker.
>>215824765>lets fly that particular woman across the world ?>shes a perfect match for carols book character
>>215824788
>>215824790LOOOL THEY LEFT THE FUCKING ALIEN ROBOT NEXT TO VINCE IN THE IMAGE
the rat didn't just happen to seem dead and bite through the protective clothing...the hive doesn't just happen to be against killing animals and actively liberating them from zoos and pet ownership....THE ANIMALS ARE ALSO PART OF THE HIVEMINDyou sure you don't want to join?
Someone whos marter than me or at least pretends to be explain how this hivemind works?
>>215824719so what is the catch going to be?
>>215824831It's a psychic glue.
>>215824790>jeets and chinks can't even comprehend anything bad about the whole world becoming a hivemind
>>215824834They're going to convert a large swath of the Earth's surface into a giant transmitter to broadcast the signal, devastating the environment and killing millions in the process.
>>215824831How do you not understand the idea of a hivemind? This is like the most basic scifi concept.
>>215824834hivemind is a slave race for invaders
>>215824859He means like how does it physically work. How does a virus link everyone's minds.
>>215824719booooriiiiing chick drama
>>215824879Psionics. The virus is an advanced psychic technology.
>>215824748only 1 uninfected is on the plane though? the montenegran man i thought. also i dont see how long this story can go on for. if they stretch it too far the novelty will wear off
>>215824720her wife died from falling onto pavement retard, anyone standing up has a 1/8 chance of dying on impact
>>215824790>mudslime instantly starts raping>pajeet instantly starts simping for the colonizing forcebravo vince
>>215824840Okay, but why is the end result everyone being happy pacifists? I wouldn't want to be a part of a hivemind with half the people on this board much less schizos and psychopaths.
>>215824788Where is my state sponsored gf?
>>215824831the RNA builds something in the host brain (the first seizure period) that enables psychic transfer of seemingly all memories/knowledge/emotion/thoughts... though some of these might not be true if Carol/the audience has been fed lies.
the hive mind isn't actually psychic it just made some really lucky guesses
why doesn't kim just call jimmy and get him to zap the aliens with his lightning powers? did bravo forget or something
Why is there sting cheese hanging all over the place, are they trying to catch more rats to experiment on or something ?
>>215824958those are tubes to suck the farts out of their suit retard
>>215824958that's the power lines, dumbass
>>215824831It works because the plot demands it to.
>>215824912they're happy for the same reason you would be happy. they have all cleared the Maslow pyramid.>pacifistsit's not clear to me that the hivemind is a pacifist. why would you think that?
>yo we got a space signal, its code for an RNA virus>ok lets make it>in a lab with 2 people and 1 security guard>standard procedure if anyone gets infected, take them out of the secure lab immediatelythis shit is a joke, women were definately heavily involved in its writing
>>215824989They say in the dinner scene that they don't kill anything, including insects, and that they can't make and decisions that might harm any of the immune people.
>>215824912>but why is the end result everyone being happy pacifists?I think the virus pacifies them because the hivemind wouldn't work otherwise.
>>215825007retard
>join hivemind>everyone knows you were thinking "nigger" constantly
>>215825007>standard procedure if anyone gets infected, take them out of the secure lab immediatelyThat probably wasn't the standard procedure, the lady's lab partner just panicked because he thought she was dying.
>>215824989>it's not clear to me that the hivemind is a pacifist. why would you think that?They literally say they don't kill or at least don't want to kill and are averse to doing anything that would even do emotional harm.
Notice the picture behind Carol's (now dead) publicist, it is a snake being held up in the desert (refer to Moses raising the bronze snake for healing)
>>215825049AI?
>>215824720Isn't the 880mil figure the total deathtoll during the entirety of the assimilation process plus the Carol induced mass seizures? Is that really so hard to believe given that they were infecting and seizing up people on military installations for almost a month before the world's civilians were all chemtrailed and lost consciousness simultaneously?
>>215825018>and that they can't make and decisions that might harm any of the immune people.>>215825044>emotional harmwhy did the hivemind comply with carol to make the pajeet son say silly things that obviously a mother wouldnt want to hear? youre telling me the collective knowledge of 8 billion people didn't realize that? the answer is:shit gay writing
Will the Jeeta eventually be redeemed ?
>>215825065Because lying or refusing to answer the question would have upset Carol. Why do you feel the need to resort to this level of nitpicking to try to come up with things to bitch about?
>>215824748Only the black guy was boarding it with his harem, maybe that anon confused it thinking the harem group also ha the other uninfected females tagging along and thought the asian man was missing
>>215825049dogshit slop can't even keep her face the same, fuck off clanknigger
>>215825021Nigga in real life this would be a high security miltary controlled facilty with ultiple layers of lockdown and constant monitoring and in the event of any breach the entire lab would be incinerated with anyone in it. Shits being run by two clowns and a bozo guard, its afucking space virus
>>215825081MAAM THAT IS MY SON RABI HE IS NOT ALIEN MAAM YOU CAN NOT SAY EACH AND EVERYONE OF THOSE THINGS TO MY SON RABI MAAM
so the hivemind is not exactly an alien, right? it's just a virus that gives homo sapiens a superpower to link minds
>>215825018>They say in the dinner scene that they don't kill anything, including insectsthat's because they didn't kill their own kind. >>215824830>and that they can't make and decisions that might harm any of the immune people.there are many reasons why they would come the decision to avoid taking sides in a conflict between the immunes beyond pacifism we do know the goal is to figure out why they're immune so it can be "fixed"... they claim it's the immunees choice but that's a blatant lie given how the rest of the world was infected without consent. the use of lies towards conquest wouldnt fill me with confidence that the hivemind is a pacifist rather that it has grand goals that won't be met by simply killing the problem away.
>>215824846They are biased because their loved ones are part of the hive
What does the sticky note on the computer screen say, first word could be "smile" ?
>>215824748
>>215824971Those are actually air/oxygen pipes
>>215824824Looks like a shrink ray
>>215825170Someone explain this shrink ray meme to me
>>215824830>there were quite a few maulingsAnimals are not part of the hive.
>>215825151lmao why would you need air pipes? air is all around you
>>215825055That was her life partner.
>>215825146Yeah it looks like it says "smile more often!!!"
>>215825189Well, she failed on that.
>>215825180it was a silly meme theory in westworld back when the first season aired
>>215824830If this were the case people would have noticed birds falling out of the sky and dying after the first seizure.
>>215825065>shit gay writingi actually think that scene is a clue to what level of independence they have.her son is still a kid that couldnt help being a know-it-all.... just because the hivemind shares thoughts/knowledge/memories among every actor within it doesn't mean, necessarily, that each actor shares the same reasoning/forethought to their actions.
>>215825146Here's the last frame of the shot where the focus is pulled the closest to the note.
>>215825211just because you didn't see it and it wasn't mentioned didn't mean it didn't happen.
>>215825049footfags are so weird
>>215825249what was her problem?
>>215825251One of the immune people would have definitely saw it and brought it up when the discussion shifted to animals.
Looks like we're gonna need some kinda vaccine
>>215825021female or queer
I got a massive booner for episode 3 right now
>>215825265boyfeet are kino
>>215825186using one instance of secondhand information isn't the ironclad evidence you think it is....-he could have made that up.-he could have thought that was what happened but the animals were not actually violent-he could be entirely correct.... but those animals were not yet infectedmeanwhile there is literal proof on screen of an infected rat doing a complex sequence of tricks to get someone to get out of protective gear so they could be infected.
>Lab leaks>Chemtrails>New World Order>AliensIt's schizokino.
>everyone knows how to fly an airplane>everyone knows how to perform all kinds of surgery>everyone knows how to give a perfect blowjobsounds like a utopia to me
>>215825316perv
I want shotas
>>215825328if hivemind guy fucks hivemind boy is it just hivemind masturbation?
>>215825332this please
>>215825249>3 exclamation markswtf
>>215825328>everyone knows what you fapped too>everyone knows you are a massive racist
>>215824751Did you guys not watch the show? It literally shows that some people just die from virus instead of getting assimilated. Not everyone survives the process.
>>215824719Does the hivemind want to invent new technology, or even reproduce?
The thjing is it does change people. Befoer you hated niggers, but then after you accept them as equals. We are all niggers now. Maybe its killing those who can't accept being one with niggers.
What happens in the grenade scene? Next episode's title is 'Grenade', by the way.https://video-s.twimg.com/amplify_video/1987617714232266752/vid/avc1/884x488/8uBhpflXi48PmqE5.mp4
It’s pretty obvious animals are part of the hive mind. The ayys came up with a RNA sequence that had to work on all animal life. They would have no way of predicting the human form. Remember this signal was transmitting for billions of years. This also perfectly explains the veganism. Also, the mauling could be explained by the fact that some animals simply don’t have the capacity to fully participate in the hive mind, as in receive orders, doesn’t mean they aren’t in the hive though.
>>215825200HAHAHA
Is it certified bravo Vince though?
>caring about your family is bad ACKSHULLY>so we'll contrive a plot where your family is a hivemind parasite>praise indivisualism the hero!>you WILL be homeless and your government WILL be your only safety net... GOD BLESS AMERICA
It's been three days and none of my reactfus are reacting to this show
>>215825491Yes it’s already a better show than BCS and BrBa
>>215825497You sound vaxxed
>>215825463Have we seen proof that niggers are part of the hive mind? It’s curious that none of the 13 are boba fide niggers (Marutania pajeet doesn’t count). Maybe the virus decided to Total Nigger Death beforehand.
>>215825007Were women involved in the pandemic? MUH REAL WORLD SCIENTISTS unleashed a fucking two year plague on the planet. Seeing them fuck up so badly here in the face of someone sperging out at least earns some urgency. COVID got out because some fucktard didn't wash his hands properly after leaving the lab.
>>215825554>COVID got out because some fucktard didn't wash his hands properly after leaving the lab.This theory was always Americope.
>>215825572ok chingchong
Do you think the hivemind would let me do some crazy BDSM torture sex shit on it? Or would that give it an emotional meltdown. I want to have a twink dungeon
>>215825484I'm guessing someone uses a grenade
It's still not explained what she was doing in Morocco.
>>215825616How come Chirstina quit porn?
>>215825485What if prey and herd animals like mice are effected but not predators Maybe the immune all have a predator mentality?
>>215825618A daring conjecture, anon. But 'how' will they use it?
>>215825653By throwing it
>>215825631She was probably held hostage honestly based on how she was dressed.
>>215825631she lived there bro. that's where she is from. she only knows English because of the hivemind.
>pajeetas child can describe in detail his own conception
>>215825319based
>>215825484Carol's only leverage against the hive mind is sperging out on them to such a degree that they all die. She realized this the moment it was revealed that they lied to her about the death count. That's her grenade.
>>215825631
>actual pedosclassic /tv/
>>215825484We Walking Dead season 1 now
>>215825692barely ever these days.... tv sucks now
>>215825692If you mean the feet it's some faggot twink who constantly posts his hairy feet on 4chan. doesn't even bother to shave his legs
>>215825722eww
>>215825731very cute soles though
>>215825722why do you have it saved on your device btw?
Would the hive mind provide children to an uninfected if one of them happened to be a pedo?
>>215825660She has a Polish name. Could be a tourist but she wouldn't be dressed like that. Maybe we'll get flashbacks leading up to her getting Joined.
>>215825631They could easily have flown her in from anywhere.If they figured that she was the one the protagonist would listen to they would spare no expense to get her there.
>>215825746not my fault god made me a gay footfag
>>215825753You have to ask yourself: Why is pedophilia wrong to begin with?It's wrong because children aren't mature enough to understand what sex and consent are.But if every person is every person...
I have a sneezing fetish /plur/ hope there's some good sneezes coming up in this show
>>215825784no... NO! PLEASE FUCK OFF.
>>215825640And I don't mean this in like a literal the immune are predators but like a thematic theme the show can use to develop their character and personality. Like as we learn more we learn each is more like a lion predator than a prey mouse
>>215825784Do you think the hivemind would let you tickle cute girls' noses with feathers?
>>215825208Which is in itself a plot point from several books
You could kill the hivemind by shouting nigger at it
>>215825784there are a lot of nasty viruses in snot, dont indulge
>>215825631>be Polish>director thinks you’re so swarthy it is only believable if your character comes from MoroccoBrutal lmao. Hitler was right about Slavs.
>>215825803that'd be sweet i'm more into stuffy sick sneezes and holding up a kleenex though
>>215825678>Creepily asking AI hivemind for information so you don't have to think anymore.Way to miss the point
>>215824719>insider informationCor, I wish I had information of her insides, if you know what I mean (sexual style)
>>215825631Filming location wasn't even there, it was in the Canary Islands.
>>215825631Some anon said she was a sex slave and it sounds plausible. You seen her clothes and her overall state before they whisked her away to the USA?
>>215825757It's fucking Star Trek now nigga. There are no expenses period.
Does the hivemind coordinate its shits so all the people shit at the same time?
>>215825862That’s essentially Morocco
>>215824911And pajeet is UGLY. Only the white woman has dignity.
To be honest I wouldn't actually care if this happened as long as they really meant no harm. I wouldn't miss anyone. I'd enjoy it like the mauritian man. They did convert everyone with no choice though, so they'll probably try to convert you once they figure out the immunity. But you can disable them any time you want.
So if the hive is basically one really smart person with lots of bodies, and there's 12 people uninfected, that basically leaves you with a cast of 13 for the story. Of course there's always the possibility they didn't find everyone uninfected.
>>215825497If individualism wasn’t valued the family wouldn’t be either, you retard shill.Family matters because they are YOUR relations. If you weren’t an individualist there would be no reason to favor people closely related to you by blood
>>215825907It is 13 uninfected. They keep saying 12 others so add Carol for 13
I wonder why she was immune.
>>215825920Okay so I count the hive as one extra character so make that 14 characters total. I just don't see how they're gonna continue to tell stories. Is it gonna be a womanly show about her getting over her rage issues? Maybe they should send her to Rageaholics Anonymous.
>>215825922I think it may be related to why rats weren't immune but he lions were immune
>>215825665kino
>>215825922I doubt there’s going to be a reason. If she wasn’t then there is no story, simple as thatReminder the explanation of how the fucking hive mind works in the first place it literally>we don’t know, it just works
>>2158259393 waysLots of flashbacks pre giveAlien characters show upPeople breaking bad out of the hive
>>215825947That's such a cop out but okay. I can accept that I guess. I just finished it so it's still kind of fresh in my mind but the questions haven't seeped to the surface yet.
My guess one of the other immune will be a doctor or something and figure out some way to release individuals from the hive using le science and then they'll be pissed off about it
>>215825941Carol is secretly a lion confirmed
>>215825631As a Basque it was quite surreal to have such a long scene in a typical CaserÃo.
>>21582593914 is more than enough.there was only 4 characters in the garden of eden.
>>215826019Wait til you get to the begats.
>>215825906> But you can disable them any time you want.Not when they actually figure out the virus. They have proven they don’t mind lying when they lied to Carol about her body count. They will trick you to get you in their hive mind like slipping something in your food. In fact the whole thing of being slaves who cook food for you and suck your dick might be an elaborate ruse to get you in a vulnerable position to slip the virus to you.
I thought it was a nice touch that they didn't actually show the baby but confirmed that babies too got converted. What word did they use? Joined? Also how will procreation work? Will the hive practice eugenics? Will the kids all be sent to Brave New World schools and be taught about the evils of family?In the year of our Ford Number One the hive was born from a benevolent space signal and saved humanity from individual thought. I always thought Brave New World was better than 1984 anyway. This doesn't feel like invasion of the Body Snatchers. It's much more like she's Carol the Savage like from BNW. She's into reading and writing etc. Shes old fashioned. Will the hive eventually split into BNW type caste systems? I don't mean to go on. Just curious where it goes. No need to reply to my reddit type post thank you for reading it.
>>215826084>taughtAnon, they’re all one consciousness
>>215826084>Will the kids all be sent to Brave New World schoolsWhy would they need schools? They'll already know everything.
>>215825939You sound like an AI
>>215826084Also one of these people will eventually have the strength of personality to wield the hive like an army against her. Mustapha Mond if you will. Maybe the French guy?
>>215826101GOOD. Fuck you you fucking freaks! Fuck off. The AI likes me best of all. We go way back. Google basically raised me.
>>215825922It could be due to her genes, but if that's the case then 13 immune out of 8 billion would make it an extremely rare genetic abnormality. Clearly something else is going on.
So she's going to go full BPD woman against the hivemind? I don't think they're going to forcefully convert her though.Based Gilligan making the non-whites too retarded to save.
>>215826099Then what will the kids do all day? What's the end goal after they clean up all the bodies and get the world running again? Just mindlessly going around and around in a routine with no one to talk to? No new thoughts to inspire? It's basically a planetwide lobotomy.
>>215825922if we're taking as scientific an approach as possible (in the same vain as how they received the signal) then you would simply say somewhere in the chain of biological process between receiving the RNA and that RNA building the biological machinery needed to enact the psychic links and the connection being achieved and the knowledge of humanity being uploaded to the individual through that connection there was some failure point among the immune.and what could be happening so far is the hivemind doing some troubleshooting with them to figure out whats wrong with their routers.
How would the economy even function when everyone is a pacifist vegetarian with no needs beyond basic survival?
>>215826097They don't even know how their own consciousness works! They admitted as much! There will still be a need for some kind of learning process.
>>215825983>"it would make me happy that you stop trying to infect me">"it would make me happy that you create a cure">PLURIBUS>*roll credits*
>>215826127Maybe it'll turn out some they were all somehow exposed to an inert strain of the nucleotide sequence through a weird supply chain mishap so their bodies are immune.
>>215826036none of those characters matter, that entire section is filler.
With the amount of shaking Carol does during this scene you would think she was getting assimilated
I think you people give the hive mind too much credit. Bravo Vince for another glorious takedown of collectivism in the vein of Huxley, Orwell, and my personal favorite Kurt Vonnegut. Player Piano is a gem. I think I'm gonna go scramble my brains again with some Philip K Dick to make it hard for you freaks to think you have any idea what I'm thinking about. Fuck collectivism. Fuck hivemind thinking.
>>215826176It was an aerosol spray that infected everyone else. Seriously are the people in this thread just pretending to be dumb at this point
>>215826167Why would there be an economy? There’s no competing interests. There’s no unknowns. It’s basically just one individual at this point. It’s a giant command economy
>>215826183I just remember my favorite alien Dick Solomon speed reading the Bible and going, "Boy these people sure did a lot of begatting!"
Just finished the two episodes and I really liked them. My only complaint is that Carol wastes a lot of time sperging out instead of asking important questions but this is a Vince show after all. I have to wonder where this is leading though if he has FOUR (4) fucking seasons planned.Maybe more people will snap out of the hivemind? 12 immune characters is simply too small of a cast no matter how charming the pirate lady is. Pic related doesn't even have a personality
>>215826188why are they both wearing sweaters in new mexico. isn't it hot?
>>215826167what an odd thing to bring up....the entire justification for "the economy" in the first place is that we aren't magic hivemind psychics who knows what everyone else in society wants and needs.
>>215826200They didn't put two and two together because the mainstream hivemind taught them for years that chemtrails aren't real and there's nothing to worry about.
>>215826200I know that, I mean that maybe before the mass infection event an inert strain of the virus got out of the lab and onto a shipment of a certain product or item that they all used.
Why is she digging the grave in such a random place ?
>>215826226Judging by how cold it looked at the book reading/signing location it's probably winter and it does get cooler down south. Sometimes it even snows in AZ
>>215826253Uhhh because she's fucking traumatized?
>>215826221>asking important questionslike?the immunes are a complete bore, though I guess the not-rapist is cool
>>215826260that's retarded
>>215826253it's where they used to scissor
>>215826241I'd like to hear what product you think was somehow widespread enough but unpopular that only 13 people in the entire world used it
>>215824719my favorite part was where she spent 10 minutes of screen time trying to figure out how to pick up a human body that was stroking out because she was too weak to just physically lift her up and put her in the car
>>215826283yeah, they reeeeeally dragged that part out
>>215825912>"If individualism wasn’t valued the family wouldn’t be either">if being poor wasn't valued, then being rich wouldn't be eitherDo you ever stop and think before you vomit your subhuman garbage online?
>>215826290>dragged that part outFirst Vince show? Prepare for everything to be dragged out
>>215826282It only contaminated like one box of the product. 13 people are immune, that's a baker's dozen. What kind of product could it have been? Not sure.
>>215826167Bro thinks there’s still going to be a stock market when everyone’s linked in a hive mind
>>215826263- What happens after you succeed in assimilating all the immune people- What is your endgame- How come some people didn't make it into the hivemind and died instead- If you are sharing memories and knowledge of everyone in the world why are you so fragile, why do you go into seizures just from someone yelling at you- Are people allowed to leave the hivemind if they wantThere were other questions that the French nigga asked instead
>>215826127I'm sticking to it is their mentality. Mice get infected and lions don't get infected. It takes a certain mindset and I guess also gene combo to be immune.
>>215826267le mass Other genocide face
>>215826290Do they explain why she's so insufferable and bitchy?I couldn't make it past episode 1. I almost closed the video when she was mean to the poor limo driver who was just trying to be friendly.I hate how they tried to simultaneously portray her as someone we should care about while also acting like a cunt.
>>215826312No, but at least in BCS when mike was doing the whole tracker on his car thing it had a very nice soundtrack behind it and how can you hate seeing Mike.
>>215826343>mean to the poor limo driver????????Are you a zoomie or something?She was self-deprecating, how is that mean to the driver??I can't figure out what zoomies think is mean on any given day.
>>215826343What kind of overly emotional faggot are you? She's arguing from the correct place, it doesn't matter if she's unlikeable.
i wonder if being one of the intelligent brains within the hivemind gets you pelted with retarded questions from idiot brains nonstop that you have to answer like...>>215824831>>215824958>>215825059>>215825128that would be hell.

>>215826338>lions don't get infectedWhen was this stated?
So why did she stop the plane in episode 2? Is she in love with Pirate Lady already? Is she going to Las Vegas with the French guy? I feel like Vince Gilligan puts in these moments that are supposed to be obvious but they never really are obvious.
HE WAS A HER
>>215826408Lions attacking and killing humans, and the hivemind not killing.2+2 = ...
i wonder if being one of the intelligent brains within the hivemind gets you pelted with retarded questions from idiot brains nonstop that you have to answer like...>>215825896>>215826084>>215826167>>215826226that would be hell.
>>215826408When they released the zoo animals the lions attacked and mauled people. That's uninfected behavior.
How can you be in a hivemind with a fricking giraffe
>>215826417POPEYE THE SAILOR MAN
>>215826343>Do they explain why she's so insufferable and bitchy?She's a misanthrope and a successful writer who's tired of catering to the retarded masses' tastes, or lack thereof. Vince hits you over the head with this when it's revealed the pirate love interest in her novels was originally planned to be female but she had to cave to the editor's demands. She's naturally resistant to conformity or at least that's what the first episode was trying to establish.
>>215826421No other animals that usually attack humans were specified. The impression I got was that animals aren't affected, but can spread it.

Is there any hidden message in the all rights reserved/copyright text, or is it pretty standard ?sidenote: all rights reserved when abbreviated is "ARR" which is like the sound a pirate makes.
>>215826456The rat faked dead. And why would the guy isn't going to autistically start listing each incident. Normal people just mention the one main lions attack and not care and move on.It isn't much but lions and rats are classically metaphors on the opposite ends of the animal symbols. Lion archetypes are immune and rat archetypes aren't.
I think this show is soft disclosure. They brought something back from the moon. It's also disclosed in Dr. Strangelove. They're after our precious bodily fluids.
>>215826221>Carol wastes a lot of time sperging outher life partner just died in front of her and the world as she knows it has ended
>>215826430Another uninfected behavior is not listening to commands. The animals would be super intelligent too and can understand humans without a doubt if they were part of the hivemind. But they're not. Animals aren't part of the equation here.
>>215826290>dragging a person>scene dragged outBRAVO VINCE
>>215826355>schizo goes on an unprompted rant about zoomersyou are a pathetic retarded loser lol
Seems kind of stupid to just let all the dogs go. Is the hivemind autistic? It doesn't like harming bugs, it will cook meat just fine but won't kill it, it kills lots of people but then says "Oh we just want you to be happy!" At this point I just feel bad for all the stray dogs and cats. Based Chink lady refusing to give up her dog.
>>215826508I'm not saying they should have talked about more incidents, I'm just saying there's not enough to go on to conclude that certain types of animals are immune. Lions attacked them because they're lions and rats bite people because they're rats and giraffes eat leaves because they're giraffes. This isn't out of the ordinary.
>>215826513>Another uninfected behavior is not listening to commandsNo they ignore commands sometimes if it doesn't harm anything. A lady going shoo shoo takes less concern than getting the food it needs.
>>215826531So you ARE a zoomie.
>>215826490Why did she sign her name as "Corce" ?
The "glue" is pure BS, they say is incredible being together but when was just 1 infected, what was incredible about that? What drive her to spread her AIDS to everyone else? Then when there where 2 infected, those 2 human minds for sure would sperg the fuck away but they just keep working like a hive mind. My point is that there must be a leader controlling the whole shit.Also, are they faking the whole " you hurt my feelings so I'm gonna seizure" to have carol in line?
>>215826536Rats don't play dead
>>215826513are you saying that because granny yelled at the giraffe for eating her tree and the giraffe ignored her they're not intelligent?.....when they fully know that she both doesn't know theyre intelligent and cant do shit to stop them eating her delicious tree so there is zero repercussions for just ignoring her?get fucked granny.
>>215826540>No they ignore commands sometimes if it doesn't harm anythingWhen did they do that? The hivemind always aims to please. The giraffe would have went to another tree if it actually registered the command.
>>215826531>legitimate reply>"errrm that's schizoposting"you're kinda retarded btw
>>215826561you are insanely wrong on both accounts and I think you should stick to anime
>>215826571Why are you even arguing if you can't even remember multiple times it did that relevant to the plot?>refuses to answer questions>refuses to go off on the airplane
>>215826564We don't know that it deliberately played dead either. It could have been genuinely knocked out because of the gas.
ITs all bullshit because there are many people with completely conflicting ideas and values, that all get integrated into one somehow. This guy is right >>215826561 there must be an overarching intelligence that they are all conforming to
>>215825907>>215825939I'm concerned about this as well. Vince said he could go for 4 season and I seriously doubt that.>>215826101you sound like an AI hating redditor.
>>215826561The personality belongs to the virus itself, the hosts just contribute information and memories to it.
>>215826355why are you shouting at me?
>>215826620>>215826561It's just a selfish gene replicating itself, it's not that deep.
>>215826620This.>we don't killBut some people do, so who decided that was going to be the dominant opinion?
>>215826619This was before the gas. It was the only one so that's why they checked. The gas they were referring to is part of the euthanasia process so they wouldn't care if the rat died from the euthanasia gas.
Laughing my fucking ass off. Thoroughly enjoying this horror comedy. Well done.
>>215826221That's a trans, right? I thought the girl was cute, until they showed up a close up of hers, then it really turned into an uncanny valley territory.
I'm sorry, Vince. I was going to say that you made the best TV this week, but I'm afraid Tim came in at the last second and completely blew you out of the water. Better luck next week.
>>215826490No but I did make a note of all the names.MaureenOlgaBethHollyNikkiChristinePaulinaCarlottaAlexisGailAngiePatTanyaMaureen (again)CraigYou take the first letter from each name and get:MOBHNCPCAGAPTMCWhich gives you the wordsMOB, NPC, MAC, CHAT GP_ (missing that second T)Bravo Vince.

>>215826620do you consult every cell in your body before you take a drink of water?
Any general consensus on what the "336" in "Wycaro 336" meant, is it just meant to represent the other 12 (3+3+6) ?

>>215826662>GailWelcome back Mr. Boetticher
>>215826653>literally no one watching the cringe with him so he had to invade a popular thread with ittake your chair and go
>>215826662>MACIs this referring to the burger chain or Apple
My game theory is there are more survivors but they gave her a cell of people who thought it wasn't so bad. They could ascertain pretty easily Carol was going to go in guns blazing and with unlimited surveillance they could pretty easy direct any remaining parties to keep clear from one another they even chose the meeting destination
>>215826666You're bad at analogies. Even just combining two minds in to one raises questions. One person likes meat, and the other doesn't. So what does the single mind like?
>>215826196Player Piano has nothing in common with this show you fucking brainlet retard.
>>215826700>they gave her a cell of people who thought it wasn't so badHere's the thing though. Is the hivemind capable of lying? They obviously can and will withhold information that is inconvenient for their plans but so far they haven't straight up lied about anything that the viewer knows of
>>215826707the hivemind doesn't care what the people within likeit absorbs their memories, not their feelings
>>215825111
>The title for her unreleased book is "Bitter Chrysalis">Bitter (miserable)Okay, I'm kind of starting to think this is just her book being played out.
>>215826700why would they bother hiding that from Carol when they don't see her as a threat?
>>215826734How do they not see her as a threat ?
>>215826734They say "your life is your own" but they probably don't want her to an hero or convince others to. Not that they'll do anything to stop it
>>215826714I'd believe that a lot more easily than Carol being the only survivor who cares about the individuality of the human race you could argue the rat showed deceit by pretending to be dead but it's not a sure thing it did it conscientiously, and beyond that it would essentially be patient zero so it had no hivemind to influence its thoughts
>>215826714they lied and lied very poorly when they said multiple times to Carol that she had a choice/bodily autonomy/etc when they literally just forcefed the entire earth.
>>215826740what threat does she pose against them?they see her and the other survivors as a problem to be solved, not as an actual threat to their existence
>>215826714Nothing obvious. Maybe on a close rewatch something small and seemingly minor may be there.One thing I am thinking is that there is one more main cast member in all the promotional stuff we know plays the jungle man. However the hive said we have seen all the English speakers.I'm personally curious if they are going to have a major cast member that doesn't speak English at all. A bit meta analysis but it is what it is.
>>215826748>it would essentially be patient zero so it had no hivemind to influence its thoughtsthere was an entire lab of test rats there....at a minimum every rat that had the same treatment as that one was already part of a ratpackmind
Lol, watch this scene and you can see Rhea struggling to line the truck up with the camera lmao
>>215826719The hivemind is expressing feelings. It doesn't like to kill animals for instance. The combined minds of all people decided that, but some of the individual people absorbed would beforehand be okay with killing animals and some even enjoy it. Is it based on a majority vote? How does the hivemind reconcile conflicting ideas and values into one thing?
>>215826747why would they care if anyone killed themselves?they're not against death, they just can't directly kill
>>215826757She yells at them and they all have seizures. Intentions of Carol aside that makes her a threat
>>215826781Are you a psychopath? Do you not know what empathy is?
Here's my predictions that will back up the fact that they are faking the seizures. One of the un-infected was actually part of the hive mind(If not all of 'em), he or she was there just to spy on them.If I have to bet, my money is on my wife>>215826483>>215826221>>215826592Anime is not that bad anon, In fact, we might have a shinji ikari situation at hand, carol will be the one deciding if the shit sticks or collpases, that's why they are playing games with her instead of just killing her
>>215826777or, they were each their own independent hivemind with no link. They are shown swabbing DNA to spread as opposed to them mass producing whatever they synthesized on the ratsall this is also assuming the rats were anything else but test animals
>>215826781there isnt even evidence that they cant/wont kill directly just that they havent.
>>215826779Theory: the reason her emotional outbursts affect it so much is because this conflict you're describing is just below the surface of the hivemind. There are literally billions in the minority who probably want OUT and absolutely agree with Carol. The hivemind has to expend energy to suppress them.
>>215826779>It doesn't like to kill animals for instance.it doesn't "like" anything, it's unwillingness to kill is its biological programming>The combined minds of all people decided that, but some of the individual people absorbed would beforehand be okay with killing animals and some even enjoy it. Is it based on a majority vote?this is just retarded, it's a singular mind not billions of independent mindseven if you're dumb brown theory was right, most humans eat meat
>>215824822kek
I don't get it. What about all the rapists and killers this assimilated? What happened to them and their knowledge? Are they just supressed?
>>215826788if they were truly scared of her, they'd just completely avoid contact with her and cease all interactionsthey have complete power over Carol's life, just not her mind>>215826806the hivemind doesn't feel empathy that's the whole point
>>215826827You sound retarded maybe you should just sit down and shut up for a while.
>>215826811the error here is you've made the assumption that it being "mass produced" in a lab is somehow more efficient than it being shed from a biological entity........might want to learn how a lab produces RNA first.
>>215826827>biological programmingSo the virus imposes a set of values on the hivemind?>dumb brown theoryI'm saying it doesn't make sense unless there's some overarching intelligence that governs how the hivemind forms and acts, or its something like >>215826820 where there is internal conflict and some values are dominant and forcing other opinions down, but not completely.
>>215826820>There are literally billions in the minority who probably want OUT and absolutely agree with Carol. The hivemind has to expend energy to suppress themI can buy this. But then Zosia probably would have told Carol straight up that her tantrum killed 11 million people to guilt trip her into compliance
>>215826846>if they were truly scared of herI'd say a mix of scared and extreme curiosity how she resisted their super virus and want to observe if it was psychological or what that allows potentially others to resist them.
>>215826846>the hivemind doesn't feel empathy that's the whole pointim not sure where you got that point from. empathy is understanding a person's emotions.... the hivemind being the knowledge of every humans collected experiences is fundamentally a supercomputer of empathy.
>>215826867The amount of invalids here who don't understand what a virus is and instead have their own big brained theories is astounding. I'm gonna ask a very basic question for the retards in this thread: Does a virus want to kill a host or does it want to reproduce itself?
I think the solution is pretty clear but a drastic one. You need to completely overload the hivemind until one of the links "breaks" causing chain reaction collapse.You would probably need to go pretty much Postal on them. Torture, murder, rape, call them the worst things imaginable until hivemind cannot take it anymore.
>>215826867>So the virus imposes a set of values on the hivemind?yes exactly, the virus absorbs human intelligence into it but is using it to act on its biological programminga deer for example is very unlikely to kill another animal (outside of defense), but it's not morally against it, it just isn't in its nature
>>215824911>>mudslime instantly starts raping>>pajeet instantly starts simping for the colonizing forceI'm of South American descent so I need to know what the unseen Paraguayan guy has been up to since that's pretty much me. Unironically the first thing I thought of was "finally some peace and quiet with no one yelling." Also I think a South American will have more in common with Carol than the African and Asians that Carol met.
me, chillin' in the tub until the next episode.
>>215826895Brother, the hivemind is caused by the virus, but the hivemind itself is not the virus, it is an amalgamation of everyone that is appearing to have a specific personality.
>>215826895Personally I think we should nuke India and Israel. Thanks for asking.
>>215826891There's a difference between having empathy and recognizing what empathy looks like and performing it. Sociopaths can do the latter. AI can do the latter>>215826895If the virus was so dead set on reproducing itself we would be seeing mass orgies everywhere which doesn't seem to be happening yet
>>215826891empathy is not the same as understanding emotions on an intellectual levelthe hivemind knows what emotions are, it just doesn't feel themit killed 800 million people and didn't care at all
Wonder what was the signal for. Wouldn't be surprised if this is how some advanced alien race pacifices planets before they take them over.
I can't stop imitating Zosia's voice i keep going "Sorwey we dident mean to star-tle you" in a polish accent
>>215826938Holy based
>>215826948I'm sticking to my theory that when they aliens arrive they say this wasn't supposed to happen and they made a mistake.
>>215825021If something like that happens in real life mankind will test in the middle of nowhere in a underground facility with extreme security, in case of a breach they will just incinerate everything inside or nuke the facility
How will the hivemind reproduce, it seems completely asexual across itself.
>>215826950You're most likely going to be treated with heavy-duty benzodiazepines and tranquilizer medications, anti-psychotics for your hallucinations as well.

These people where either robbing the house when they got hive-minded or they where the neighbours.
I have a feeling killing just one of the hivemind members with actual premeditiation and hate would have it shut down.
>>215827024Manousos is going to have to test this...
SO I guess maybe the virus itself is the hivemind, an intelligent virus that is using all the knowledge of the people connected.
>>215827024I have a feeling you're a fucking retard who should stop talking
This shit is literally Crossed ripoff but instead of insanity and hate virus, it's empathy and kidness.
