We didn't mean 2 startle you carol EditionPrevious: >>215833475>>215827332
>>215841044Why is she in sackcloth and covered in ash ?
She knocked him over like a bowling pin
>>215841154She was a sex slave before assimilation
>>215841229Plausible
>>215841154she was on body disposal cleaning up the hundreds of millions of dead bodies all over the world wherever she was. Did you just not watch the show?
if all the WEs aren't wearing these by the end of the season I will be big mad
>third worlders are given food and new clothes while being threatened with individual anihilation and they are okay with it>American realizing that individual thoughts and sovereignty is the highest ideal and worth fighting forSeems pretty racist and accurate.
How would you react if this develops into a "monster of the week" ordeal ?
Je veux l' cunnày
>>215841044I hope that was an ass double cause yikes, that was one flat ass!
>>215841503It wasn't a double but leave her alone she's just a human being
>>215841477le consent? Je ne comprend pas
We get it Vince, you don't like AI !
>>215841229I think it's going to be something like thisCarol is going to ask "What did Zosia do before she turned" and it'll be sad shit that makes her think oh if this was cured her life would be miserable
>>215841566>sex slave before assimiliation>dyke's personal real waifu post assimilationZosia's life is suffering
>>215841044Im genuinely surprised these generals always hit bump limit. How is this show such a hit with /tv/?
>>215841673What else is there?
>>215841673Vincent Daniel Gilligan... that's more then enough to draw eyes.
>>215841673cute girls and bravo vince
>>215841673the premise is interesting and there are enough waifufags for seehorn
>>215841693She's literally just laying there
>>215841044>>215841693>EYYYYY I'M PLURIBIN EREEEEEE
this show was crazy
>>215841414Could be key-know
>>215841673Don't be so certain it is or will stay that way, Alien: Earth also had regular generals that hit bump limit after all.
>>215841673Seehorn, that's literally it. Her feet were kino in BCS and everyone wants more foot content.
>>215841735*is crazyThe show is still airing and the 2 episodes are readily available
>>215841735I just realised those planes look like geese
Serious question: would age of consent no longer be a thing? I mean the brown dude is literally fucking all the kids and babies in the world as well when hes having sex with anyone from his harem.
>>215841827millionth time this has been asked awardno, it wouldn't. there would be no difference between fucking zosia and a toddlerno, vince won't ever even hint at this because he's afraid
>>215841673Cuz it's kino. Wasn't White Lotus general also hitting bump limit? And threads the came after were, somehow, riddled with haters. Very bizarre
>>215841936Carol asking the little jeet if he would do palpations is probably as close as there'll be to touching the subject
>incroyable!based frenchie is my fav character so farthe competition ain't too fierce I know I hope the show introduces more immune characters
>>215842033Guy from Paraguay is coming up next episode right?
>>215841044>rape one of them>they all feel it
>>215842137Can you even rape a hivemind? Like its only rape on an individual level, which no longer exists.
>>215842183Its a multiple bodies but they all share the same mind
>>215842183Honestly I don't know, that's why i will try.
I must have missed this part (was half watching it whilst on the phone to my wife's son) but did they ever explain why the small but strong female protagonist stopped that stupidly oversized patriarchal plane (which is clearly an over-compensation for something, am I right)?
>>215841044After the cleanup from the takeover what are the +7 billion going to do? Build another dish to broadcast the signal further?
>>215841998Why does the mother care about the conversation topic? I don't get it
>>215841827No it’s not a thing anymore, the hive mind is simple 1 giant organism, having sex with one is the same as having sex with all of them
>>215841044E Pluribus Anus
>>215841044why did she hesitate before getting on the plane
>>215842283She can't go to Yemen, she's an analyst and only human after all
>>215842223Sure but the thing is by virtue of it they don't give much of a shit about particular bodies. Carol killed some with her bitching, afrocoomer has his own harem, but overall to the hivemind the matter is minimal.
>>215842261No one here knows, try waiting for future episodes.
>>215842261Just live? What do we currently do right now?
>>215841044Raban does look like a woman with a fake mustache on the book cover, how did those fangirls not notice?
>>215841827no - even if it was there are national differences which would cause significant cognitive dissonance within the hive in terms of morality. the hive doesn't care what the immunes are diddling. they don't even care if they're poisoning their bodies with excess alcohol. they're stalling for time before assimilation and no doubt they're preparing for whatever their primary goal is.
>>215842310>how did those fangirls not notice?the fact that they read those books should be an indicator
What will come first; running out of fresh meat to eat and being forced to go vegan, or them figuring out how to join you?
i hope we get a creepy talking baby scene
>>215842341Vince said he wants it to go for 4 seasons so i am sure other stuff will happen. As soon as the hivemind converts the rest of the normal people the show ends
>>215842341umm acshully you'll find that they might just move to a vegan diet immediately because it's acshully much more beneficial to your mind and body and it also makes them good fucking people
>>215842324Their goal seems to be total assimilation, it's pretty clearly stated.
>>215842262It's a callback to when Carol mentioned her son was also her gynecologist, its snapping her out of her denial that's still her son
>>215842368As much as you know. They lie and practice sins of omission. They'll have other things planned beyond full assborgers.
>>215842341Do you have any idea how much meat there is preserved in the world ? Canned meat in supermarkets, warehouses and distribution centers, that alone would last a small group of people millions of lifetimes, frozen fish on fishing boats it goes on and on, also not to mention, wild game populations will drastically increase.
>>215842341>them figuring out how to join you?didn't the hive say that they were only months away from that?For fresh meat you could simply move to somewhere where there's a lot of live game to hunt and kill them yourself and have that last for years
>>215842341Why would running out of meat happen exactly? There's 1 billion less people than before and everyone still does their jobs.
>>215842387This is true, but they are clearly an existential threat to the remaining uninfected, and and that is enough to know.
>>215842283Zosia is one big scheme from the hivemind>she looks like carol's dream girl and has helen's memories>purposefully have her seduce frenchie so he'll take her into his harem>carol doesn't want to see her favorite OC and dream girl become some bimbo fawning over a dude, as she mentioned to helen>she lives out her fantasy of rescuing her from dangerZosia looking one last time was a carefully calculated move to seduce Carol and trigger her into being a saviorfag. Look how jelly she is>>215841760
>>215842245They couldn't run her over because they can't knowingly harm humans. This show might be too advanced for your kind.
>>215842417They're not going to raise new animals for slaughter though, once the meat is gone or spoiled, that's it. I'm not even sure if they'd eat veggies. Eventually they might just create some shitty diet supplement for everyone to avoid killing anything
>/tv/ thinks the hivemind are evilmajor media illiteracy moment
>>215842451I'm not convinced that all the uninfected are actually not part of the hivemind.
>>215842477eroding free will is pretty evil>but le virus can't help but spread because that's what its programmed to doI don't care if it can't help it, it's still evil
>>215842477Quiet, hiveminder.
>>215842477>forcefully takeover people>not evil
I know that Rheas a hag and it was different back in her day but is this show really expecting me to believe that Carol is scared of coming out as a carpet muncher in the current year?
Why were the other 5 survivors complete retards? Gotta be a false flag they tricked her into thinking they are not infected
>>215841304Right, they should, and also stop using vehicles since the dyke might give them epilepsy at any moment.
>>215842477/tv/ keeps on forgetting this is a drama show and keeps on thinking its scifi
>they can simulate conversation with each otherLike those AI talking to each other clickbait vids
>>215842532didn't she write straight romance porn novels? maybe she was worried that being publicly gay might impact her reputation as a novelist
>>215842438>they are clearly an existential threat to the remaining uninfectednobody suggested otherwise>that is enough to knowdisagree - plenty more to know, what else are they doing offscreen and away from their goal of distracting the immunes until they complete human instrumentality project? what reproduction structures do they have? how do they handle attrition? what grander function does the hivemind serve beyond orange tanging the humans? how do they plan to integrate/isolate from the animal kingdom and natural predators? when will they show Kim's feet covered in a shiny, vicious liquid?
>>215842532It's probably because she's specifically a het romantasy writer, not making the MC a pirate lady would be symbolic of that
>>215842495That would make the show go in another direction, i think things are as they look.
>>215841044>he doesn't know about the oldschoolersembarrassing desu
Any other hivemind kino recommendation
>>215842469What if they didn't see her because they were on that ridiculously large and phallic airplane, possibly distracted by the Indian RAPIST and our brave heroine's tiny presence wasn't noticed. That would be unknowing harm and she might have died. She's literally the only thing left to save humanity and like they say: if you want a job done right, ask an experienced but cynical woman to do it!
>Hivemind refuses to hurt even insectsIsn’t this going to be a huge problem for farming if it can’t use pesticides?
why did she pull the shower curtain
>>215841827You know those hentai where the loli is actually an adult in a kid body?Yeah, that just became real. I would fuck every pretty female with over zero pubes. Humanity is over and not coming back, the best i can do is win in the genes game and have a bunch of kids.In fact, i would tell the hivemind to use my sperm to inseminate as many women as possible to just before the point where it becomes an inbreeding risk. If i was this nigga i was gonna be bigger than Genghis khan.
>>215842687didn't want to watch herself shower
>>215842586>when will they show Kim's feet covered in a shiny, vicious liquid?Asking the real questions, this one.
how did the president die
>>215842687to not spill water on the floor duh
>>215842310She cornered a niche from the womanslop books with her dyke tastes.
So babies are affected by the virus too right? Are they part of the hivemind? Can babies talk eloquently like adults now?
>>215842687I spent way too much time thinking about this. I think either she just didn’t want to get the floor wet or the hivemind still has some leftover habits from being independent
>>215842742heart attack on the toilet while posting on truth social
>>215842687Why wasn't she smiling in the shower ?
>>215842687To not make a mess
>>215842759>So babies are affected by the virus too right? Are they part of the hivemind?They are, Carol looking at the shaking baby carrier in the hospital in ep 1 confirms it>Can babies talk eloquently like adults now?Not having teeth and possibly weaker vocal muscles may ruin it. But I imagine something like 2 year olds and older toddlers surely can
>>215842759Aside from not having teeth, I would think they'd be too stupid to properly receive that level of info. It's like streaming a 4k game on a 20 year old computer.
>>215842310The book cover was so bad. It reminded me of Ecce Mono.
>>215842687>carol talking about the millions who died because of the joining>camera stays focused on zosia despite carol talkingA hint of guilt or just a trick?
>>215842759Providing they've got sufficient strength to stand upright and walk, it's more than that. They've all got the knowledge, experience and mastery of parkour, ballet, gymnastics, capoeira, fuck it MMA, you name it. They can then articulate every move they're making, using manipulative linguistic techniques (Milton Model, etc) whilst studying your facial reactions to make accurate assessments on whether you're lying or what true feelings you're hiding.
>>215842839Could be, it's still a developing story, it's crazy how people in this general have concluded the nature of the hivemind or in fact what it is, based on... not much at all so far.
>>215842839but the hivemind does feel guilty
>>215842870Vince is too much of a coward to give us the baby master martial artist super detectives that this brave new world has given birth to.
>>215842873It's 100% the rat king's wizards who are behind it and only the ghosts of the deceased can stop them. There's not a single poster here who can convince me otherwise.
>>215842532In the current age, being gay in the romance market is a death sentence to higher earnings. The majority of women who buy romance novels are conservatives.
God I wish I were an immune>Hivemind, use your collective brainpower to simulate really enjoyable companions who are indistinguishable from immune individuals and bring me the 5 most attractive women in the city
>>215842875The hivemind claims to feel guilty
>>215842261>Build another dish to broadcast the signal further?I think that's the implication. They're going to start building a giant dish the size of Africa while trying to figure out how to assimilate the remaining 12 to ensure they don't mess up their plans or at least keep them happy and pacified so their outbursts don't give them any more seizures.
>>215842360I have no faith that this story can be stretched for 4 seasons without becoming pure shit.
>>215842477Collectivism is inherently evil
why did she hate them
>>215842940that's why you are not Vince
>>215842940>season 1 is Carol adjusting to new normal>season 2 Carol begins a strategy to fight back via deception>season 3 Carol links up with someone who either developed a vaccine, or a cure>season 4 Carol summons enemies of the hivemind and has to decide to work with them, or accept and defend the hivemindthere's potential, you just lack imagination
>>215842687The only out of tune thing in the story is the idea that they would just open the fucking zoos instead of carefully rehabilitating and releasing the animals.
>>215842978how could you not? the only thing more cringe than these autistic fans is probably a furry convention
>>215842956spoken like a good billionaire lapdog
>>215842938This sounds the most accurate. If reeeeing can cause a lot of them to die and they are unable to harm anyone, they're going to either assimilate them, keep them compliant or wait for them to naturally pass on before doing the giant dish or whatever.Or it might just be some lazy outcome where the hivemind is meant to be like worker bees to some other race that will come for the planet once assimilation is complete and the communication has been sent off.
>>215842919>5 most attractive women in the cityHere are you r 5 most attractive women... from DELHI SAAAAAR!
>>215842978Have you smelled them? THAT concentration of them?
>>215842978>be author>write shit>people love shitShe felt trapped by her creation, and dreamed of writing something better.
>>215842996too stretched. Saul already showed that these people can get pacing wrong and focus on crap i don't care about
>>215843006>have every expert on lions in the world>still just release and get people mauledGot to assume that releasing the animals was such an imperative they were willing to let people die stupidly for it
>>215842978she knows her books are slop and they love them
>>215842978She hates her own work. It makes sense that she'd hate anyone that likes what she views as shit. It also may just be the case that Carol is a shitty person.
>>215842978MANDOVIAN SPICEFRUIT?!? FUCK YOU
>nooo people love my slop I can't write anything elseJust release the book under a pen name
I wonder if i could convince them to let me detonate a nuke, i always wanted to see a nuke.I would have flown to the meeting in a sr-71 or a b-2 just because it's cool.I would make them take me to the moon.>>215843040Retarded as fuck, may animals will just die from wrong environment.
>>215843006you overlook that the virus is in some way in the animals too
>>215843077No one said she couldn't write anything else. Her girlfriend was encouraging her to stop making excuses and publish what she'd always wanted to publish.
>>215843077Yeah because people are gonna by a book written by "bic" yeah that'll sell
Carol is a shitty person but she's also not wrong. All the other individuals are either deluded or short-sighted, humanity has been lost. Then again if I were one of the immunes, I would see that there's clearly no realistic option to change things, I wonder what asspull Vince is gonna come up with
>>215843080>sr-71This is a good choice. Careful watching a nuke detonate though. You could fry your eyeballs.
>favorite food is fishBRAVO
>>215843097the virus can infect animals, but if animals killed some people clearly those weren't infected. The virus probably prefers higher lifeforms.
>>215843101If she truly cares about the art and not about sales then simply publishing the book should be enough
>>215843080>I would make them take me to the moonGoing to the moon would fucking suck though
>mfw reading the questions that people in these threads ask about the show which have very obvious answers if you watch the showchat are we cooked?
>>215843146you obviously weren't here for /bcs/ and the constant idiocy posted by speedwatchers
>>215843146>Pretentious non-specific post adding nothing to discussion except sniffing your own farts
Kinda racist they made the alien rapist a black guy in second episode.
>>215843115Curious if dolphins and elephants get in on the plan, since they are smarter than some retards.
>>215843097I wonder. What if all the mammals are in the hivemind, carnivores will have to go extinct.I'm already getting disappointed because this is not gonna go deep into the sci fi of it. >>215843108They know the best safety settings for me. >>215843142Yeah, but i just can't pass the opportunity.
Carol discovers the hivemind reacts poorly to drugsShe saves the world by cooking meth
>We don't killAKSHUALLY planes kill thousands of insects, even cars and buses and trains do! Boy I sure hope someone got fired for that blunder
>>215843184They literally brought up the "what if you step on an ant" scenario you IDIOT
>>215843118It takes a lot of time and energy to write, and you need to cover costs. It's basic business.
>>215843115Checks out, higher lifeform means more knowledge and more processing power
>>215843146I'm not even bothering to watch it, I'm just reading the summaries from Wikipedia kek. I did the same when I gave up on Walking Dead but was curious to know what happened.
>>215843193Her popular book is already covering costs
Pretty sure the animals and zoo is gonna be a big plot point. My guess is that the virus also effects animals.
>>215843191They purposely use planes though which kill thousands more than just walking
>>215843013I hope it's not an alien invasion but just a cycle of races picking up a signal, getting infected, and then passing it along. Maybe the signal has been around for billions of years and no one in the universe knows where it's from.
>>215843182and by crafting a technically sound but spiritually defunct argument
>>215843212>there are ants in the sky
>>215843211>My guess is that the virus also effects animals.Brother did you miss the fucking rat biting The scientist
>the immune close their ears later than the joined >them smiling, with the grandma leaning over to lookkino
>>215843227Flies and birds, never heard of the miracle on the Hudson?
Anyone else have no idea they were a couple before they saw the family photo? No chemistry or affection at all. The lesbian bed death is real
>so what would you like to do today immunanon?Bring me the entire surviving cast, past and present of WWE>if this pleases you, we're boarding on a plane right now with our costumesPerfect. Did Kevin Nash survive?>we have Kevin with us, yesOkay prepare Madison Square Garden. I want the works: spectacular visuals, a full crowd, everyone cheering, this has to be the biggest show on Earth.>what type of match ups would you like? Cage match? Royal Rumble?No fighting. I need Kevin to enter the ring first then every minute a new wrestler joins to either hold him down or sodomise him. Kevin must cry through-out.>your wish is our command
>>215843227>implying
>>215843216Interesting as that may be, it's obvious there is some build happening and I think the worker bee thing is the most likely outcome here. It would also explain why they can't harm, since it means they are unable to turn against their incoming masters.
>>215843228Ok but the hivemind idea doesn’t work. The largest group of life on earth is bugs , meaning 80% of the hivemind would have bug instincts.
Does the show explain the specific time lag between the first rat bite and total global infection? It seems like there wouuld still be pockets of uninfected humans. I might have missed a key detail in episode one.
>>215843181It was said that the release of lions caused some maulings, maybe the virus doesn't infect carnivores at all.
>>215843107It's a very realistic depiction of nonwhites vs whites. Nonwhites truly are NPCs and can't think further ahead than their next meal.
>>215843300oh yeah
>>215843243flies and birds are not ants.
>>215841044What do you guys think of the ending where Pirate Lady turns back to look at Carol before entering the plane? Seems like an odd thing to include.
>>215843285Thus far we've only seen it infect mammals, like humans and rats.Being a mind virus it may be unable to infect invertebrates at all, being more specifically crafted or evolved for central nervous systems of vertebrate types. Or maybe even more specific and just mammals.
>>215842910>The majority of women who buy romance novels are conservativesStop talking out of your ass anon
>>215843299Zosia mentions at the lunch scene that they were infecting people individually for the first month, and then the military found out so they had to accelerate infection to infect everyone at once somehow.
>>215843299Yes, it regularly shows a counter before the "joining". The time lag between the rat bite and total global infection is about 30 days. In the final day, they use planes to cover the atmosphere with the virus.
>>215843312The hivemind fixes literally every issue you have with nonwhites.
>>215843285The hivemind is additive, not an average of its parts. Otherwise it would be not that smart or skilled at anything, instead it's more like it has the skills of the entire human race.
>>215843329The hivemind is purposefully playing on Carol's romantic fantasy; she's rescuing her female character from fawning over some asshole dude, which she hates
>>215843329She was contemplating the unique personal decision she made which favoured one immune over another. She was struggling with the dissonance. She'll be made to make more decisions of that nature until Carol splits the hivemind. The next episode is called "Grenade" so I'm guessing there's an explosive Trolley Problem being lined up.
>>215843389Sounds like the death of art and innovation.
the billion people who died only died because they were driving cars or fell over and hit their head, right? not because of some allergic reaction?
>That was the division of labor when we started all this. And that's exactly how we should have kept it. 'Cause I sure as hell didn't find myself locked in a trunk or on my knees with a pluribus to my head before your greedy old ass came along, all right?So what's this about Vince writing the show as it goes, sounds like he had it planned for a long time.
>>215843350If that is all the show has explained, than I guess I didn't miss anything. Seems a little vague.
>>215843321based retard
>>215843312But how would they feel if they hadn't eaten their previous meal?
>>215843419the tv screen at the bar mentioned an air force base being locked down
>>215843383>planes to cover the atmosphere with the virus.Ahhhhhhh right. It all clicks now. Thanks chemtrail fren
what worries me about this show is the lack of characters.First, because 99.99999% of the population is hiveminded, none of them can be unique or interesting, they're all just the same person that talks with a different voice. Second, because there are only 12 non hiveminded people, and the ones we've been introduced to so far are uninteresting. Annoying pajeeta, old asian guy, latin lady, old chinese woman and the only interesting character with any personality, the Eritrean dude. Rhea is going to have to carry the entire burden of character development on this show unless they pivot and have far more uninfected people in the world somewhere.
>>215843097if the virus is in animals it means the alien is lying to the survivors when they claim they can't purposefully harm humans. The rat had to bite the hand of patient zero for the disease to spread.
>>215841687Great song btw
>>215841044>can turn any mudgrub into a 10/10thank you hivemind
>>215843409Yeah no shit. It turns the planet into a museum and humans are nothing more than robotic janitors and record keepers.
MAAM MY SON RABI IS NOT ALIEN MAAM DO NOT SAY EACH AND EVERYONE OF THOSE THINGS TO MY RABI MAAM HOW DARE YOU DOING THIS TO MY RABI MAAM
>>215843444i wonder at the others, MC didn't because fuck no english speakers
I still don’t get the hivemind idea. You telling me a rat and some scientist lady joined together and decided to infect the world. Unless the hivemind is from an alien civilization.
>>215843444they found a 12th other already so it's possible they'll find more
>>215843460>your son only eats cow poop to please you, the hivemind wouldn't want him to. That would floor pajeeta
She knew how much rock was in the ground because the ants told her
>>215843469the virus shit also includes a biological imperative to infect others
>>215843479the hivemind knows everything everyone alive knows, so the only people that aren't infected would have to be known by basically no one in the hivemind, so no living family, living like hermits and the atmospheric dumping of virus didn't impact those people, since most of the hermits around would still have been infected.
>>215843479i bet the 12th had been a part of the hivemind until carol's freakout snapped him out of it
>>215843460"Hey Apu. Tell me in detail how your mom lost her virginity."
>>215843509that might be a way for them to have more characters, some people come out of it somehow
>>215843469It's nothing new. It is a RETVRN to tribal living, except in a post-industrialised society and everyone is in one tribe.There is obviously some mysticism here, telepathy is real in this world and in the world of Pluribus
>>215842477They are evil.The writer may not think so, but then he's wrong.They are evil for the actions they've already done.
>>215843457or a giant amusement park from the aliens who are going to take over
>>215843497It would be crazy, because the hive has records of every single missing person, every single family member and friend anyone has ever lost touch with, anyone who's ever dropped into a remote store for supplies.It would have to be an insanely disconnected person to disappear. Probably someone very paranoid, might be kino.
>>215841998Everyone outside the hivemind being ok with this shit and not freaking out felt so unrealistic.How are they so fucking okay with this?All five of them in denial?
>>215843497Sounds like a bunch of average /tv/ posters
>>215843563The main issue is aliens telling them they only have months until able to be infected. Which she hardly leaned into when making her case.
>>215843460>"Laxmi, my dear, my sweetheart. Please relax and listen. I wish to take your son up on my large plane. He will not mind it and I will take precious care of him. Do you not wish for him to experience new things? Send me him with your blessings and I shall return him in fine form."
>>215841044There's your 100 million budget
>>215843563They're nonwhite. They were already part of a different hivemind.
>>215843563The hivemind has their family acting identical, they're in denial. They had the kid eating tendies
>>215841044>Hey kid, how my pussy taste like?Remember that time you pegged me?
>>215843563None of them seem to have had anywhere near as rough of a day one as Carol. And all of them have family. Accepting that the human race is now just meat puppets means accepting their family is gone even though they're right in front of them and probably acting normal not to alarm them. The show basically spells this out.Well, all this except the playboy guy, he just doesn't care because he gets to fuck supermodels.
>>215843594I bet it wasn't even the real Airforce One.
>>215843560>It would have to be an insanely disconnected person to disappear. Probably someone very paranoid, might be kino.I could see someone who was presumed dead, then turned hermit still being around.
As soon as everyone is converted to hivemind they're going to all kill themselves so the ayylmaos have zero resistance.
>>215843560i mean it depends on how long the virus could stay in the atmosphere before decomposing and how isolated someone was. I mean there's no way they could spread that virus globally to every single tiny island and everything just by spraying it into the atmosphere, people live in literally every single corner of the earth, there's uncontacted tribes in the middle of the amazon for example.

>>215841044>Bane?
>>215843594Severance does the same shit. Endless budget flexes for ultrawide lenses and crane shots. Meanwhile the plot moves at a snail’s place and 75% of every episode is padding.

>>215841044I am curious how this show can run for multiple seasons.I guess at some point the hivemind will slowly start to break, i feel like pirate lady is way less robot like than the other pod people
kino
>>215843674send contaminated food
>>215843664>Endless budget flexes for ultrawide lenses and crane shots. Meanwhile the plot moves at a snail’s place and 75% of every episode is padding.to be fair vince was doing this back in 2010 lol
>>215843674By lying to them and behaving like they weren't infected, so as to not cause alarm or suspicion. Just like they're doing right now with Carol. She's the only real immune person left, maybe 2 if the Paraguay guy has been hermitting.
>>215843693>pirate lady is way less robotThe hivemind would have you placated in seconds. They're all the same entity. It's all an illusion.
>>215843693>I am curious how this show can run for multiple seasons.people said the same thing about better call saul and it still managed to go on for 6 seasonstrust the plan
>>215843693> I am curious how this show can run for multiple seasons.That’s the easy part. End each episode on a new mystery the writers have no idea how to resolve.
>>215843695>Her blurting out "god bless america">C-Spam being the only channel still working>The whole speech in the air force one with the huge flag in the backgroundActually funny political commentary
>they cover ears from loud noises>they wear gloves when doing manual labor>they recycle>they stick to male and female gender bathroomsWhat else
>>215843786That was a bad thing though. At some point i skipped any scene that wasn't mexican gang related.
>>215843804so they are liberal soccer moms?
>>215843411That's my reading. Has anyone bothered to map the time zones at the moment of the chem trails? You could estimate which portions of the world had the fewest fatalities since they'd be asleep
>>215843563I have to agree there. It's understandable that they didnt freak out, but them looking at Carol like she's crazy was a bit odd.
>>215843804being a hive mind doesn't magically boost the durability of their human hosts
>>215843826>missed out on howard kinodamn shame
Idk, with Breaking Bad and BCS the first episodes were immediately gripping, the dialogue and writing were clever and the visuals were very creative and striking. This just feels like SyFy channel tier slop. The cunty lesbian is gonna save the world with her 2deep5u novel, it's so gay and retarded, Also the writing is sooo bad. Having the other survivors be that cartoonishly stupid to the point of it coming accross as based racism is really telling.I don't feel so good, Vincebros....
>>215842341I think you are underestimating how much meat there is in fridges/freezers for 13 peoplenot to mention you can kill your own meat
>>215843949seethe retard
>>215843965no sir I am telling you sir I will not redeem the apple plus subscription sir
>>215843789>pirate lady suddenly has a funny look in the last minute of S2E6>"we've.... we've found another immune person">smashcuts to Kim's shocked hagface... pans down slowly, fading to black just before showing her barely visible naked feed
I really hated that black guy
>>215844008he's not black he's mudslime
>>215843949BrBa and BCS had great pilots because they promised something big was going to happen down the line. In Pluribus, the big thing already happened in the pilot. And the rest of the series is the characters reacting to the event. And the premise of a small group of survivors learning to live after the world ends has been done to death by now.
>>215843789Everythings already been explained. The whole thing has been set up. Anyone expecting the focus to be on aliens or a hostile takeover are going to be disappointed. Its all going to be about middle aged lesbian drama from here on out.
>>215844019mauritania is africa, he a black muslim
is the poojeta the same as from the black mirror episode that had anti-immigation brits kek
>>215844045not everything. why are some immune? can the infected be cured? are aliens coming? do they intend to spread to another planet? why are they being so nice? humans in general are assholes, why would merging them all make them nice? why do they spaz out when someone is angry at them? why are all the other immunes seemingly totally ok with the world being taken over?
>>215844045This. Except the rest of the show to be a slow burn lesbian love story but the caveat is that Carol's love interest has the rest of the human race in her head, so its a story about a misanthrope learning to love humanity again bravo vince I kneel
>>215844008He is literally fucking every kid alive on earth when he fucks those modelsThose models also never agreed being part of the hivemind which is the whole problemClaire should have killed more
>>215844127That's too clever for Vince
>>215844008I would be worse but i wouldn't delude myself pretending i'm talking to people.
>>215844137>muslim>is a rapist pedophilebravo vince
>>215844123>Implying normies watching care about any of that
>>215844137he is fucking everyone on earth, and they are all okay with it thoughever
>>215844123And what's their tax policy? Where do they have diarrhea shits? What's their take on the industrial revolution and its consequences?
>>215844183>everyoneits one entity. There is only one person with multiple bodies
So if everyone is hive-minded, why are they still filming, wouldn't that be the least of everyone's priority ?.
>>215844222bodies that don't belong to it and did not consent
>>215843663>le Bane noir?!por toi
>>215844247>why are they still filmingwho's filming ?
>>215844261The people filming Carol
>>215844222its one entity, sure, but they(it) is/are all okay with him fucking anyone/everyoneits just semantics at this point
If it fucks itself is it incest?
>>215844296Whcihever body you're fucking its the same person>>215844322Masturbation
>>215841044This will be the last week for generals on /tv/ since the mods recieved information detailing how the Alien Earth general thread was botted by a single tripcode user. They may be adding a new board for generals or just banning them altogether. Enjoy the thread while it lasts.
Its one entity with billions of dicks and vaginas
>>215844354>tripfag ruining generalsshocker
>>215844354and every other thread on this website, its all botsalso everything that hack Ridley shat out can be ignored the money behind the alien franchise reeks of desperation
>>215844248Every person who becomes one with it seems to think its okay, none of them seem to want to get out. Even though they were joined with out asking, once in they like it, so they are all consenting
There will be an episode where Carol tries some plan to break the hive mind and instead of breaking it, it actually implants her personality in the hive mind and causes it to override everything else. So the hive mind is still a hive mind but it is stuck with Carol's personality and Carol has to reflect on what dealing with herself is like.
>>215844410that's not them consenting retard, that's the hivemind consenting to itself
>>215844410>kill you and let a black muslim fuck your corpse>your corpse doesn't protest>clearly you consent to being killed and fucked by a black muslim man
>>215844481So by that lovely analogy you are implying the humans are all dead and they are basically just the hivemind with no trace of the individual occupant, ie if they were disconnected from the hivemind, that body would just drop to the floor as a corpse. So there is nothing there except the hivemind, which consents.
>>215844546In that way its like someone giving you permission to fuck a dead body, is that ok
>>215843101I laughed
Some throwing some questions out there 1) the hive mind morality would surely seem to be that the ends justify the means (eg willing to kill 800k for assimilation). Why balk after at killing the remaining 12 outright? Or at the very least kill or detain Carol who’s causing them lots of damage?2) is it possible some or all of the other “unassimilated” people besides Carol are actually part of the hive mind, possibly to demoralise Carol. Most of them just seem remarkably NPC like3) Is Zosia acting more emotionally complex than others and may be still battling the virus? Which is why strong shows of emotion and aggression from Carol affects her really badly? Of course the hive mind would have capacity to be a manipulative genius, but just speculating 4) Would the assimilated procreate, or be capable of procreating? If so, for what end?
>>215844598If the ghost of a person gave me permission to fuck their dead body that would be ok. And the personalities of everyone exists within the hivemind, so they are giving you permission to fuck the body
>>215844704>800k
>>215843180>elephant instincts overtake the hivemind for a second and they stomp one of the indians to death
>>215844546>spray you with neurotoxin that paralyzes you but leaves you conscious and let a black muslim fuck you>you paralyzed body doesn't protest>clearly you consent to being fucked by a black muslim man
>>215844794Lots of white women are BNWOpilled now anonThey have the same fixation as white men when it comes to african genitaliaIn fact, in some absurd way, i believe the cause of modern gen z white girls love for african genitalia IS due to white mans homoerotic fascination with it.
>>215843300>all the immunies were just the only people left on an Atkins dietBRAVO VINCE
>>215844704>1)They didn't kill those people deliberately, and in their logic as long as those people "joined" in their death throes then they're not really dead.>2)I think they're all unassimilated, they're just accepting the situation because they have loved ones and can't accept that they're gone. That and the fact they don't see that they can even do anything about it.>3)It's not really clear yet how fuzzy the boundary is between individuals and the hive. I think that the hivemind can't handle negative emotions, it needs everyone to be placid and agreeable or the whole thing breaks down. They have hyperactive/psychic empathy to make this possible but it makes them vulnerable to outside negativity.>4)They will procreate just to keep the hivemind in existence, and they need humans to build the continent sized transmitter to send the signal to another planet.
Is everyone forgetting this is a virus not just freaking radio waves???? They were vuemyrsilimg Chem trailing everyone
>>2158447041. we really dont know jack about shit about the mivehind. the outliers are likely important2. most definitely3. assume the mivehind has access to every actor on the planet4. sure, they're the base for a worker bee caste
>>215844963What the flip you on about, who saying its radio waves?
>>215845006PEOPLE FORGETTING ABOUT THE RST EAT THE LADY THEN RUNTHEN THEY MAKE DISC WITH RUB FROM MOUTHTHEN THE AIRPLANE SPRAYNO NEED FOR RADIO WAVES. IT VIRUS like cold
this could have been avoided if you just wore the mask
>>215843790>America stands alone against the global third world menacechecks out
>>215845040OK calm down buddy...Who even mentioned radio waves except you
>>215844045>Its all going to be about middle aged lesbian drama from here on out.
I do hope the show goes beyond "erm err well no one is acktually happy"
Maybe its radio waves
>>215844953>>215844977If the hive wants a worker bee caste, why would it cut off the meat production that keeps the workers healthy? If it knows how the human body works, then it knows humans need meat as part of a balanced diet, and killing livestock is justified. Also, killing insects with pesticides to keep crops from getting overrun. And polluting areas for mines and mills and drills to keep transport going indefinitely and the workers working efficiently. What the hive is doing is against its own interests.
>>215844704We'll hopefully learn more about why they want to assimilate so badly, but my guess is a large part of the drive to assimilate is about acquiring the individual's unique thoughts and memories. They don't want to kill the immune because they want their minds. And why bother detaining them? The immune can't really do anything and even Carol's outbursts don't matter because the memories have already been distributed across the collective.
>>215845061They said!!operation warp speed need vaccine
>>215845109>a few green screens in abq>better cgi than billion dollar marvel/dc moviesoh no no no
Figuring out why the immunes are immune helps them tweak the virus for the next broadcast
>>215845146Oh the people in the show said something about radio waves? Well I mean even if its spread with a virus, there has to be a connection between them somehow. Maybe its bluetooth?
>>215844704>800k it was 800 million anon
>>215845184It's like COVID, graphene in v accine
the hivemind is being controlled by the lady that bought 2 books in the 1st episodeshe wants carol to join the hive so she can know what happens in the next book
>>215845131I think the Hivemind can't work if aggression or negative emotion is possible. It suppresses those aspect of the personality because negative emotion is like a seizure to it. It's a precondition to there even being a hivemind that they are incapable of violence, at least in a direct sense.
>>215845131assuming assumptions blah blah blah its always the lowest bot level takesthe mivehind can create a perfected meatless diet for itself, or maybe perhaps its lying?
>>215845133If people were able to resist the virus, then it could also mean people in the hivemind could leave. The hivemind wants to know the truth of these anomalies because the anomaly could be a potential threat.
Probably just eat beans
For the retards in the thread, the radio waves were broadcasting the information for how to build the mind control groupthink virus. Once the science nerds decoded it and built the virus, it spread via biological contagion, like HIV. Once a person is infected, they somehow know everything that every other person knows, possibly through biologically enabled telepathy, but not radio waves. Hope this helps.
it's definitely 5g radio waves
>>215845294How does telepathy work though? It must be radio waves.
>>215845294Everyone knows this if they watched the show.
>>215845374Literally magic.
>>215845205>assuming assumptionsWell, yeah, there's only two episodes. I'm saying that the worker bee theory other anons put out there is flawed because the hivemind is going about it in the most counterintuitive way possible.
>>215845374This show is /x/ pilled. If you dont grasp that you'll be filtered
gus has telepathy
so the aliens' plans for spreading their virus is entirely dependent on hoping some retard scientists immediately start trying to recreate the virus waves they heard from space
>>215845374
>>215845544>so the aliens' plansThere's no alien plan. They're a hive mind themselves and are just broadcasting the signal into the universe hoping someone out there will create the virus.
>>215845604shes nothing specialher smug expression annoys me too
>>215845638There's going to be a hamfisted message about how humans are the only intelligent lifeforms the gorillion year old hivemind has come across that kill other living things to survive, isn't there?
>>215845544In the movie Contact, the aliens send plans to build a spacecraft thru radio waves and the scientists immediately build it without knowing if it's dangerous or not. Could have been the plans for a bomb.
Catastrophism is the theory that human society is doomed to repeat itself in cycles of prosperity followed by total destruction. The only way to make the next leap, to becoming a spacefaring civilisation and beyond, is with help of ETs.
>>215845760You'd be able to tell from the plans what it was, like ti would have seats and a steering wheel and shit
>>215845638that's still an alien plan retardand it had to have started from somewhere
>the entire show is based off an episode of rick and mortyunity
>>215845842>rick and morty invented hive minds
>>215845842I read an article that said that primitive tribes functioned much like a "hivemind", maybe in a way more literal than we think too. That is to say, this concept isnt new at allIn fact monotheistic religions like Christianity and Islam are hiveminds too.
>>215845830Its literally not important
>>215845870>In fact monotheistic religions like Christianity and Islam are hiveminds too.That's not true, unless you're talking in some vague metaphorical sense.
>>215845870>primitive tribes functioned much like a "hivemind">le reddit scienceThats literally not what a hivemind is
Dolphins and whales???MONKEYS???
>>215845853no but the way its being represented in the show is identical to unity from r&m
pickle rick?
>>215845879>t. uncurious NPC
carol is going to turn herself into a pickle to defeat the hive mind
>>215845940Really doesn't matter that much to this story though. At some point somewhere someone made a virus that made everyon unite, then they built a big telescope and beamed it as us, thats where it starts. And probabyl they would want to do the same thing on earth and beam it somwhere else, thats just what it does. This kinda show is not so much about those details but how the characters deal with the situation.
>>215845842>the entire show of pickles and szechuan is based off an episode of star trekmirror, mirror
>>215845892Yes i do mean it in a metaphorical sense. The religions function as hiveminds. No god but allah. Only through christ. Us vs them etc>>215845900>erm literally notstfu reddit faggot
>>215846002>star trek is based on star warscircles
>>215845892it is true, the only difference is the hivemind is enforced through cultural brainwashing rather than telepathic
>it's bees
>>215846033>the entire franchise of wars de star is based off a japanese cult classic filmhiddan forrutressu
>>215845997> This kinda show is not so much about those details but how the characters deal with the situation.Carol is currently hellbent on saving the world which means figuring out the origins of the virus in order to undo it. I have no idea how you can be so certain its "not that kind of show"
>>215845911>>215846080no it's the grass
Why did she have to be gay?
>>215846323Liking girls is straight.
>>215846323seethe
>>215846190>>215846190>I have no idea how you can be so certain its "not that kind of show"Well the hivemind itself says "we dunno how it works, it just does". The setup is ridiculously presented as some pissant operation when it would be a massively secure facility in the middle of nowhere. Its basically saying "it doesn't really matter, the virus just got out ok"Plus it just gives that vibe that it isn't interested in presenting technical explanations for how and why, its just about the concept itself, ie if everyone is happy whats so bad about it etc, no more killing no more bad stuff blah blahI expect that they will pursue the idea of trying to "cure" it but that itself will be some other immune who's a general purpose scientist who says some le science mumbojumbo and wa la we got a cure or some shit. Its about the idea, how people cope with it, what it means to be part of it or out of it. I don't think we'll see a long history of how the aliens that created it came to be, like the three body problem VR sections for example.
>>215846370Rhea Seehorn is a woman not a man. It's hard to tell but she is.
>>215846388We may not get to see full alien reveal where they come down on UFO and tell us their plans but we will at least come to know their intentions, specifically if its malevolent or benevolent
>>215846432>we will at least come to know their intentions, specifically if its malevolent or benevolentI doubt it, the only thing they sent out was the signal. I think they were also under the effects of the virus and this is just how it spreads itself.
>>215846517Are they? That's a big assumption.
"Aliens did it" is the explanation, thats it.
