Yes I WOULD have sex with the Plurbs.

I would request the hottest actresses and keep them for myself.
Them having the memories of family members does not make them those family members; they don't have their personalities.

>>215943753
The hottest actresses in MY opinion, not theirs.

I don't think Carol is completely immune.
How would she affect the hive if she was?
I think she was infected like everyone else and is part of the hive too, but at the same time she's disconnected and keeps her free will.
>>
>Paraguay guy shows up
>turns Carol straight
>>
>>215943780
can she affect it when she is completely alone? so far the hive reactions are while they are in her presence.

I like many kinds of women plus cute traps, but polygamy doesn't sit well with me.
I can't divide my love up between multiple people. It doesn't feel sincere.

But with the hivemind... it IS sincere. It is the same person in multiple bodies.
I dig it. I want to live in this world.

People live in far away places for a varitety of reasons from wanting to be away from the big city to because it's inherited family property, but none of these apply to the gestalt consciousness.
It has no reason to keep people living far away, and if anything would be building large commieblocks strategically placed in zones of distribution pathways.

The only way this could matter is if it separates her from the hive. (which is stupid, all you need to kill a virus is a bonk on the head?)
Otherwise, she's replaceable. She's nothing but another hair on the hivemind's head.

Is that the best allegory entire humanity could come up with? The difference is that a drowning person typically asks for help and knows they need help. So, the allegory doesn't work.

Its efficient in one case - if all people are in one place, ie working on something together

Plurbs isn't all of humanity. It's a single entity with all of humanity's knowledge. Basically ChatGPT - a large language model that trains on an enormous bank of big data. Are you also surprised when ChatGPT gives you dumbass answers despite having so much knowledge? Just because you have all the knowledge, doesn't mean you're equipped to make the best possible decisions with it.

A centralized distribution system is more efficient when majority of the demand is predictable for the hive and they have full control on the logistics. Also they arent creating new goods for consumption, they are purely consuming what has already been made, so they don't need to frequently bring goods from the source and distribute it world wide from and to different locations
>>
>>215944343
I am sure they would, they could always create more worker bees based on their requirements. Even a 5 year old can become very productive when they have sufficient motor skills and already have the knowledge of an adult

Gilligan explicitly saying he wanted to make a show for Rhea Seehorn is, damning.

That’s not vision for a world, that’s personal career curating.

When the premise you hijack for that purpose is a hive-mind psychological sci-fi juggernaut, and the result is "awkward encounters in a living room," the mismatch is grotesque.

It never did anything so blindly obedient for Carol to show that it would do anything. In fact it did lots of shit that made it seem like it could be dishonest.
If you thought it was 100 percent honest before this episode you basically guessed right and ignored a bunch of shit. It has nothing to do with media literacy. In fact, you should still have reservations, its way of thinking is alien and there's still a lot to understand.

The idea that they’re “saving it all” for a later mindfuck is the last refuge of people trying to give the show dignity it hasn’t yet earned.

If they had anything close to a big reveal, they would be paving the runway already.

$15m an episode is not "hang out in Carol’s house set again and do recurring awkward-sketch" money. It’s the kind of budget where, if the creators had any appetite for conceptual depth, you’d feel it leaking through the cracks even if they were deliberately pacing themselves.

>>215945143
It's all just words, you believe everything people tell you? Actions matter much more. When a manipulative person tells you they're going to do/did something you don't want, they're often hiding something much worse, or they're just telling you to convince you they're honest because they know they can't hide it. Carol can't know, and we can't know, just how earnest they are. That's the whole point.

I haven't seen the 'swallow a handful of pills' trope in a while (she does this on the plane). No one actually does that. At least she didn't chew them without water. That's worse.

But I absolutely love the show. Best show in a while. Vince never disappoints. That dude from the phone is for sure going to be calling her back. The Pluribus doesn't make such exciting phone calls and he's gonna get bored. Her knowing some Spanish is pretty awesome.

Most fictional shows use a fictional president. Hardly any shows or movies tried to get away with pretending the current sitting president is actually the president. Contact, The Jerky Boys....

Now i understand why they made the MC a white woman, its the only way to plausibly justify the MC not asking any fucking questions or acting logically in this situation.
She could be asking the hive mind to stop all research on how to make her join, or even to start research on how to free other people. Yet all she does is get drunk, bitch, and watch TV.

It's odd they didn't just make the Taffler guy president unless they were concerned about it not aligning with the real world (if Kamala won, having a guy as the fictional president with the initials DT would be mildly awkward)

Actually now that I think about it, it makes no damn sense.
The Plurbs with give this nigga a live grenade that can potentially kill her, even up to an actual nuclear bomb - but when it comes to joining the hive, they're all like "oh noooo, you're drowning. You just don't know it yet!"
It's not even like a self-preservation/reproduction thing, because they're willing to give her a nuclear bomb, that can potentially harm them.

How many people could an a bomb take out, couldn't even be 1% of the plurbs whole, Carol having a tantrum is more dangerous to them. And I presume they just didn't think they thought she would willingly put herself in harms way. I think the correct solution to the situation is use them to have the time of your life, convince them to tell you before they convert you so you can "enjoy one more night", then off yourself.
>>
Carol's just a run-of-the-mill miserable lesbian who thinks her pain is unique. Her attitude might piss me off less when they start showing uninfected individuals who share her sentiment. Say what you will about individuality, but humanity becoming a hivemind that practically achieves the end goal of singularity only makes sense.

Probably what I would have done.

They don't seem to do anything about Carol's genocide tantrums, and are just willing to hand out dangerous things.
They just don't seem to have any self preservation in general.
So I think it's kinda weird that they draw the line on "not joining the hive."

Also, I don't think they are able to "presume" anything considering they can't even tell whether she is being sarcastic or not, which is pretty damning of their social capabilities.

I normally don't post in this shithole, but have you ever considered that actually we are already a "hive mind" in the sense that just like trees we have roots that somehow touch each other, humanity as such is far more productive than it is if it would be a hivemind, because mutations are what caused humanity to even "advance" technologically.

Pythagoras was a complete weirdo, if he were "connected" to a hivemind, the whole Hivemind would suddenly turn shizo and incapable of even going forward.

True. But I think most humans would have approached it a bit differently. Probably tried to socialize first or at least talk.

Either way Carol realizes her sacred individualism lacks value without the desire and capacity to uplift others and consequently her own experience is shallow and miserable

unless they managed to clear some massive warehouse somewhere with industrial refrigerators, it would still be best to just leave everything in the grocery stores refrigerators to keep it from spoiling.

meat is the most energy and protein dense food. the hivemind won't kill animals, but they never said they wouldn't eat it. At this point, meat is an extremely valuable finite resource that is quickly dwindling. there's a large incentive to preserve and ration it out equally to workers.

Who cares about Carol, this isn't about Carol

Anyway, the "hive mind", if Vince is a good writer, will soon turn the planet into a stagnant shithole where things don't work anymore, like Rhodesia after evil white man left.

Imagine your whole life is a schizo-autistic nightmare and out of all of that mental hellscape chaos you manage to invent a thing that just improves normies lives and they hate you the entire time you're alive

Those things are some rather rough and violent sex toys.
I don't mean "Haha, it's fun!" I mean it's bruising and possibly hospital.
They can break bones or cause internal bleeding if misused.
Make jokes about jackhammers. Those fucking things are rechargeable jackhammers.
If you are using them to masturbate, you are a brave individual. It would be akin to sticking your dick in a pressure washer.

including your daughters, sisters, cousins, and mom? based and incestpilled

one guy I went to high school with used to fuck his twin sister most nights after their parents went to sleep. they lived together in college and I truly believe they were in love and would have got married if they could have. she would give him blowjobs and handjobs since they were 12, and full on fucking since 13 or 14. their parents still have no idea, lmao.

the inescapable primal human need to be accepted by the same society that rejects you because they are retarded

and society wonders why the same men and high IQ individuals are committing suicide at staggering rates

>we would move heaven and earth for you to be happy
But they're firstly assuming that her happiness is something that's possible to achieve, and secondly assuming that she's acting towards her own interests.

Seeing as the state of the world makes her unhappy, already there they've broken their own guidelines, and secondly, if they're breaking their own guidelines, to keep the world as they want it, at the cost of her happiness, that must mean that they believe she would be happier in their system, which would mean her current happiness is irrelevant, as her assimilation would be all they need to aim for.

So they would need to differentiate between current happiness to allow for the pursuit of it down the road.
So if Carol wants a nuclear bomb now, that would put her future happiness at risk, they should decline.

If they don't decline, then the aliens are effectively saying that they don't care about her future happiness and/or that their system wouldn't be the ultimate aim to make her happy.

The show is illogical.
