Season 1 finale is OUT NOW!Previous: >>216824576
nothing happens
If Carol only dumped the plurb because they had agency and she couldn't control themDoes that make her much rapey-er than Diabetes
So what's the consensus? You guys still hatr this or is it kino now?
I wish Karolina wasn't bogged...And I wish Rhea wasn't 90 years old...
>>216828929You sure about that, chuddie?
Why does she need an atom bomb?
Carol know the plurbs are controlling the people's bodies, but she's still raping them. At least Diabate believes they're consenting.
>it's a filler seasonBravo Vince
Why did Vince insist on having the lovely Rhea Seehorn play the worst main character ever created
>>216828896>how is doing things that make people happy NOT evil manipulation?>there's simply no way anyone would do anything to make another person happier or more comfortable simply out of love or kindnessI pity you.You must be so miserable.That goes for everyone still trying to find some kind of ulterior motive or sinister secret to the Plurb. You're sick people that need counseling.
>>216828951See >>216828894
>>216828951shall not be infringed, libtard
>>216828918>The show isn't trying to fucking trick you and you're meant to take things at face value.Fucktard
>>216828929You didn't spoil that properly anon. Thanks for spoiling season 2, 3 & 4. Fag.
>>216828951leverage
>>216828947yeah imagine if this was made even like, 10 years ago and was as sensual and lewd as the lesbo movie with Weisz and McAdams
>>216828941Oh you already said what I said. Yeah, Carol is worse. She was so righteous and judgmental about it too.
>>216828979>NO YOU DON'T GET IT THEY CAN TOTALLY LIE AND ARE EVIL JUST IGNORE THE ENTIRE SHOWI wish you had died in the jungle Manousos
Still don't get why Polish Zosia was in the middle of fucking Morocco dressed in rags
BASED Libertarian Carol exercising her rights to bear nuclear arms and have gay sex
>>216828951Vince like to add random shit and write it into the story when he finds a good use for it.He literally admitted that he did this with the machine gun Walt had in Breaking Bad.
>>216828929I'm pretty sure there was a hint of happening by the end of the episode.>>216828944Still kino.>>216828951To cook meth more effectively.>>216828954They both were manipulated by the same entity, so it's the same result, I wouldn't expect something different from the hive.
>>216828983can't she just ask them to destroy the eggs?
>>216829004/OURFUCKINGGUY/
>>216829004Manousos glazing is exactly like Rorschach glazing.I don't want anyone that has a good thing to say about this nutbar to be anywhere near my person, ever, for any reason.
Manipulation doesn't require lying.The plurbs can use the most convincing body out of the hivemind to talk to an immune individual. Do you really think Carol would've fallen in love with a male plurb body?
Biggest nothingburger in history?
>>216829008Vince didn't write this, they said on the podcast that they were making this episode and Apple rejected the original ending because it was too boring, Bravo Boy got big dicked by Tim "Homo" Cook
RANK EM:1: The Gap2: We Is Us 3: HDP4:Pirate Lady5: Please Carol6: Got Milk7: Grenade (Significant drop in quality here)8: La Chica o El Mundo9: Charm offensive
>>216829016no point, they already started cultivating the stem cells (they are more unstable than regular ones)now if she says “you try to turn me or manousos and ill suicide us both with an a-bomb” that’s leverage
>>216829004He's the real protagonist, the man of action. This show is like if Skylar had 90% of the screentime in Breaking Bad.
That poor lamb didn't want Kusimayu to leave :(
>>216829016All their little rules go out the window when it comes to their "biological imperative".
>>216829016probably not in their interest, THEIR IMPERATIVE, you know?
>>216829029Weak bait.
>>216829038>falling in love is manipulationI don't know how many times I can say "I pity your inability to accept the idea of doing something out of love" before the words cease to have any meaningSeek therapy
>>216829029>nooo you cant like this cool character hes supposed to be le bad wheres your hecking media literacy chud
how many people did mr paraguay kill with those two spergouts then
Plurbunny
>>216828972>That goes for everyone still trying to find some kind of ulterior motive or sinister secret to the Plurb. You're sick people that need counseling.Even if you take everything at face value, the plurbs are basically people saying "you should become trans you will be happier with your body" to a normal person that clearly doesn't want that, and even if they promised they wouldn't cut your balls while you sleep, they're gonna find a way to chop off your dick off without your consent via a gaseous substance.That's still manipulative and evil, even at face value.
>>216829077>>216829071
>>216829085He warned them beforehand, which is more than Carol ever thought to do.
>>216829085I believe 0 since he told them it was gonna happen before shouting.
On the one hand it's shitty that Carol only came around when she found out she would be turned and couldn't spend the rest of her life living it up with her chaperone/wifey, on the other hand Manousos thinks the human race is better off dead if he can't cure them.
>>216829071Yeah, that's nice buddy, stay the fuck away from me.>>216829077You can like violent paranoid lunatics and pretend they're virtuous heroes all you like.Just do it over where I know you're not going to stab me.
>>216828951For dropping it on Laxmi if she calls one more fucking time.
>>216828944I thought it was kino for 8.75 episodes and now I hate it and feel manipulated.
>>216829085probably less than carol.if you watched the show you realized zosia prepared by getting in a less lethal position so she can spazz out safely.
>>216829085Couple Hitlers worth
>>216829091>I'm a weirdo that needs therapy?>ok how about if I throw some gay panic idpol crap in there too!Fuck's sake, man. Get help.
I thought this episode was going to be christmas themedWasn't there a preview of Carol with a bunch of plurbed carol singersWhere did that come from
>>216829111If Vince is a true chuddie he knows India must get nuked.
I am not pleased
>>216828972Wow gents, we have an honest to goodness member of a hivemind in this very thread. Quick, some scream at it.
>>216829133That was shot just for a promo, she was wearing the outfit she wore in the first ep.
>>216829030oh, she's literally the age Rhea was when she was Kimthat's why she mogs Grandma Rhea so fucking hardman, vince, I know you're old, but old women being sexy is a fake meme, you got too big for your britches trying to goon over rhea this far into the game, she's a fucking grandma now, 43 is one thing, 53 is insane, this is not a bravo vince moment, you flew too close to the sun
>>216829111I hope her joined son dies. That would make her feel something different for a change.
Pluribussy
>>216829074The objective is to get them to consent to the plurbing they have already rejected. Have you ever heard of the expression, "No means no"?
>>216829100>>216829114okay but there surely would have been some who wouldn't have been able to in time
>>2168290451: We is us2: Pirate lady3: La chica o El mundo4: Please carol5: HDP6: charm offensive7: got milk8: grenade 9: the gap
>>216828972The only thing evil they want to do is plurb human beings. Aside form that they are benevolent by human standards.
>>216829129If you see anything as identity politics and not as an analogy, you are the one that has a problem.Confront the argument instead of appealing to "Urgh fucks sake get help" troon.
What if when someone is unplurbed they retain all the memories and skills they borrowed from other individuals? IE; unplurbed Zosia could still speak English and fly a helicopter since she accessed that information. After unplurbing the world the end result is a society of complete super geniuses. The plurb signal is the great filter for intelligent life, overcome it and flourish or perish
kinda surprised laxmi didn't end up joining
>>216829045Way too much work.
>Back away from the plot advancement. Now.
>>216829156>look reddit i posted it again
>>216829158>the objectiveIs to make them happy.Because they love them.Nothing more and nothing less.This is explicit. Stated by the Plurb. You must accept it as true.They say up-front that this desire extends to them joining the hivemind. That has nothing to do with keeping them happy in the meantime.I'm sorry, anon, you're just an angry and stupid and suspicious person. It's a shame you don't know what love is.
What does he know that Carol does not?
>>216829160Maybe if there were some individuals on top of a tower(?), which I think would be unlikely, Zosia had like 20 seconds to prepare before she started seizing. I think this ought to be enough.
>>216829211How to be likable
>>216829167>it's not idpol it's just an analogy YOU FUCKING TROONlollmaogo back, dipshit
>>216829101The human race IS better off dead if they can't be turned. Their only stated goal is to infect the rest of the universe with an individuality-destroying space virus.
>>216829206And how do you make them happy? By plurbing them despite them not wanting to be plurbed
>>216829234Yes, I said that already.Do try to keep up.
>>216829220>ESL>likableYou wish, Suksheit
>>216829103You need more practice, zoomer glowie. Quit trying to act holier than thou. You wished death on Manousos simply for not conforming with Rightthink. You're the psychotic freak here. Also Ozymandias is a mass murderer and Rorschach is based.
>>216829222This explains why you think this series is well written
>white woman completely gives up and becomes domesticatedBRAVO VINCE
They love Manny now on the other site
>>216829226That's like saying you should kill every mentally handicapped person.
>>216829248I wish you luck with your oppositional defiant disorder
>>216829260The show would be better if he was the protagonist and Diabetes was his (uninfected) antagonist
>>216829206You are not a masterbaiter, faggot. Just shut up now.
>>216829004snap, snap
>>216828917just 10 minutes into Manusos introduction and the show is already 200 times better
>>216828972No, there is no ulterior motive. We know their motives>get all to join>send out the code>repeatOnce all join and the message is sent, they have no goals. They can't survive and have nothing to live for. So the result is the end of human life.
Credits song was kino, added to my playlist.
>>216828951manousos is obsessed with the radio signal and in the scene before this manousos is looking at a book about radio waves and shit. the nuke is to create an EMP
>>216828947>And I wish Rhea wasn't 90 years old...she's hard to look at
>>216829314>So the result is the end of human life.Some will stay alive to maintain the antenna.
>>216829302
>>216829266If the handicapped person wants to destroy my individuality and is willing to stop at nothing to do so, then perhaps yes, they need to die. Or at the very least be returned back to being non-handicapped. Which as the handicapped person stated while they were in the hospital, is absolutely possible and they refuse to tell you how so they can infect the universe with an individuality-destroying space virus.
"Pluribussy got me acting unwise"Carol this entire episode
The nuke is so that Menopause can trigger it if the Plurbs ever dare convert Carol
>>216829335This. I wish they would have casted Carol to be a 20 something tomboy instead.
>>216829269How do boots taste, exactly? You must love the taste of licking them at this point, communist tranny piece of trash.
To me, the hivemind's objective is to get rid of the unjoined, so they can continue their virus spreading business. I thought it was obvious, isn't it?
I just finished the latest episode.Well, what a disappointment! 6/10 and closer to 5 to be honest with you my family.
>>216829370>castedOpinion disregarded.
>>216829335That haircut is just unflattering.
>>216829327Manousos didn't know about the nuke, though. He was studying that stuff before Carol surprised him with a nuke.
>Is there a way to reverse this? Keep in mind I am very unstable and an answer I don't like could kill ten more hitlers worth of people>"..."CLEARLY THIS MEANS IT CAN BE REVERSED>We love you Carol>We're happier than we've ever been, Carol>Everyone that joined is in here and happy and loves you Carol.I DON'T GET IT WHAT COULD THIS MEAN IS THIS MANIPULATION!?!?!?!?!?
>>216829335guys guys
>Manousos burned his car, his most prized possession, rather than letting the plurb have it>Manousos wont accept anything that he views as stolen >Manousos believes the plurb stole the entire world's souls>Carol just gave him access to an atom bomb
>>216829371who hurt you?
>>216829372Only the troll pretending to be holier than thou would differ with you. The plurb took away that girl's love for her baby goat. They are evil.
>the woman protagonist behaved like a real womanBravo Vince
>>216829342Stay alive for how long? Even if they have enough food, less than a century
>>216829389carol inferred/asked about electronic signals from seeing manousos inducing the seizure. this is a reference to her learning you can just ask them things, something she reiterated in the episode
>>216829376Gotta agree. I expected to be thoroughly Vinced but I really feel like I got Gilliganed.
>next season episode 1 >Carol and Manu try to catch a plurb
>>216829423Why do you say that? Is the assumption that they won't reproduce? I don't seen why they wouldn't.
is Carol autistic?she doesn't seem to understand non-verbal communication
>>216829395You got pwned son. There is absolutely a way to reverse the plurbing. The show spells that out so obviously even a retard like you should know that C-A-T spells cat.
This show's missing>a radicalized immune that wants to help plurbing the world and is aware that there are humans who want to be immunized and believes that he can fill the blindspot of the plurbs being unable to lie or harm the other humans (imagine just being able to send a guy to subdue and extract the stem cells out of the other immunes) until he is the final immune, at which point he'll willingly join the hivemind.>an entire immune haplogroup in like Africa or Asia>a general majority of immune characters that want to deplurb the world and get their loved ones back (WHY ARE THEY ALL LIKE ZAXMI?)Who thought "average 3 characters per episode" was enough for a longform tv show? It just needs more characters period.
>>216829442That'd be really easy>im sorry Zosia I miss you come back I love you be my plurb wife!>SIKE BITCH
>>216829450>her independent woman mode got triggered the moment a competent man told her what to doVince knows how to write a bitch. Bravo.
>>216829442I've been here before...
>>216828917Based
>>216829424I don't know. This show is for midwits, and Manousos asked "what is that." I think the average midwit knowing that a nuke will cause EMP is asking too much from this writers room. But I could totally be wrong.
>>216829449Yes that was my assumption and I don't even know why
>>216829463>radicalized immune that wants to help plurbing the worldKoumba Diabaté? Also if you are not making an effort of saving said people, you are in fact helping them.
i have a little shortwave radio now i'm tempted to leave it 8.613 maybe vince is playing music on it at 4 am
>>216829484Isn't it kind of like that Futurama episode about the Matrix though? >"Wouldn't it take more energy to keep them alive than they could possibly produce"An offspring is just another mouth to feed
Holy fuck Carol is stupid, what an awful finale
Why is Vince trying to be the new tarantino?
>>216829468>reveal some answersWhat answers do you people need?What don't you already get?>>216829469>basedstupid as fuck in multiple waysI want to strangle every mental midget posting MANOUSOS SPITTING BARS FIRE EMOJI FIRE EMOJI
If Vince made this show for Rhea, why did he have her be upstaged by Manousos in the finale of her own show?
>>216829502are you close to new mexico?
You think the hive has contingency plans in place by now for getting yelled at? Like "here they go again" and everyone starts lying down and stopping anything they might be doing that could end badly.A hivemind member is flying supplies from point a to b and they have to be ready to hit the autopilot when carol starts to open her mouth.
>>216829463>an entire immune haplogroup in like Africa or AsiaIf this was the case instead of what we got, It’d be really funny if it was the Abos. They’re all immune, but they’re of no use to carol at all because they just huff petrol all day
it's so funny seeing carol deal with a bigger asshole than her
>>216829537It'd have to be a race that's as far removed from the human genome as possible, so It'd likely be abbos, some uncontacted tribe, or the most mulatto of amerimutts
>>216829519not an argument
>>216829533maybe
>>216829534It doesn't matter how well they prepare, a large amount of people will die from the seizing.
>>216829509If they were capable of some kind of voluntary culling of billions, they could feed many many generations.
The baby goat didn't want to be abandoned :(
>Hey Carol, the resources of the entire world are at your feet. Any request you can think of we are obliged to honor.>One ice cold soda and some fireworks pleaseBravo Vince. Nice high concept TV show you got there.
are there any youtube channels that aren't unbearable shovelware ai-generated normalfag slop and that are discussing pluribus.
>>216829509The Matrix is fucking stupid, but it's explained that the energy generation is just a happy side effect of keeping the human race from going extinct. The machines are actively sparing humanity from the apocalypse humanity caused.
What the hell was that greenscreen shit when they were fighting over the phone right by the street drain? Didn't they build that whole cul-de-sac from thin air just for the show?
>>216829409>Carol gets plurbed>Manousos unleashes nuclear hellfire upon the world>cut to credits B R A V O
>show centered around a lesbian woman>two most interesting characters are men
>>216829589that part really got mepoor goat...
>>216829568keep us updated, I don't think people far from it would receive that transmission.
Holy shit bros I thought it was a joke but no really nothing happened are you fucking kidding me"nothing happens the end wait 3 years for season 2"TV is not a sustainable medium it's so fucking over bros I'm going back to /lit/
>>216829601I'm legit surprised not a single one of the GoT/asoiaf youtubers didn't go all in on this show when all of Gurm's other books are about alien hiveminds
>>216829589And yet the plurb took away her love for the baby goat, leaving it to get eaten by jaguars. But no, the plurb isn't evil at all. Just listen to what they say and don't think about anything at all!
>>216829484That's my assumption too, because they don't seem to value their own existence beyond the need to spread the infection. I believe their plan is to use all the available resources to build several self-sustaining antennae, after which their objective is complete and they are happy to just die.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
>>216828951Probably gonna drop it on whatever facility is using her eggs for research
>Carol figures out midway through episode 8 that the Plurbs are entertaining her whims to waste her time>spend an other episode to relearn that lessonBRAVO VINCE
>>216829620It was your fault for watching more than two episodes and not realizing it was about a lesbian going to therapy instead of war of the worlds
>>216829604I'm just thinking in terms of the plurb voluntarily reproducing.
>>216829004>>216829191>>216829211>>216829257>>216829304>>216829450>woman behaves like a dumb emotional woman>man behaves like a man who wants to get shit done no matter whatBRAVO VINCE, seriously
>>216829468even FROM is more eventful compared to Pluribus
>>216829639seriouslyShe's legitimately fucking retarded and I don't understand a single person who is on her side. She's the same exact thing as the Las Vegas guy just fucking any body they can throw at him
I love Mounousousous's voice
I’ve pissed and moaned about this show for the whole first season but that ep was kino and Manousos has unbelievable aura. It even made me okay with that absolute Reddit s o y face ending. Manousos is going to save the world and fuck Carol straight
oh no he di-in't
If all but one plurb dies do they still have all the knowledge and memories?
i broke my goy
What happens if you put a plurb inside Chuck's house?
>>216829684please master let me be it's not shabbos yes
So what now? We wait a fucking year?
>>216829634Please spoiler tag hivephobic posts
>Koumba>already knows everything >knows how to fix the world>doesn't want to because why would he?>why are you driving a police car?>Carol>knows a few things>don't know if want to fix the world>why are you driving around in an ambulanceBravo
>>216828941Also, when Carol asked about Zosia's dead ex, she referred to them as "them" which means that she has considered the possibility that human Zosia's ex was a man. But she didn't ask to confirm it outright because then she would've had to confront the possibility that Zosia was straight and that she was forcing a straight woman into having lesbian sex.
Koumba is the smartest, sanest, and kindest of the immune. He is the true hero of the story and I am not kidding. He is the light.Manousos is an evil, hateful, monstrous person that will cause much more suffering before he is finally disposed of. He is the dark.Carol is just kind of dumb and selfish, caring more about her own immediate needs than anything else. She is the grey.
>>216829713>nigger>lightStopped reading here
>>216829674>Manousos is going to save the world and fuck Carol straightWere you one of the idiots who thought that Syril was gonna get a happy ending on Andor just because he was /literallyme/? I called that shit from downtown. No imperial bootlicker on my fucking Star Wars isn't gonna get capped by an angry Frenchman. Also Andor fucking ruled compared to this shit. Robots using people as human shields, deadly hospital infiltration, bunch of protesters getting whomped by imperial droids. Shit was cash
>>216829589>>216829614>>216829626This was pretty significant, the plurbs just don't give a single shit about anything despite seeming extremely nice, literally leaving all those animals to just die, especially the baby goatI can tell this show is an allegory of AI, I can see it now, thanks Vince
>>216829703No refunds!
>>216829662meat and potatoes
>>216829713I can't believe there are actual women on /tv/
>>216829703>A yearI WISH. Probably 2 if we're lucky.
>>216829662It’s almost like Vince is trying to tell us that a homo woman isn’t as logical and smart as a heterosexual alpha male. BASED.
>>216828917wait, this is a yuri?
Manousos will do to Carol what the conversion camp couldn't
>>216829738If we're lucky they'd make us wait 640 light years.
>>216829681ah ah ah! you didn't say the magic word!
>>216829718Evil angry that they aren't just considered good because they would have to actually BE good.
>>216829633That's what I thought, however if they need another generation then they need food. The only way I can think of getting around that is if they'd commit suicide to feed the rest.
>>216829757Light year is a measure of distance not time.
>>216829008In fairness if I found an LMG I'd absolutely go hang onto it without anything in particular in mind, just keeping it around for the day it might be useful.
>>216829713Manousos is the only one that understands the true meaning of the blob as an invader and enemykoumba will be persuaded to assimilate once he's old and can no longer get erect for plurbs
>>216829703it will be two because this is the new normalhell fucking Severance is going to take all of 2026 to film Season 3 which probably means that won't even be back until the end of 2027
>>216829773>Manousos is the only one that understands the true meaning of the blob as an invader and enemySaid like a true psychopath
>>216829745That's all it is
>>216829713Kak fucking Diabetes is cavorting and who knows what else with literal soulless undead zombies just because they vocalize about "happiness."
>>216829745Generic middle aged loser foid dyke shit that is like...every single streaming show released now.Even has a dyke rape of a straight woman that's "The good kind of rape" that's just treated as a good thing.
>>216829789The plurbs aren't human.
>>216829713Why are people thinking that Manousos is evil? I don’t blame him for doing anything he has done thus far.>Bu.. But… he wants to kill all the Plurbs!Yeah? Good. Humanity would be better off dead than as a hivemind. Also, a civilization from another planet will be spared the tragedy humanity experienced. TOTAL PLURB DEATH.
>>216829789What the fuck are you talking about you onions faggot
>>216829789>EAT ME BLOB! EAT ME IF IT MAKES YOU HAPPY, BLOB!Kek nice bait
>>216829759PLEASEGODDAMMIT I HATE THIS HIVEMIND CRAP
>no one asked the plurb to genetically engineer thicc catgirl baddies with an insatiable lust for human cock>not even Koumba, the shy shut in nerd turned playboy fantasy reveller Unrealistic
>>216828951She doesn't It's just a callback supposed to make you basedface, but when you look at it with any level of scrutiny you realize that nothing fucking happened
>>216829810It's one troll, he is just being contrarian for kicks. Everyone knows Manousos is Lawful Good.
>>216829830see:>>216829830Even the women he gets are all mid and in their 30's and up. It's not for males.
so what's the final tally?
>>216829810i think Carol in her typical dumb way misunderstood Manuososhe doesn't want to physically kill the humans, he wants to kill the virus that bodysnatched themas proven by his attempt to cure that guy with his radio frequency science
>>216829769If we're lucky they'll stream it from 640 light years away so we don't have to watch the rest of this crap
>>216829800That is a good thing though?
>>216829854>phoneposting zoomeroppinion disregarded
>>216829101He is literally correctIf they achieve their goal of building the satellite, MORE ayys will eventually get MINDRAPED by plurb
What if the Borg were actually happier than the TNG crew all along? That's it, that's the show. There I just saved you 7 hours of meandering bullshit.
>>216829047I can't believe nobody else realized that the atom bomb is simply so she can kill herself swiftly if they don't figure out the cure in time
Brb, gonna plurb with some friends

>>216829878seizure
>>216829876callback to Golden Girls, bravo
>>216828917I HATE CAROL STURKA SO FUCKING MUCH. Vince spent these almost 18 years reading and hearing and seeing how much people hated Skyler. And the conclusion he came, as the great feminist ally he is, is that he should make a show with a woman 10 times worse than Skyler as the protagonist. I cannot under overstate how much I hate this character. Carol has NO redeeming qualities. Do you understand that? The protagonist of a billion dollar production has ZERO good qualities. The damage The Last Jedi did to media production is immeasurable. Ever since then, it is seen as a "win" for the director if he makes a shitty show with shitty characters because apparently being awful and frustrating in every regard is a measure of how "real" he is. And where the FUCK is Diabetes with a snowboard?
>CAROL SHOTGUNS HER WAY BACK INTO THE HOUSE>MANOUSOS IS STUNNED>QUIT SCIENCING, MY SCISSOR-PARTNER IS UNCONSCIOUS YOU MONSTER>BUT CAROL, I AM SIMPLY TRYING TO DRIVE THE DEVIL OUT OF THIS MAN, HE DESERVES TO HAVE HIS LIFE BACK>SHUT UP MANOUSOS I WILL TOTALLY SHOOT YOU BECAUSE IM ADDICTED TO PLURIBUSSY bravovince
>>216828917I'm going to miss shitposting with you guys about the plurbs
>>216829876still would
>>216829206>you must accept what the plurb says as true because they say so. They cant lieYou dumb fucking retard, if I were the plurb I would deliberately tell the truth about everything with the sole exception of "we need your consent to plurb you"I would lie about that to deliberately disarm them because theyll think it's true because everything else isWhere was the consent for the rest of the planet, you dumbass
>>216828966Honestly, morally bankrupt girlboss seems to be the new standard Hollywood archetype.
>>216829834Nah, I saw some gay ass redditors say he is evil unironically. >>216829858Yes, he ultimately wants to save and cure everyone. If he can’t, he wouldn’t want humanity to continue. I frankly agree with him.
that plurbussy so good it got carol acting crazyshe was such a dumb lezbo this episode, she BROKE BAD see what I did there. Carol only slightly better than Diabetes in that regard, she didn't care about the others consent when it was fingerbang time. NOOO MY PLURB GF!!! kekManusos CHAD will save the day BRAVO VINCEnow to wait 2 years for season 2
>feel like the ending was predictableMaybe it's our fault, with all of the speculation we're already to expect everything. Have you guys ever wondered if this place doesn't exist or if fleddit doesn't exist would we have been more surprised? Like you sit down each week to watch an episode, then maybe have some watercooler talk about things we noticed in the episode, instead of these never ending General threads, would the twist make more sense?
>>216829876it really do be like that
>>216829905One more Pluribussy for the road?
>>216829901it's okeManousos will stealthy take over as the protagonist while Carol keeps herself entertained with the the soap opera part of the series
>>216829767>if they need another generationBeside the few that are responsible for caring for the immunes, the hive can have everyone in the world working on creating the antennae. They can be done in a few years or even months. Though getting every immune to convert is probably a greater challenge.

>>216829869TBR Schmitt said on patreon they're watching it the day the episode releases but they gotta milk it by slowly releasing it. They love it and unironically think Diabate is funny and haven't said a negative thing about him.
>>216829924i still can't believe pluribussy poster wonno wonder mods banned him and men want to be him
>>216829703>>216829722>>216829951still more eventful than the average episode(i love it)
>>216829965I don't think I'm gonna watch season 4, but I'm definitely going to be in the threads.

LALALALALALALALALACONQUISTADORA!
I can't believe the plurb killed the president bros...
>>216829861Well yeah. For loser middle aged dyke foids. But not for normal people.
>>216829784so appletv is just dead for a year? Seriously? Did they forget that they need to have shows for people to want to subscribe?
>>216830029TV is bundled with Apple Music and iCloud storage. They don't give a fuck.
I need a pic of Carol riding her atom bomb with the text SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED
Well fellow individuals, it's been fun. (Not really.) Back to the catalog I go. See you in 2032 for the season 3 premiere.
>>216829703what? we're not getting 10 episodes? this is it?next time this shit gets released Rhea will look like a granny
I defended this show the entire runtime manI was constantly on board with the slowburn chemoI wanted to believe it would all be worth itThis show is like constant asymptotal happeningIt always gets so fucking close to things actually happeining only for it to get KEKED at the last secondIt's like content-edgingThis is ruined-orgasm: the showVince as lost the plotB R A V ORAVO
>>216829054it also didnt want to be butchered and eaten, it was a lose-lose scenario
Any shows that have a male lead who's as unlikeable as Carol?
She forgot about Helen pretty damn easily
>>216830071Breaking Bad
Carol is a SLUTa SLUT for PLURBS
>>216830029For All Mankind is out next year
>>216830071Not shows but>Good Time>Uncut Gems
>>216830085Too far, anon.
I'm surprised Zosia telling Carol that they love Manousos the same amount as they love her didn't immediately send Carol running. It was like the scene from Her where Joaquin Phoenix finds out his AI was a slut.
are we actually gonna fucking have to wait until 2027
>>216830054that's what happened with BCS, the aging was getting pretty distracting with mike and gus
>>216830076pluribussy power
>>216829029When insufferable lefties write anti-heroes they tend to end up creating maximally based heroes. We already know that Vince has a hard-on for Rhea and wants a show that she can run with for 2 or 3 seasons. Manousos is clearly made to be a hero that saves the world. He's stubborn, focused, and (most importantly) a man.A show made to showcase Rhea won't allow some random guy to take away her victory (even if he's brown), so it has to be the case that he dies.Since the only people able to kill others are the rest of the 12, it'll have to be one of them. I suspect Carol is actually gonna kill him, she literally has the shotgun to do it.
>>216829111>>216829152so I was talking about this with my wife....if JeetBitch's son were die in one of the Carol/Manny seizure experiments, that would definitely turn her against them. The Plurb would be backing both sides in a WW3 scenario of US/Paraguay vs Jeetistan. They want to please everyone, but most people have competing interests. Same issue would erupt if Manny and Carol were able to come up with a plurb jamming signal and were able to unplurb a city's worth of people, but just a city --- the plurb would still love and want to placate all of them to returning to plurb, but all of those people are going to have different goals
>>216830076>your wife dies>the only "person" left to regularly talk to is her killer (though they insist it was an accident)>they get spooked and put you in solitary confinement in an empty city for a few weeks>you get crippling loneliness to the point that you BEG for your wife's killer to come back into your life>you start having sex with your wife's killer and immediately become emotionally attachedI can't tell if this Vince is saying women are retarded or if the writing is just bad
>>216830076Helen vs the combined pluribussy knowledge of all the world's lesbos dead girl could never compete
>>216830132you think the plurb would be okay with that?
>>216829901Yeah he said in a recent interview that Skylar got too much hate and he never understood that. Carol is extremely unlikeable, I think that's intended. I think she's literally meant to be a rich white Karen archetype. They wanted us to buy that she'd just let the world burn for some pussy and fake romance because this is her epic heel turn even tho she just came off as a retarded bitch. I enjoy the show but could do without all the lesbian stuff. toxic lesbian yuri bravo vincent
>>216829869Praying for my best friends Milena and Lola to start Pluribus after they finish Mad Men and Andor. Unironically curious about Milena's take on it since she's a lesbian.
Honestly the part that pisses me off the most about this show is how little interesting questions they ask. If I were a survivor I'd have questions for days - what's the goal after the signal is transmitted? are the plurbs okay with starving in 10 years? what would they do in case of violence between survivors? what is their definition of violence and how can they loophole around it (jews have been playing lawyer with getting around intent on shabbat for centuries)? etcVince starts with an interesting premise, shocks everyone, and then proceeds to not expound on anything of value.
First Skyler, now Carol. Was Kim a fluke well-written female character in the Vinceverse?
>>216829047>now if she says “you try to turn me or manousos and ill suicide us both with an a-bomb” that’s leverageHow is she going to do that? It takes only few minutes for the plurbing process to complete, after which the hive doesn't care what happens to her body. She can't stay on alert every minute of every day. A gun pointed at her own head would be just as good of a plan, but it doesn't work because you lose control of your body when the plurbening starts.
I tried From and I couldn't get past the first episode the acting was so bad except for Perrineau. It felt like it was a comedy where they purposefully surrounded him with shit actors
>>216830071Legitimately cannot name you one
>>216830140Most men break in solitary confinement in a week niggs
>>216830186What if they're born in it? Molded by it?
>>216830071Young Sheldon
Pluribus is NOT the kind of show that deserves 2 years in between seasons, not even close. No CGI or elaborate sets, very small cast, very slow pace and only 9 episodes? It's insane they think that's acceptable. What the fuck went so wrong with that industry
40 days without attention and she's not just ready to betray humanity but actively engaging in it.
>>216830140yeah she got the stockholm syndrome. she really was a massive retard this episode tho.she shit talked kumba fucking them but it's fine if she does it, stupid bitch.
>>216830186yet anons ITT will still insist this shit isn't abusive manipulation because plurbs aren't allowed to lie and "love" you
It's interesting that none of the other survivors decided to turn yet, despite seemingly being very plurb-pilled before. I wonder if Carol and Manousos will try to contact them again.
>>216830212Pussy withdrawal, terrible affliction for dykes
>>216829103>violenthe didn't hurt anyone. he warned them before hand so they could lie down and there would be no accidents. he also didn't have to learn about the lethality of plurb seizures first hand because even though he hates them he's in control. he is a scholar and a warrior.
>>216830226Or imply Carol is weak for folding after 40 days of being totally alone with zero human contact. That shit will fuck you up.
>>216830127or he sacrifices himself to save the world and she gets the happily ever after with unplurbed zosia. it’s not that they want the female characters to actually be heroic, it’s just that they want the female characters to “win.”
at this rate the only thing that will ever save television sci-fi-fantasy is the Mistborn adaptation
>mfw shotgun blast
>Zozia is just a meat puppet the hive uses to manipulate Carol into join them>the hive knows the type of woman and the overall beheavor of someone Carol would feel attracted to>They know this because they absorved all the memories of her deceased wifeCarol knows all this and decides to ignores just to play wife with hive. And after a whole month living, travelling and fucking Zozia, Carol decides to ask the most basic question >There are other ways you can get my Stem Cells?She should ask this shit the moment she knew that they can convert the imuned via their stem cells.
How is the finale out? I though it was supposed to come out on friday?
>>216830248I did that for a year in covid and that shit was easy
>>216828917I forgot about this show and ive got like 3 or 4 episodes to catch up on now. Tomorrow will be a good day to binge watch them
>>216830207>No CGI or elaborate sets, very small cast, very slow paceI really hope we can undo the damage that TikTok and Marvel have done to the human psyche
>>216830271It normally airs Thursday nights, but Thursday is Christmas so they bumped it up two days. They did the same thing for Thanksgiving
>>216830164Even if it's intended, it's just genuinely illogical, it's a non character, Carol is simply a plot device to halt the premise. It could be that she's a huge bitch but smart, or that she's very emotional but kind, or that she's stupid but works hard... No. There is not ONE good trait about this character.
>>216830271Skill issue.
>>216830272You could speak to people on the internet. Carol can not. Also stop coping about "le... le lockdowns!" stores were still fucking open and we still went to work lmao. It was a nothingburger
>>216830172I think Carol is well-written, in the sense that I believe a person of her beliefs and mindset could exist and would act like she does in her circumstances. But well-written does not mean likeable.
FUCK YOU LAXMI
>>216830272I did too, and I thought it wasn't a problem at all. But I still had 2 friends commit suicide during covid lockdown. Autists are adapted to survive this shit, but I'd say it's more about the fact that my mom drove it into me that I can't derive my fulfillment from the presence of others and to be able to enjoy solitude.
>>216830207>No CGI?? there's definitely CGI in the show
>Left Hand of DarknessShould I read this? Good place to start with Le Guin?
ngl the shotgun blast scared the shit out of me, i thought there was something happening in my neighborhood
>NYOOOO WHY IS THE FEMOID EXHIBITING NEGATIVE CHARACTER TRAITS! IT'S ONLY GOOD WHEN BASED WALTER AND BASED MANOUSOS DO IT!
>>216830258>Carol knows all this and decides to ignores just to play wife with hive.This isn't unrealistic. It's MUCH easier to stick your head in the sand like Diabetes did. That's the whole point. You stop caring that you're fucking your mom and dad and siblings and friends when you're fucking the hivemind and just enjoy it because there's nothing else to hold you and no one on the internet to interact with.
>>216830207>this retard can vote
>>216830258The way she hasn't asked anything about Zosia pisses me off. She's so sanctimonious yet never bothered to ask if her rape victim is a les until this episode and clearly given the avoidant answer of the hive the answer is no. Carol is just awful.
>>216830309>You could speak to people on the internet.so could she, they just didn't want to speak to her kek
>>216830288i love the show BUT you cannot deny it's a slow burn
anyone got a mega for the brokies who want to get plurbed
>>216830332It's about gender, so if you're a chud you won't like it.
>>216830186Carol wasn't in solitary confinement. The size of the cell is an essential part of the punishment. Carol was free to go wherever she want.
>>216830351I accept your concession
I don't understand the sensor scene with Helen, what was the big deal
>>216830300have u heard the trope of Idiot Plot? thats basically what is happening.
>>216829301Holy fucking kino I'd love that showHopefully they get to meet next season at least
>>216830356>>216827644
>>216830372helen didn't trust carol because she's a drunkard
>>216830372Helen was secretly tracking how much Carol was drinking, its another sign that she kept things from her.
>>216830207>No CGI or elaborate setslol
>>216830378thought I combed the last thread god bless you sweet anon i kiss your forehead
>>216829905Honestly, it IS kind of shit writing. Carol simply had to ask them not to turn her even if they had a solution.
>>216829301>>216830376thats what they'd do if this was anime or manga, i dont know why the west refuses to do these kind of character dynamics
How is Zosia going to figure into the next season? If there's no #Stursia I don't know if I still want to watch.
>>216830367>never spoke to another human being>never even sees another human being>the closest thing to human contact she had for 40 days was a voicemail greeting>all less than a week after the love of her life is killed >but she wasn't locked up in a tiny cell so she should be totally fine actually Bait or retardation; call it
>>216830397>world is about to be destroyed>not my problem>you will be killed along with it>omg help me!Are women really all like this? Because I can just go on Twitter and find a few examples of this right away.
>>216830172Kim wasn't a well written character, she was boring AF and Odenkirk's incompetent acting would make any scene partner look good
>10 minutes with Zosia>Manousos finds out about how useless Carol actually is>Another 10 minutes with random Plurb>Finds out world saving information>Would have deplurbed a Plurb if Karen Central hadn't interferedBravo Vince. In 20 minutes a man did what a woman couldn't in 70 days
>>216830371that makes no fucking sense. you're trying too hard.
>>216830428Sounds like skill issue on both you and Carol.You are weak.
>>216830171This a hundred times
>>216830420im pretty sure they've said from the beginning they will have her join at some point, just peacefully, she already knows this too but figured the stemcells stuff was gatekept behind them being non-violent. they don't care if its technically force because its just following its programming justified by "the greater good"
>>216830360I'm not, though modern feminist/gender rhetoric certainly gets grating and repetitive.
I just don't think Vince should write White women.
>>216830445Why didn't he unplurb the world while Carol was on her honeymoon with ChatGPT? And don't give me the they're not avoiding him excuse, he can just call and get any piece of scientific technology/books/computers he wanted.
>>216829211not to sex the plurbs
>>216830171It's because the writers are too smoothbrained to commit to answering these questions
>>216830427she'll still be the main voice for the plurb, to manipulate carol (and for film making convenience)>>216830445manny could've done that 70 days earlier too
>>216830445>Finds out world saving informationWhat did he actually find out? That they transmit over radio? That's potentially useful but a long way from world saving info.
>>216830475he might be able to jam it or something to unplurb them
>be helen>be so upset about carol's drinking she puts a motion sensor on their cabinet so she can quietly seethe and build resentment towards her>don't love her enough to confront her about a clear addiction that is a danger to herself (and others(her car had a breath thingy on it))If nothing else, atleast bince showed an acurate depiction of lesbian "romance". Toxic and unhealthy
NEW>>216830493>>216830493>>216830493new>>216830493>>216830493>>216830493
>>216830467This bothered me so much. Why doesn't he at least ask for a fucking spanish version of the physics textbooks? Better yet why doesn't he call and ask specific questions to the combined minds of every world's physicist and electrician
Why didn't Manousos ask for Spanish physics textbooks? Is he stupid?
Now that the dust has settled: what made Kimmy so much more likable than Carol?
>>216830475>>216830496He was in the process of unplurbing someone before cunt carol did a girlboss and stopped plot from happening
>>216828951I think she asked for it purely for laughs or to make some kind of point.But in Season 2 they'll probably realize it can generate an EMP.My guess is they'll find out an EMP would instantly kill all the plurbs with sensory overload.At which point Carol and Manousos will fight over whether to kill all the plurbs.Instead they'll use it as a threat to keep Carol from getting plurb'd. Mutually assured destruction.
>>216830502>Better yet why doesn't he call and ask specific questions to the combined minds of every world's physicist and electricianthey're ghosting him because he made them all have seizures
>>216830502Those are library books, he probably never asked them for anything since Carol left TBQH. The only reason he's still at the house next door is because Carol basically did said an IOU for it.
>>216830496Jamming the signal wouldn't unplurb them. They'd just wander around looking lost.>>216830514No he wasn't.
Why did the hive even bring up making Carol joinIf they continued to lie by omission then they would have got her
>>216830344The other immune, like Diabetes even if they aren't doing much, they show an interest to know the hive. Carol just gave up altogether. >>216830350The show requires her to be dumb. If she asked some basic questions from the get-go, this entire season would be reduced to 2~3 episodes.
>>216830528You don't know that because it didnt happen, dummyWhat the fuck else would be happening there??
>>216830428>bait or retardation Third option: they have never had any friends because internet shills like Q made them believe schizo shit, Carol gets more social connection than he has in a decade.
>>216830506feet and a better personality
>>216830532they're always trying to sell itbiological imperative
>>216830350Do you guys think the show will actually discuss the ethics of forcing a straight woman into a lesbian relationship against her will though?
>>216830527It's just retarded to not ask for minimum quality of life improvements now that he knows the plurbs will not attack him and will tell him what he wants.
Well, we got the slow, but where's the burn and where's the kino?
>>216830545They have a virus that rewrote their dna, how was giving him a seizure and putting a radio near him going to unplurb him?
>>216830583I think he knew that all along, especially when they saved his ass. He's just like that...
>>216830164Skylar was such a massive cunt, the only good part of her surviving was to see how miserable she was.
The signal is just the signal containing the DNA sequence right? It's not actually doing anything to anyone.
>>216830528I think what's going to happen is that unplurbing anyone will just instantly oneshot them.Getting plurbed means learning of all the horrors that anyone has ever witnessed, but it also means constant contact with all the world's psychotherapists and coping mechanisms. If they get unplurbed, they'll remember all the bad but lose all of the good.
>>216830445>>Manousos finds out about how useless Carol actually isKek he was probably expecting a scientist the way she came off in her video
>>216830604Mannysisters we are so lucky Carol is 100 times worse....
>>216830333I also jumped
>>216830612No, it's how they communicate. The signal changes whenever they're seizing up.
>>216830496>>216830528Jamming the signal would probably give them seizures.Imagine you have a remote control car and you transmit noise on the control frequency. The car would go haywire trying to follow nonsense commands.That's probably why the plurbs have seizures when the immunes get mad at them. They're jamming the frequency with their emotions.What they really need is to block the signal rather than jam it.Get a plurb into a faraday cage and see what happens. Wouldn't be hard to build one. Just need chicken wire.Once you unplurb someone you ask them how to unplurb everyone else and they can probably give you the answer since the hivemind knows it.
>>216830171>are the plurbs okay with starving in 10 years? obviously, that's why they did it.>what would they do in case of violence between survivors? let them sort it out. covered in episode 2. they even leave when Carol talks to anyone.>what is their definition of violence and how can they loophole around it there are no loopholes. they are autistic about their programming.no killing and nothing invasive is what we know.I guess killing bacteria is fine since they treated Manny but plants is where they draw the line.
>>216830603The fuck are you talking about
>>216830780>are the plurbs okay with starving in 10 years?It would probably take way longer than that. Every plurb that starves is one less mouth to feed and food for the rest. Their numbers would slowly dwindle until they reach a population level that can survive off scavenging.Alternatively, maybe this virus wipes out every civilization infected with it. An interstellar plague.
>>216830506Soles & she wasn't a bitch. Idk if Vince knows this, but making a show off the personality of Skyler isn't a winning formula
Will you be keeping your apple tv subscription after this?
>>216830945it's not just scavenging, it's scavenging windfall. they're fucked.>Alternatively, maybe this virus wipes out every civilizationyeah, the implication is that earth is but a link in the daisy chain
>>216829924Worse actuallyShe knows exactly what the are, what they are doing and knows that the woman she raped is a mindslave who is probably hetero andwould never fuck her even if drunk.This really is a loser foid dyke series like the rest.
>>216830164No.He genuinely thinks she would be a good character
>>216831005Nah they can still scavenge dead animals and fallen apples or whatever.It's not just pre-plurb food.They can milk cows and probably collect eggs.There is probably some sustainable population they could survive at with those options.Probably wouldn't be a very big population though.
>>216830248Most people do that for years at a time. She's just a weak cunt.
>>216830780>there are no loopholes.Except there suddenly are when plurbs "never lie" except when it comes to converting Carol (I'd let lying by omission slide, but "that WOULD BE correct" is definitely linguistic loophole abuse).> no killingexcept letting the kid goat loose (almost certainly to be eaten by predators) is fine. So at the very least they could fill stadiums or hangars with correctly selected predators and prey such that the predators kill more than they can eat and there's windfall. But I'm sure that the process can be improved with sufficient ruleslawyering. E.g. jews are not allowed to activate electrically-operated devices on shabbat, but if they set up switches with random number generators that sometimes work and sometimes don't - it's fine because the outcome isn't certain. > I guess killing bacteria is fine since they treated Mannywhich already gives you things like chemosynthetic bacteria that can produce sugar. Depending on their opinions on abortion (e.g. at what point are we dealing with "person") maybe cannibalizing aborted children would work for them (obviously abhorrent to us but they already eat dead bodies), but I'm not sure of the caloric balance.At any rate, all of this is the stuff that I'd like to see explored, but Vince is obviously not very interested in that.
>>216830579Of course notWomen be predators rapists and groomers.Remember. "It's the good kind of rape". >>216829047This retard knows you can litterally make stemcells of her or any of the survivors by taking their cells, turning it into an egg cell and injecting their DNA into it to make a fucking clone correct?They don't need the more then likely 100% non-viable frozen eggs of a 90 year old dyke. But this show is made for middle aged loser lesbians who THINK their 8 year and 100k useless college degree makes them smarter then a sci-fi geek who casually studies science for shits and gigs.
>>216831231>at the very least they could fill stadiums or hangars with correctly selected predators and prey such that the predators kill more than they can eat and there's windfallthey can't interfere with animals to that extentthey can only let the animals loose to do as they please and pick up their corpses when they die naturally
>>216829442>Season 2 episode 9>Carol and Manu catch a plurb
>>216830178Manousos can set off the nuke. They can't plurb him.
>>216829450You're autistic
>>216829469his argument is dumb because it's built on the faulty premise that "valuing a man the same as an ant" means to value the man less than normalbut the plurbs do the opposite, they value the ant way more than normal
>>216829830I've been really getting into hypercock futas with fuckable peeholes and impregnatable balls. I wanna see the plurb work that out
