Beautiful hag EditionPrevious: >>215861486
I said it in the last general and Ill say it again: Its hilarious everyone here is obsessed with the scifi elements when the show is just going to be about Carol's human drama now
So is the hivemind just constantly having sex with itself (masturbating?) to make new humans to control
this show is FUCKING KINOOOOO
>>215867919damn bro you ugly
>>215867919>Average low IQ pluribus watcher
the 13 (12 apostles + Carol, with Manousos being Judas) were probed by aliens to be lab rats observing The Others
>>215867952I only realized when she showed the book
any pusy in the show? :p
>>215867888checked trips of truth but to offer a counterpoint Vince said 4 seasons would be what he wants in a perfect world, with so few character there have to be developments in the alien virus category. those developments could be as minute as >A cure is discovered by the end of season 1, new human characters are introduced with a cure, drama emerges naturally or as big as>Carol literally has to travel back in time to stop the aliens
>>215868017yo mamas
Can anyone explain how the radio waves are controlling everyone on the planet except for 12 people?
i hope the indian/pakistani family die.
>Carol discovers a cure while fucking Zosia>it's having a spergout at the exact same time they orgasm so the positive and negative energies balance each other out>now has to ponder the implications of this
>>215868036>>Carol literally has to travel back in time to stop the aliens
>>215867952I don't blame him, I also missed it
>>215868036I wonder if all four seasons will be the hive mind concept. Knowing Vince and how much he loved things like X Files and is leaning in on his time there here, I think esch season might explore a different concept.Serious how do you expand on "hive has taken over, only 13 normies are left and all but 1 of them are retarded" for 4 10 episode seasons?
>white woman ruins everything, the tv show
>>215867952one is clearly indian, the other is whitehow are these the same people?
>>215868548Carol is super based compared to the thirdies and chinks though
the show premise is interesting, but the main character is insufferable. i hope she changes in the next few episodes somehow or i shant be watching any longer
>>215868596I hope she becomes more hateful.
>>215867952I thought it was some random latina until Carol held up the book and that's when it clicked it was the woman from the plane
>>215868590how is she based at all? she is a middle aged alcoholic karen.Like the hive mind is completely harmless and answers all your questions, instead she gets emotional and gets drunkis she supposed to be a female rick from rick and morty?
>>215868640those are not the same person, the person from the plane is indian. she has brown skin and hair and is covered in filththe person you are looking at is white and has black hair
>>215867952she legit looks like a different person
>>215868643>literally all of humanity just got wiped out by weird alien bullshit>said weird alien bullshit also killed the love of your life and brushed it off as an oopsie and a necessary sacrifice>they want to lobotomize you too while shittily trying to gaslight you into how it's a good thing>"b-but you're supposed to not care because they're nice to you"
anilingus with rhea for the purpose of sexual pleasure
I bet some people who have seizures have a chance at becoming free
>>215868667Back to Twitter, tourist
>>215868713I wouldn't be surprised if the mass seizure is the emotional outburst causing some people to split and the hivemind forcefully reintegrating them again or something
>>215868702i didnt say you shouldnt care, i said there is no need to freak out like a woman when there is no need. The hive mind acts like a machine, you dont freak out at a machine
>>215868640>From Bestselling AuthorI applaud whoever made this completely embarrassing cover.
>>215868640is that supposed to be carol in the cover?
I've got that Pluriglow
I hope we get a scene where Carol gets mad but instead of everyone just shutting down for a bit they briefly revert back to their original selves. Like imagine Zosia yelling in Arabic and freaking out over waking up in a random white woman's bed.
>>215868806Have you seen the covers of woman books on booksites? They all look like that trash.They probably hired one of those guys to make that one.
>>215868073It doesn't affect carnivores or cannibals. You figure it out.
>>215868713I already said this.
>>215868806Have you never been to a book store or airport shop in you entire life?
>>215868277Would Vince dare go full on sci fi? I feel like he kinda threw the initial premise as quickly as possible to put it away and focus just on human relationships.
>i cant make a decision because it will upset one of you>well you not making a decision is upsetting me, now what bitch?>hivemind starts seizingthis is dumb
>>215867888yes, I also believe people are wasting their time expecting a detailed cosmic explanation or a technical solution to the invasion. the problem is that, unlike something like severance or the leftovers, where the mystery box doesn't get addressed and the writers focus almost completely on the character drama, this show has set up a premise that will be creating potential plotholes and inconsistencies regarding how the hivemind is keeping the world running, the decisions it has to take, the answers it provides to carol and what happens to all the survivors. this dynamic of carol and her alcoholism and anger issues, learning to coexist with the hivemind as a theme about depression and an idealized utopia where everyone can be happy if they renounce their selfish individuality, can't be a whole 4 seasons show because the writers will have to start addressing things like>what happens in the future when the entire humanity has been assimilated and no new humans are being born?Will the hivemind force certain males and females to breed? That would be contradictory to their directive of not harming anyone, and what would be their criteria to select the men and women? It sounds like a pr nightmare for the production if their logic was something like eugenics, I doubt the writers will want to get to that point, given that the ticking clock shown is counting days, so maybe this whole situation will completely change before a year passes in the story.
>>215868953I think he is far more interested in how Sci-Fi concepts effect people and altar the human experience, he probably has no interest in making Star Wars.
>>215868589>>215868640>>215868699>>215868667
>>215868957sounds like a typical woman moment
>>215868777if something killed literally everyone you've ever known and then showed up acting like your friend as if nothing happened it'd be weirder not to be pissed
>>215868967I have no idea how they will handle hive reproduction, because eugenics is exactly what it would logically be, and this is a no no in media, even if it's depicted as bad.
>>215868979star wars is literally just magic with a sci-fi coat of paint nothing about it is technical
>>215869023I mean drama vs spectacle.>characters reacting to and dealing with fantastical scenarios in human, grounded waysVS>WAAOOOWWW LOOK AT OUR SPECIAL EFFECTS BUDGET WAOOWWWW
>>215869020the hive mind only reproduces using the most fertile females available, 14 year old girls
>>215869020The hivemind isn't logical given its no kill policy and all the holes you can poke through it. It's just an allegory for socialism being flawed.
>>215868713When I first saw her having the seizure I thought it was gonna be some shit like the hivemind was putting her dead girlfriend’s mind inside the pirate woman
>>215868073I really hope everyone in these threads is just pretending to be retarded
why did carol have to step in front of the plane to stop it? when the hive mind already knew she wanted the girl back from her leaving the plane. Show cant go 2 episodes without stepping over its own premise
>>215869020You're forgetting that this is a Current Year production. They'll just show a bunch of random interracial couples and leave it at that.
>collective intelligence of all humans>has the emotional intelligence of a random 4chan retardis the hivemind supposed to be autistic or is it just so there is some hope for carol?
>>215869168but it wouldn't be that simple, you can show a perfectly balanced group of diverse men and women, but then, what about people with diseases and disabilities? Do they not get to reproduce? that'd be eugenics. And at what age do they do the forced impregnation? As soon as they're fertile? That would be pro pedo, at 18? And would be discriminatory to older women, the current apple tv demographic. if they open a can of worms like that, it will inevitably cause people on social media to turn against the show.
>>215869231I think the only way it can make all of humanity work together is by forcibly making everyone happy. Its why the collective has a seizure when there is immense negativity directed to it, it breaksntge link. Everyone is irrationally happy, so the collective is irrationally happy and positive. Killing some one or some thing would make members of the collective unhappy, which would break the psychic link and cause a mass seizure.
>>215867864pluribus is a character study of a schizo. it has every single element: flat affect and poverty of speech, belief they are victim of a grand conspiracy, delusions of persecution, getting messages through tv or radio. everything is in her mind. she's a kook.
>>215869324what i mean is everyone knows how to fly a plane but dont know how to handle an alcoholic middle aged woman grieving?This is knowledge that should be part of the hivemind, not just technical knowledge but diplomacy and manipulation, etc
>>215869324What do you suppose it shows humans in their minds to make them happy? Or is it like Futurama and a forcible rewiring of their minds?
>>215868967It's sad that this is where TV is at. You can't do any show now without a mystery box.
>>215869287>. if they open a can of worms like that, it will inevitably cause people on social media to turn against the show.The show will never cover any of these topics. This is a drama show, not a science fiction show. The wrong type of people on /tv/ are watching this and theyre only going to get more upset when they realize the show is never going to address any of the questions they want answered.
The working title for Wycaro 336 (which was the working title for Pluribus) was Hallucity 666.This show is going to be wildly different from what people are expecting.
>>215869153because she's a woman
So what's going to happen in the next episode
>>215869774>So what's going to happen in the next episodeYou expect a legitimate answer ?
>>215869774Carol get ipad
>>215869586those are not scifi topics tho, those are valid questions about this premise that the writers, characters and the audience can bring up, the point is that the writers will have to create a different setup eventually to avoid having to answer those in particular. You'd be right if the questions were about the universe, aliens or technology that doesn't exist.
>>215869774Its title is 'Grenade'.So maybe something will blow up after being tossed.
>>215869774If i had to guess carol is going to drink, bitch and moan, compare the hivemind to the patriarchy and kill 11 million more people
>>215869774Carol's gonna have another melty, and everyone will kvetch about it impotently while the hag scissors a seizing corpse to cure her loneliness for a blissful 2 minutes. The Indian woman's kid will tell Carol how much he liked it, and his mom will hang herself. It will reveal in season 3 that Carol put the hivemind up to it in a dastardly plan to get revenge on the Indian woman for chumping her out in front of her hive lover.
>>215869835At some point, it's no longer mystery box-type exposition, and simply becomes world building.
Carol accidentally ethnically cleanses entire parts of earth with her meltdowns
>>215869888bravo bince i cant wait for 6 seasons and a movie
>>215869774Carol is going to fall in love with Zosia, invite her inside, and then batter her and commit domestic violence so that she can resume her lesbian lifestyle and feel more at home
>>215869139they're not pretending to be retardedthey're pretending to be Actual Humans™ puzzling over the plot points of a show that they totally watched and are really invested indid you watch CURRENT_SHOW anon? I watched CURRENT_SHOW? Did anyone understand how the thing escaped the lab?
>>215867952>Face blindness, or prosopagnosia, is significantly more prevalent among individuals with autism, affecting their social interactions and communication.
So let me get this straight, after Jimmy goes to jail Kim becomes a lesbian, writes books, and then Earth gets taken over by an alien hivemind?>>215868967>Will the hivemind force certain males and females to breed? That would be contradictory to their directive of not harming anyone, and what would be their criteria to select the men and women?There's no "force," it's just the hivemind having sex with itself. No one would be harmed from its point of view. Each sex act would be the entirety of humanity having sex with itself for the goal of continuing humanity. As far as specifics, they probably won't cover it. I doubt the show will cover a long enough period of time where it would even become an issue.
>>215869408I've said this before and I'll keep saying it: The problem with a show with all of the greatest human minds put together is that all of the greatest human minds together did not write the show.
>>215869669>The working title for Wycaro 336 (which was the working title for Pluribus) was Hallucity 666.proof ?
>>215869982kek that makes me think can the hivemind learn to like receiving violence if it's mixed with pleasure? Do some experimenting Carol ffs, be proactive!
>>215866885This is what doesn't make sense to me: Vince is your stereotypical Hollywood leftard with a boutique ideology. Why would he write something that is deeply individualistic unless he actually plans to make the Plurb be good guys in the end or something.And this Reddit post (that was copy pasted from plebbit in case you people don't realize it) is the exact embodiment of the average first world city living retard that actually thinks the plurb is ok. Something's afoot. I am 90% sure the show will take a direction of making the plurb the good guy.
>fucking this hivemind chick>she squirts>go downstairs>my parents pissed their pants>go outside>neighborhood kids have pissed their pantsI don't feel so good hivebros
>>215869774missing for another week
>woman grabs rat injected with alien virus with no protection>pajeet sees coworker seizing after getting bitten by rat injected with alien virus and takes her out of the isolated roomArent these supposed to be smart people?
Carol having a melty making all the ayy lmaos have seizures only makes sense if either:A. The hivemind shit actually IS in Carol's head, they can read her mind but not control herB. It's fake. The hivemind knows the night of the infection was traumatic for Carol, so replicating it and pretending she is to blame for it is a way to manipulate her. I'm leaning towards B. Don't fall for their lies. Also the Jeeta is an ayy lmao.
>>215869855Carol is the metaphorical grenade
So does the hive share physical sensations or only thoughts? Even if physical sensations are processed by the brain, which I guess would imply that there is still individuality after all inside. Just doesn't seem feasible to be doing anything while also feeling 32 people dying across the world
spoilersthere is a literal grenade thrown next episode, spoiled in interviews
>>215870086if the hive are vegan can i still drink boobamilk from a hivemommy?!
>>215870147Punished Carol... I kneel
>>215870100Yeah, I liked the show but that shit was so contrived. >oh my coworker got exposed to an alien virus? better get her out of a controlled environment as quick as possible!Actual government virologists would not risk a containment breach like that.
>>215870086>your mom becomes part of the hivemind>fuck random girl>you are basically fucking your mom
>>215868967The Leftovers was only good for 1 season. The whole "yeah we are not gonna tell you what happened" is super lame, although the bit at the end where they show the opposite scenario where most people disappeared instead is pretty brutal.
>>215868643Question, no ill intention and I wont reply to it. You are a left winger right? Not a democrat or a liberal but an actual leftist, right?
>>215870173>Actual government virologists would not risk a containment breach like that.did you forget about the kungflu? those scientists were minorities as well, come to think of it...
>>215868713Everyone has seizures.
This isn't really a hivemind per se is it, it's more of a hijack, the creators of this virus are actively communicating through Zosia for example.Also a side note, when Zosia brings the water to Carol and she questions if there is something in it that will "make her like them" or whatever she says, the response is "where a few months away from figuring out how to do that"... the story is certainly still developing and there will be huge twists.
I see the hivemind as a modern allegory for social media and how most users on these platforms demand outliers to conform to their culture and etiquette. consider /tv/: if I don’t speak in your degenerate vernacular, I am called an AI jeet plebbitor. it is strangely cathartic to enjoy the pluribus and I hate you all
>>215870369>I hate you all
So why did she lick the donuts again?
>>215870475She has a sweet tooth but is on a diet
>>215870513Donuts aren't sweet
>>215870208filtered>>215870296I'm talking about the scientists at USAMRIID, not whatever backwater chink facility Covid came out of, and that's assuming it was negligence and not deliberate.
>I, for one, do not think the situation is as bad as you make it seem>All Indians have stopped shitting in the street, Uganadans are not circumcising infant women, Eastern europeans are no longer producing child porn
>>215870475To spread the virus. In the early spread of the virus they were doing it person to person. They didn't do chemtrails until the military figured out what they were and they were left with no choice. but to blanket the globe. This is all explicitly said in the show. Try watching without playing on your phone next time.
>>215868806It's not like she's actually proud of her books. She knows it's shitty pirate romance books that cat ladies obsess about.
>inb4 le epic twist where there actually is a hidden colony of human rebels, cliffhanger come back in season 2
Carol is a "Literally Me" tier character and I'm tired of pretending she isn't.
>It's a hamfisted allegory for AIThis will age well
>>215867952jesus....I was preparing food while watching the episode and I don't see how one could miss that.Her walking naked past the people who prepare her clothes and wig.
>>215870836This is basically a guarantee.No way can this show survive with the current barebones supporting cast. More people are going to have to be discovered
>>215867888establishing in-universe rules holds narrative weight, if all sci-fi elements are left in the background despite having a chokehold on the plot, the audience can be rugpulled and it won't even feel offensive. it will feel like nothing. we won't be invested. you can write the virus to do anything at any time, you can introduce new humans without telling us why they're immune and the audience reaction will always be "oh okay, I guess it can do that. I guess this is happening"
>>215870296Just take your bleach, anon.
>>215870949no thanks zion don
We have to make Sigma Female Carol memes to make sure the show becomes successful.
>>215867888Just like Severance>Starts as a sci-fi mystery>Turns into an interpersonal love drama with a sci-fi setting I do not care about Carol's moodswings or her feelings for Zosia. The show is about the virus
>time travel is the only way to fix itthis subject has been circling above Vince for a while now. Unleashed as he perfects the idea...
>>215871012it won't work because the people who watch those will side with the indian lady
>>215868640Why did they decide a Polish actress was actually Moroccan?
>>215871020>first thing we see is a timer ticking down>timer now goes upbros...
>>215871055She was either on holiday or based on the sackcloth, she was held hostage, probably in that order honestly.
>>215870097what's this guy's plan?
>>215871075I dont know, but him licking the lid of the can is a little suspect.
>>215871068>based on the sackcloth, she was held hostageThat's stupid, why would they put a hostage in sackcloth? I'm guessing she was on some kind of religious pilgrimage.
>>215871061fug i totally forgot about this
>>215871094Because it's hollywood, and they would put a hostage in sackcloth.
>>215871107>Wife not even dead a week>Fandom already shipping herShow some respect.
>>215871107>In the hive you can be together with your waifuImmunesisters I dont think I can resist them
good thing all the other English speakers who arent part of the hivemind represent all the different races (except black)
>>215871107shipfaggotry is basically the same thing as needing subway surfers or family guy clips on the side to be engaged with a show
>>215871189it's not a ship it's canyon
Is that man immoral for having a harem?
>humanity turns into a hivemind>they instantly become sex slaves for a nigger
/ss/?
kimmibus pls show feet
>>215871270i watched a reaction vid from two black guys and when Diabaté showed up they were like "MY MANS KNOW GAME ION I'D BE DOIN THE SAME THING"
>>215871290SAAAAAAR DO NOT REDEEM THAT WHITE WOMAN
>>215871270So business as usual for white women at least
>>215868699as is the case with all women wearing thick make up if you take it off.
>>215871068>sackclothThat’s just how Vince Gilligan thinks brown people dress like when left to their own devices
did they really get trump's plane for this?
big underlying socialism vibes from this show.and only one person dislikes it
>>215870916I'm more half-Carol, half-Diabetes
>>215871290/ss/'d by lezzo mommy!
>>215867864HD new poster
Anyone know what the Celtiberian word for "joining" is? Apparently there's hardly any surviving text of that language.
>>215871136If you accept the hivemind as being composed of the individuals it subsumed, then you have to also accept that "Helen" is still part of it even without her body.
>>215871482Helen is dead bro. Those thoughts of her was from when she was alive. Connecting to a hivemind doesnt make you immortal. The individual can still die.
>>215871515Everyone died when they were infected.
>>215871515there are no individuals anymore, she's just the memories of everyone so she's tecnically the same as everybody else
Pro-hiveminders believe the coin flip is real
This portion here of this scene is really stupid and they shouldn't have included it, for those who don't know the person on the left in the white shirt is tom schnauz, he was a writer on breaking bad, better call saul and now pluribus. he is wearing a shirt with his own face on it that says "look who's fifty" there is a whole group of people with him with the same shirt, looks like a stupid gimmick in action though.
>>215871169>(except black)Where do you think Mauritania is?
>>215871602so they were already hiveminded celebrating a birthday wearing the same shirt and then they were hiveminded for real when the planes dropped the virusi like it
>>215871602The in-universe explanation is pretty sensible, they're all the people at that guy's birthday party.
>>215871545>>215871563No. Helen is dead. She even said they were the memories of her when she joined them briefly before she died.
>>215871456A' ceangal is 'joining' in common Celtic language from that time period. But Celtiberian is infused with a form of Latin used by the northern Iberians, so it could be different. The show just wanted to sound smart.
>>215871604personally think he doesnt qualify
if the rat that started it was in the hivemind why didn't the virus connect all the animals too?
>>215871634But if her consciousness lives on in the hive, then is she really gone? That might create some kind of complex where a person might feel like they stand alone if not integrated. Wait a minute...BRAVO VINCE
If this is going to be anything like BCS, get ready for a soap opera snoozefest. Vince has been unable to recreate the lightning in a bottler that was BrBa.
>>215868337one angle could be the Stanford Prison Experiment where the hive tries to stop Carol in anything she's doing without causing harmanother could be the hedonist vs carol both with infinite resources at their exposal battling each other
>>215868879I would like if anyone cured retained the feelings and partial memories of what it felt like being part of the Others, permanently scarred. It would add another layer to "should this be cured?" if everyone ends up so fucked
>>215871723merely just carriers, like the black plague
So does this take place before or after Slipping Jimmy goes to prison?
>>215871753>But if her consciousness lives on in the hive, then is she really gone?No. Her consciousness doesnt live on though. Unless youre implying theres a little portal inside everyones head that takes everyones brain and puts it in an another dimension to form a super brain which is the hivemind made of 7 billion people and the portal is constantly open to stream information. But thats not what happens in the show.
reminder Carol is a lion
>>215871789no the rat clearly acted exactly like everyone else, it had the weird convulsion then woke up and instantly started infecting people. so clearly they can assimilate animals
If you trapped a bug person in a Faraday cage made of 3 foot thick lead, would you deactivate the link?Are we going to see any SCIENCE BITCH scenes?
>>215871835It might have just been a scared, angry rat. They are naturally awful creatures.
>>215867888isnt this show just a social commentary about how karens are ruining things for everyone? even the main character is named carol
they should show a hivemind newborn crawling out of his mom's vagina on its own and just walking away
>>215871634Everyone died when they were infected. The pile of meat that was formerly Helen also dying is another matter.
>>215871819But her memories and thoughts up until her mortal death reside in the hive. In essence, her consciousness is still there along anyone who has ever linked with the hive. Any given bee can pose as Helen at any moment and express all her thoughts, emotions, and knowledge as they would persist as long as the hive exists. If it could recreate her body somehow, she would be "alive" again, right?
>>215871835The infected can't harm people, but the rat did.
>>215871891If there was even a shread of honestly or dignity left in this gay fucking society, "karen" would be "shaniqua".
>>215871835>>215871931WE DON'T KNOW THERE ARE 2 EPISODESWE DON'T REALLY KNOW THE RULES YET THEY CAN THROW ANY CURVEBALL AT US
which one of the survivors do you think turns first? i don't know the person but we will likely see it in the season finale.
>>215871931it didn't have any human knowledge to decide that they shouldn't cause harm yet, it was just the rat's mind
>>215871956Carol
this show makes no sense because if humanity really could collectively agree with something we would have nuked India instantly
>>215871955There's also mentions of lion attacks after they were released from zoos, so clearly, animals are not integrated. The hivemind probably requires a double-digit IQ for entry.
is zosia like a super model? she's so pretty
>>215871990>rats are allowed but not lions
>>215871990>>215871828
>>215871961It's not a morality check. The hive physically can't intentionally harm another creature, or it spazzes out uncontrollably.
>>215871819What is your consciousness besides the way your neurons are arranged? If your memories are perfectly extracted so is that arrangement, therefore Helen is effectively alive in the hivemind; you could argue it's a different continuity and she died in some spiritual sense when her physical brain stopped firing (aka the hypothetical of you dying and being reborn upon teleportation because the continuity of your neural firings briefly ceases) but her consciousness still exists in the hive as it would if she didn't die. Every person in the hive is effectively dead because they're just a drop getting drowned out by a sea of consciousness anyways though imo
>>215872035>What is your consciousness besides the way your neurons are arranged?Your physical brain. Her brain is gone along with her body. Shes no longer alive.>>215872035>Every person in the hive is effectively dead because they're just a drop getting drowned out by a sea of consciousness anyways though imoI disagree. The individuals are still alive because theyre alive. They die when they die. They dont live on.
>the hivemind is veganthis would absolutely never have been an agreement considering the minds of all biologists and doctors and in planet are shared, our bodies cannot function correctly without the nutrients we get from animals, that's extremely unrealistic and Vince is retarded.
>>215872056'they' die but their consciousness is preserved, it's like if you uploaded someone into a computer.
>>215872062The animals are part of the hive mind dingus
>>215872072basically GITS 2nd Gig
>>215872072That would be a copy inside a computer and not the person. But Helen doesnt even exist in the hivemind anymore, pirate face literally said they were her memories and she died.
>>215872062I take it as evidence that there's more to it than the hive is currently letting on, if all people were averaged out it would obviously still eat meat so either the hivemind is overriding people rather than containing all of them or it has certain desires/behaviors hard-coded. The way it's so bad at understanding Carol and putting her at ease despite it mostly being common sense things most people could handle is also suspect
What’s the catch? From an objective moral point of view the hive mind is a good thing. It’s the end of all suffering. How is it bad? Provide an argument that doesn’t sound like a nigger made it.
>>215872088That's all the hivemind is. A library of the memories of all the humans it killed with a bunch of meat puppets it controls.
>>215872123if everyone is one then nobody is anybody, without ego we might as well be dead.
>>215872088That's not what was said at all.
>>215872123They're going to turn the Earth into a giant transmitter.
>>215872123purely rationally if you want to optimize pleasure (which isn't "objective" morals because those don't exist) then you're rightbut we're irrational and we like that life ebbs and flows more than being on heroin 24/7, the most logical thing to do if you don't want to buy into that collective delusion that we can create meaning in the madness is to kill yourself. it minimizes suffering. we continue to live because we feel like it, not because it's rational
>>215872145Your ego is just something you imagine. It’s not a tangible thing. It’s an impulse you evolved in order to survive. People would be much better off without it since it is the source of a lot of suffering.
>>215872115>so either the hivemind is overriding peopleThe virus makes people placid and nonviolent so they can function as a hivemind, that's why they're incapable of killing anything. Look at how they completely seize up when confronted with negative emotion.
>>215872152If you discovered how to start a fire, why wouldn’t you teach others how to do it?
>>215872088That's what a hivemind is. A copy of the thoughts and feelings of everything it assimilates. The assimilated don't continue on to have individual thoughts anymore. The physical bodies are irrelevant at that point because your data will continue to live on as long as the hive exists.
>>215872169but then there would be 0 reasons to exist at all, wo would simply stop reproducing and die
waiting for the next ep lol
BROOOOOWWWWSSSS I NEED THAT NEXT SET OF EPISODES AAAAAA
>>215872123no suffering = no joy because both are innately relative, you can't feel happy about something if that happiness is your baseline, it just becomes normal; as Carol put it everyone in the hive has been turned into "pod people" that don't really experience anything, and it's pretty easy to argue that the sheer mass of consciousnesses existing in a single being means all of the individuals composing it as effectively dead. What's the point of world peace if no one is there to experience it? Either:A. Everyone is in super giga-orgasm mode while subsumed by the hivemind and basically too emotionally numbed by it to experience anything in any way that matters (sort of implied by how the other immune act surrounding the way they've had it described to them)B. Everyone has melted into an amorphous mound of consciousness, they're essentially dead because they have no room for individual thought/experience amidst the sheer noise of itC. Some nightmarish duel combo
>>215872188No because some faggot is just going to steal it and redistribute it to lower lifeforms. Seriously, we have entire parables about this stuff.
>>215872123Their way of non-violence is directly contradictory with human survival and will extinct humanity within several decades.
>>215872265>within several decades.there aren't that many predators for billions of humans.
>>215872316It's not even a matter of predators, agriculture will fail if they can't kill pests, not to mention parasites in the human body.
If you weren't assimilated, what woman (or man) would you have pluribus send you to appease you
>>215872379your mom
>>215872316>billions of humans that need to ear>we can't eat animals>we can't farm without killing insects eating our vegetables that alone would already half our population in a less than a month
>>215872386technically you'd be fucking her (and your mom) either way, plus every indian male on the planet
>>215872316>no meat production>no pesticides>no mills or factories (pollution)>no drilling, fracking, or mining>no drug testingAnd that's not even getting into the weeds of eugenics. We'd be lucky to last another generation.
>>2158723798yo girls
>>215872407SAAAAAR PLS DO THE NEEDFUL
>>215872429...
>it’s the Jews
>>215872429Insane scenario. What if one of the people who was immune was a pedophile, would the hivemind deem it acceptable to allow him to abuse children?
lmao the little bitch has never even used ChatGPT before
>>215872505They're not real childrenhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQcNYb3DydA
Imagine the next episode is some black and white “Omaha Gene” timeskip episode
>>215872505If it makes him happy, I don't see why not.
>>215872505The hive wouldn't be able to stop him. Plus, it doesn't pass moral judgement.
>>215872505obviously yes because it's only "wrong" because society has the idea that children should remain oblivious of reproductive actions and everything else related to it, hivemind children would be no different from anybody else
>>215872559kys
>>215872505Children aren't physiologically developed for intercourse. It'd be like asking if the hivemind is okay with being stabbed.
>>215872583they literally are okay with being sex slaves and getting killed, they don't give a fuck
>>215872442>hello fellow kids
>They're all going to dieOr>They're going to find a cureOr>They're going to move a new planetOr>They'll learn to coexistOr>It was all a dreamBoring
>>215872609They just don't like being talked down to by someone who reminds them of Vince's mom.
>final episode is the cast congratulating and clapping around the protagonist after she accepts the hivemindBravo Vince.
>>215872682Pretty much what happened in BCS
>>215872682Good one reddit
https://youtu.be/MP9C84oYZ9k?si=nenXaXT7ZSsAZQ2iI just realized this teaser is probably from episode 3
>>215872682Can't wait for the sequel reboot, E Pluribus Unum: (YOU) Cannot Make This Up.
Let's predict the garbage Vince will throw when he runs out of ideas>20 minute cold open flashback with no dialogue about how Air Force One was procured>Carol, after binge drinking excessively, has an AA meeting with the hive mind members who all pretend to be alcoholics but show no actual empathy for the condition.>Some scene where she decides to freak out at the hive mind deliberately to stop them from doing something but it doesn't work and it is a highly telegraphed "oh shit" moment>Some elaborate contraption is built by the South American guy over multiple episodes, involving going to many different places and acting in a seemingly inexplicable way until the plan comes together. Every scene in the lead up to this is extremely slow and methodical with no dialogue or music.>Montages of "another day in the life" set to old timey music
>>215872740And also a screenshot from this teaser is on IMDB for episode 3
>>215872744We got the game/movie>Ex Machina>Deus Exfrom "Deus ex machina", so we should also get>Pluribus>Unumand>E
>I want Zosia to wear a pacifier and diaper
>>215872758I can hardly contain my excitement.
>>215872740Why is Carol such a tsundere?
LOOOOOL, They're bringing banks back this early.
THERE'S A UFO IN THE SEASON FINALE!!!!
>White angry dyke yells at, and kills millions of minorities K I N O White women keep winning but seriously, just kill Carol and save the human lives.
>>215872758Carol and her lesbian NPC both buy Chevy™ Camaros™ and rev them up in front of the pajeet family as they are shitting on the street
>>215872740ending of episode 2 is a roll-over into psychological manipulationwhy would this particular hive mind's unit give her that look when she's boarding airforce onecan't use violenceno other unit would have that effect after the "give her to me" conversation
>>215873052especially since it's been established thrice that Carol cannot help but try to save someone in need>her manager>dude hanging from the wire>the entire human race
Watching it nowWhat am I in for?
>this show was made by humans>AI BAD!
>>215873138The makings of kino.At the end of the first episode remind yourself this is Vince Gilligan
>>215872915Why does no one ever question where these leaks come from, certainly if someone is leaking a pic of jonathan banks in pluribus they are close to the production of the show
>the hivemind instantly kills you when you become connected to itUh... I think you guys are confusing it with The Thing
Pluribus is going to stand in Severance's shadow literally forever and it will be embarrassing on all ends
>>215872718>Carol rejects the hivemind and shatters it with her lesbian primal scream>Zosia washes up on the shore and Carol tries to strangle her
Less than 24 hours until the next episode
>>215873345It's actually airing in less than a month, you're welcome.
>>215873189It's got to be someone close.Banks is not mentioned anywhere as being in the show.But the picture in the post that you are replying to is from The Beast In Me, not Pluribus.Has there been any other evidence provided to suggest Banks in Pluribus?I mean, I don't doubt we may see a couple of Gilligan regulars.Also, how has no one noticed that Zosia is the thousand year old psycho vampire slut from True Blood that turned Jason Stackhouse into her little fucktoy?
What will be revealed when the layers of the hivemind are stripped away ?
He's literally me
Brilliant pilot, this show right here is gearing up for the best show of the year.
>>215873345I tought new episodes released on Friday?
>>215867952Missed that as well and wondered where the hell she was when Carol met all the non-hivemind people
>>215873461Pff i can't wait for the episode when Carol and Pirate Lady have hot, angry lesbian sex
I didn't realize Pirate Lady was Plane Lady until i read these threads, she looks completely different
>>215873535She was also water bottle and excavator lady too
>>215873535did you know she is the one that is with carol during the plane trip? blew my mind when i realized
>>215872758>Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul easter egg cameos>bonus points if Paul mouths the word "bitch"
She looks like Ian from Smosh when she made this face.
>>215872123>What’s the catch? From an objective moral point of view the hive mind is a good thing. It’s the end of all suffering. How is it bad? Provide an argument that doesn’t sound like a nigger made it.Theres literally nothing wrong with it.The only issue is that people didnt get a choice wether they wanted to be part of it not, they were all forced into it. Thats the problem.
series will end Mr. Beans Holiday style with all cast and crew from across the gilliverse singing "WE ARE PLURIBADSAUL" *stomp* *clap* "WE ARE PLURIBADSAUL"
>>215872201But we're talking about Helen who is dead. You can remember her all you want but she's dead.
This is the longest week ever waiting for more plurb. I wish I never started the damn show.
>americans falling asleep>"what's wrong with the hive mind" posters coming out like clockwork
>>215873665Those ARE the americans, retard..
>>215873651I actually love Mr Bean so if he showed up at the end of Pluribus I would honestly stand up and cheer
If you were not infected which actress would you have sex with first?
>>215873696Snood then Taylor Swift then Sweeney
>>215873693Hey, dickhead, I never said Mr. Bean would be in pluribus, read it again.
>>215873696Lol, why an actress, do you need to them to be convincing in some way, are you a little ashamed of something ?
>>215867864I like the characters t-b-h, they seem actually realistic as an average representation of their group.>african is a hedonistic sex pest rapist freak>white one is a seething foidslop romance novel (porn) writer karen, bossing everyone around>the mongolian and the chinese are completely mentally checked out bug people, blabbering about insignificant minutia>indian one is retarded, delusional and annoying>amerindian girl is actually gullable and scared, as a kid should be
>>215868036I have a feeling that they will find a cure at the end of the season but with unintented consequences.People become their old selves except they retain all the knowledge from the hive. Meaning criminals always get away with it
>>215873721you sound like a buttbothered nona desu.
inb4 johnny banks shows up and throws that shit back for a bit of fan service been waiting for that old fuck to stop teasing the fans
>>215873772incomprehensible gibberish, you're most likely going to be treated with heavy-duty benzodiazepines and tranquilizers, anti-psychotics for your hallucinations and agitation
>>215873696Actresses are low tier. Theres literally millions more attractive women around. I'd just start looking through social media to select the hottest and maybe dip into some OF/insta whores.
Did Helen die because of the bump?
>>215873863>hElEn IsNt DeAD ShE LiVeS oN In ThE HiVeMiNd
>>215873785>treated with heavy-duty benzodiazepines and tranquilizers, anti-psychotics for your hallucinations and agitationAwfully specific. Is that what they give you when you're having one of your femcel melties?
>>215873863Probably. Zosia said that almost a billion people died worldwide during the takeover. That seizure probably killed the vast majority of people in cars. Planes, helicopters, snowboarders, construction workers, hell, even people taking a bath would have drowned.An eighth of the world's population, poof.No telling how many were just genetically incompatible with the virus and died when exposed to it.
>>215873925You're actually hallucinating more than you could ever know.
>>215873949It's ok nona, i'm not here to judge you.
>>215870836This will 100% happen
they're saying episode 3 is filler
>>215870836The hivemind knows everyone on Earth though, so unless you're a total off-the grid hermit, how would you avoid being noticed?
>>215867952Imagine being this retarded...
>>215870065Apparently he's catholic which complicated things further.
>>215867888LET THE MYSTERY BEEEEE
New Carol
>>215872360>agriculture will fail if they can't kill pests,they can do hydroponics and use their gigabrain shit to figure the mass scale out.
>>215872915well apple needs to keep the engagement up. seehorn is not going to keep pulling audiences beyond the novelty of the pilot
>>215867864I haven’t watched it yet but is this just “Invasion of the AI body snatchers with neural link”?
>>215874580they don't need to do anything actuallyApple TV is basically the only streaming service not ran for profits, they are not even attempting to profit they're just trying to recoup a little bit of their losses. It's a glorified iPhone commercial, it's a money sink to have their name attached to cool shows
>>215867864Rhea would easily get a ton of younger chicks irl as a lesbian
>>215867864MC should've been a man
Just finished episode 2, I can already tell this is going to be gay and melodramatic.I miss scifi..
This is a pluribus board now
>>215872758>>20 minute cold open flashback with no dialogue about how Air Force One was procuredkino
>>215870836I don't think a whole colony of hidden rebels, but I do think theyre lying about the other immune people not speaking english.
>we can't hurt people>but we decided to accelerate teeheeNah, they're lying, if what they say is true, then their response would've been to let the military end them.
>>215874727then we'd all be calling him gay for not fucking his perfect waifu or making a harem like the black guy
>>215875105Nah, if he was the guy, the cuck ending of episode 2 would've been better.
>>215869231I mean if the hivemind includes autists/aspies/literal drooling retards is this really that surprising?
>>215868330kek
imagine you were immune to the virus but you were on a plane or in another situation where you life depends on someone when it happened. if almost a billion people died this must have happened to at least one immune person.
Hivemind says all forms of affection are welcome>what is affection without consent>what about all the hive people who don't want to get assfucked by wannabe ghadaffi>what happens if one's idea of affection is violenceI can't stop poking holes in this bros, it's akin to that argument about heaven being for psychos since it automatically assumes that you don't give a fuck about the people suffering in hell for eternity.
>>215867864I heckin love this television programmerino!
>>215875546I look like this and say this
>>215867952What I don't get is how this is supposed to happen in Tangiers, Morocco, but there's a truck called "Laiteries du Levant" (Levant's dairies). The Levant is the opposite side of the Mediterranean Sea. I thought this was Lebanon at first.
aaaaaand dead show
