You SUCK editionPrevious >>217190519
>We'd never harm you>isolates you even though they know humans are a social species and isolation can do real harm>We'd never lie to you>lies by omission every other sentenceImagine listing to a plurb
>>217233163Like Carol said they have the collective bullshittery of every lawyer in the world at their disposal.>Your honor my client didn’t ACTUALLY lie!
>>217233093>plurb knows they are going to play croquet in this field>one or several plurbs delegated to go there at the same time and run the scoreboard just in case there's any funny message that needs to be displayedhow many other plurbs are following Carol around at all times just to add whimsy to her day at any given opportunity?
>>217233093Dead show.
>>217233163She's looks like Laura Palmer.
>>217233218Anything they can do to distract her while the plurb scientists work on cracking her clone baby's stem cells. Its all totally worth it.
Guys…
>>217233093>Have sex with a plurb because you find her attractiveSo is carol really fine with this? They're a hivemind that does anything you want, so they cant really consent. If anything, it's a power dynamic and I thought she was all about morality and shit. She's no better than that one African guy and his plurb orgy.
>watch show>have to wait 3 years for next season Yeah I don't think so dog.
Pluribussy
>>217233581Wrong. Carol was emotionally broken and Zosia made the first move. Koumba took advantage of the situation from day 1.
>>217233581>So is carol really fine with this?What's the alterative? Just be a virgin?
>>217233705She had already had her muff busted by her wife (who is frowning at her from hell as she eats out that plurussy)
>>217233464>and I was telling vince if the plurb was real this is what I would do
>>217233593You'll wait 1 year. This show doesn't have crazy effects. Shows used to be made quickly. They're going to try to crank this out, especially since shows lose a ton of interest the longer they spend between seasons.
How has the question of consent and rape never been brought up? The plurb often say they can't say no but that's not a yes. They're simply just trying to make the non-plurb'd happy by any means necessary. They're just using bodies as puppets. How did no one see Koumba as a rapist?
>>217233877https://www.nme.com/news/tv/vince-gilligan-says-pluribus-season-two-may-not-arrive-for-a-while-3921495
>>217233694What if Koumba was also emotionally broken before the plurbening
>>217233163I forgot the most important part>we won't do anything to you without your express consent>performs surgery on manousos without his consentDoesn't that prove they can also lie?
>>217234202Wait until you finally learn about the idea of implied consent.
>>217233877>This show doesn't have crazy effectsYeah, we noticed that with the use of a greenscreen for a wide angle view of ABQ and using a still image as a backdrop for Carol at the beach kek. That 15 mill per episode is going straight into Vince's pocket with effects like that.
Manosous just dying to a tree after the plurbs told him that would happen and him just being deleted from the show would have been so incredibly based
>>217234132I think he was lonely and poor before
>>217233593It would be worth it if the next season is good. Severence made us wait 3 years and then just shit the bed completely.
>>217233877The problem is that the whole industry is a fucking bloated and wasteful bureaucracy beyond all logic, and it's only gotten worse in the streaming era. As long as studios are shelling out hundreds of millions for cinema-quality special effects, A-list actors with absurd contracts, and a small army of PAs who are there just to get your coffee, which they seem to show no sign of stopping even as they stare down impending financial collapse, TV shows will never be efficient enough for annual broadcast ever again.
>>217234584Yeah, but then we would be stuck with the useless lesbian
>there is literally nothing it did that can only be explained by it needing to intelligently "trick" anyoneexcept that goes against the plurb ethos, they can omit the truth but can't resort to fuckery of any kind and the rat has the same biological imperative
>>217233961Only online leftists care about this shit to such a degree. It's just a fun thought experiment.
>>217235469you literally cannot prove there was any "fuckery" involved in the first place. you're taking it for granted for no reason. the rat was having a seizure. it recovered and felt the lab tech pressing on it trying to get a pulse and nipped her finger. the end.
>>217234584And then the plurbs eat him
>>217234355That doesn't matter if consent for care was refused. He was already dehydrated and hurting before and refused care multiple times. He is completely in his right to go off and die if he wants
>>217235809Consent for help was refused, he didn't say to not provide care in the event of injury.
>>217235766would they? his meat would've been tainted. they might grind him up for fertilizer.
>>217233961it's not koumbait's MONSIEUR DIABATÉSay.His.Name.
>>217236227Diabetes.
>>217236227Cumbrain Diabetus?
I'm already completely over this show.
>>217236380Alright, see you tomorrow.
>>217236380See you in the next thread anon, we love you.
>3 hours to even get to 40 postsLol
>>217236518It's slowly dying and that's okay
>>217233755she's so fine bros...
>>217235846Any result of injury from his initial refusal is on him. He or someone else would have to actually call for assistance. They just continued to spy on him after the refusal.
is this gonna follow the gay trend of one season per 2 years?
>>217235478I'm adding this to the thought experiment. Carol of all people should've used this argument to get the rest on her side but she just went for the pajeeta's son instead
>>217236739yeah imagine if Carol had the wherewithal to conduct herself like Koumba did. he put everyone at ease and calmly made his case and even though I think most people would have objections to him it's easy to sympathize with his point. meanwhile, Carol....i think that's one of the points the show is probably trying to make too. like being "right" doesn't matter if no one ever hears your ideas because they've written you off because you're so horrible to be around.
Isn't it a little weird being intimate with plurbs knowing that your mom, dad and family are sharing minds with the plurb and acknowledging that it's happening?? (and may even be engaging with the act also in some way??)
>>217236909not if you're just using their bodies to essentially masturbate and don't think of them as actual people
Carol = WaltManousos = Mike/Jesse Zosia = GusDiabete = HankLaxshimi = jeet-SkylerProve me wrong.
>>217236909Your family members are dead. It's a super intelligence that has a copy of their memories stored and maybe keeps some of their bodies around for labor.
>>217237025>Your family members are dead.not necessarily. actually it would seem there is no survivor so far without any family members left alive.
i hate everything about this show
>>217225724>>217227570>>217227656No guys. All life on Earth uses the same RNA bases, from plants to humans, because we share a common ancestor. Asteroids have been found with nucleobases but not nucleotides, which is like the difference between finding eggs milk and flour and finding a pancake. Unless the entities that built the transmitter that was picked up on from share a common ancestor with humans, which seems highly unlikely, then the idea that the aliens would happen to write an RNA sequence that matched ours is very low. It would be like right now if humans needed to guess the RNA sequence of unknown life elsewhere in the universe. There is NO WAY! that Gilligan will explain this. It will be handwaved away. I'm sorry.
>>217237179god you're retarded
>>217237179>The aliens might also have eggs milk and flour but there is NO WAY they would ever also know how to make a pancake out of them. Vince will NEVER explain how they have pancakes.k
If things return to normal, my entire family believes that there's no way you'd get punished for raping the plurbs. They believe everyone would let it slide for saving the world. Even my die hard leftist relatives agreed and said at most you'd get some mean tweets made about you.
>>217236969Diabete is Saul
>>217236626do you mean fine as in fine? or fine as in meh?
>>217236969>Carol = Waltthey're both the protagonists, there's a hidden genius to this
>>217239156nobody says "so fine" to say "meh"maybe zoomzooms don't know this but "fine" means hot
>>217233093>this general is still going 2 weeks after the finale>when the first season was meh/10 at best and the second won't arrive until fuckin 2028literally what is there to discuss?
>>217239250It's a word-of-mouth type of show, anon. No one watched it airing, because fucking no one has apple TV. Air dates mean fucking nothing because of anons like >>217223724 >>217208797 and myself who all binged this in 2 days, and want to talk about everything. This slow trickle of new anons who want to disect and disscuss this show will continue for the next 3-9months, until the generals become a self sustaining cancer. This is the way it works. All of this has happened before, all of this will happen again
>>217233163You cannot trust the plurbs unfortunately
>>217239502I watched it while airing and binge watchers can have their nuts roasted. It's not the same.
>>217239580>humanity is saved thanks to Manosous >Zosia returns home>is stoned to death for having lesbian sex
>>217236484Why did they draw Zosia so evil here?
>>217239654>We know what you did, Zosia...>We ALL know what you did!!!
Apparently this is the same actress. Talk about getting walled
>>217239733>This scene from Breaking Bad was brought to you by 5 Hour Energy
>>217239994The car stuff was even more overt. It really undermines the series.
Why is Sexler some arrogant, hypocritical, dykechild and not some nihilistic cunt? Would be way more interesting and I feel like there is no way to play into the plurbs at all; you either completely accept them or deny them like the sudaca. So the first season was kind of a way for developing her character.
>>217234202they told him to wave at the skyhe waves at the sky just before he passes out
is Wycaro an allegory for Breaking Bad?
When does Mike show up?
>>217240421He's covering his eyes from the sun.
So wait, Carol calls in love with Zosia because she resembles the cover art for the pirate character?Zosia doesn't seem to have a pirate personality, she's very placid and compliant.
>>217240535She's not in love. She was alone for over a month and Zosia kisses her then Carol gives in. She's in love with Zosia the same way as a weeb is in love with their waifu.
>>217233464is rhea gay irl
This could still be miscommunication, the fact that Carol hasn't explicitly told them she will never want to turn through any method needed to be addressed stronger than it did. Carol never told them not to use her eggs when she found out what they were doing. The fact that she immediately doesn't try the most obvious shit is frustrating but it's probably the only way the show can continue with the concept.
>>217240678A little bit
>>217240769I think the idea is that they won't accept a blanket refusal to plurbing. We are doing this because we love you etcThey only accept situational refusals to being punctured with a needle etc.
>>217240584>She's in love with Zosiashe's in lust
>>217240808Did you stop reading mid-sentence?
>>217240781That seems to be what it is, but I feel like that needed to be addressed more because shit like the stem cell refusal happening because she didn't ask can't just happen again. Like her escaping plurbing just being she didn't ask something before and she asks something now in a season 2 episode would just be "you're doing the same thing again" and I feel like they're having Carol intentionally not say certain things so that they can keep doing thatEither that or Carol is supposed to be really, really dumb
>>217240843>they're having Carol intentionally not say certain things so that they can keep doing thatYou're quite right. The egg question would have been a good exchange that the audience would have liked to see rather than just imagine.The character interaction is pretty poor actually.
they already tried to plurb Carol against her will. there's not some kind of magic loophole where they suddenly care about consent. the only thing they refuse to do is physically harm anyone. so if they can plurb you without doing that, either by kissing you or stealing your stem cells that are sitting in a freezer somewhere, they are going to do so. there's no logical contradiction with how the plurb has behaved so far imo.
>>217240969>there's no logical contradiction with how the plurb has behaved so far imo.I agree, however they were never outright rejected by the people they forcefully plurbed. They could believe in an implied consent for plurbification that there might be some way to opt out of, but thinking back out of all the episodes she never directly tells them "I don't want you to do anything to me through any methods that will plurb me" or asks them for an opt out.She does tell them she will resist them and that they can't extract her stem cells, but that's different than flat out telling them not to do it. All I'm saying is I'm reeeally hoping that some kind of bullshit like that doesn't come up later. Also I would be even happier if I'm wrong and I just forgot some scene where she tells them never to plurb her.
>Get the plurbs to stock up an island or a remote area near a power plant with decades of food, water, supplies, guns and ammunition, fuel, generators, medical supplies, terabytes of entertainment, etc>Have them build a fortress style perimeter laden with high walls, barbed wire, mines, and more>Get vehicles and ships (if it's an island) stacked up>Get them to feed power to your fortress for as long as possible>Ask them to divulge every military, government and scientific secret, discovery and scandal to you in the form of documentation and testimony>Then tell them to stay the fuck away from you at all timesIt's that easy
>>217240822Yeah admittedly I did, I'm sorry.
>>217241165They can plurb you through the air you breath, you'd have to be in some kind of dome and have an air filtration unit and have it be maintained and also how would that effect your sewage system and alsoThere are a lot of factors to consider
>>217241218Might be better being in a bunker then, but then the downside of an air filtration system as you mentioned would come into play.
>>217241098so far their limits are clearly explained. from the first episode they made it clear their intention is to plurb her and they only reinforce that idea in several other episodes. i feel like i totally understand the rules and they haven't been broken yet. they think Carol is drowning to death right now. they aren't going to hurt or kill her but they will stop at nothing else to "save" her. makes sense to me.
pluribus is peak /comfy/ tv
>>217239733Honestly, her body is pretty much still the exact same shape, just bigger. Butter face has definitely seen better days
>>217239733Good god
>>217233093PLURIBUSSY
>>217240850did she win an oscer?bravo, rhea!
>>217241943Okay, kid, you can't just slap images on top of each other like that, that's not how camera lenses and perspective work. Sort yourself out.
Did Zosia tell Manu about them eating people? Is that included in "Todo"?
>You gave her WHAT?!
pluribump
kisse
>>217233228
>>217233093>huuuuuu I'm a lesbian. I'm unique and special cuz I don't like dicksI fucking hate lesbians.
>>217241389No. Pluribus is gay as fuck. Also the Paraguayan guy has Colombian accent (Paisa specifically).
>>217244416He doesn't even show up until much later in the show, and /tv/ has no sound. How the hell do you know what he sounds like unless you've been watching it?
>>217233163and they lied by commission when they said the dog isnt plurbed because they know immunes have no way to prove otherwise.
>>217244416he's not paraguayan
Everything is the show is kinda wrong. It seems to be written by incompetents and superficial retards. I don't get why you guys are shilling it so much.
>>217243212Presumably? Not that it would change how he feels about them very much.>>217244453I'm pretty sure she said the dog wasn't though. And we have no reason to believe any animals are actually under control at this point in time except for the first rat. However, the baby goat running up to Kusimaya would imply that they aren't.
>>217244475talking about it in its own thread isn't shilling.
quieres?
What's the significance of this book to the show?>inb4 original title
>>217244547Chupame los huevos marico. Hijo' Puta.
>>217244565Ten Little African Americans?
>>217244644who said they were american?
I wonder what type of ecological collapse occurs when you stop controlling animal populations while also releasing zoo animals and pets into the wild. Most of the zoo animals and pets probably end up starving, other livestock would largely fall to the same fate, and then you eventually get overrun by wild boars.
>>217244839>meeee we can't interfere with natureStill using cars and polluting the environment.
>>217233093
>>217244839>Plurb: Not my problem!
>>217244839Domesticated stuff would probably un-evolve to more suited forms quickly. Most of that DNA is still there and ready to be triggered back on.As for animals in general, they did quite fine for 650 million years before humans showed up.
halfway through episode 2, what am I in for here?
>>217244839The plurbs releasing every single cat into the wild alone would really fuck shit up. RIP the world's bird population.
>>217245076You just have to hope they get eaten by dogs, coyotes, or boars.
>>217245424The fat and slow ones maybe. But cats are barely domesticated and they can survive quite well in the wild, especially in warmer climates. The canines won't catch most of them. A lot of them might die of starvation because there would simply be too many released at once. There aren't enough song birds and mice around.
>>217244416It's explained that he had to flee Colombia because of cartels and settled in Paraguay
>>217244565Well the survivors keep getting plurbed one by one until it's all up to Carol to save the world and the galaxy
>>217245076Fuck birds
>>217244475The concept has potential so it's interesting to imagine how we could have done it better and ignore the actual show.
Why is this allowed to go on so long and rbmk wasnt
>go to pluribus reddit>they're even dumber than /tv/>lots of people claiming that the hive mind is evilIs it that hard to understand that the hive mind is a virus that simply needs to spread?>THEY LIED TO CAROLNah, they're just going the Obi-Wan route of "from a certain point of view".>THEY KEPT UP A FACADE AND WIPED OUT A CULTURE IN PERUThey catered to the individual and once she joined the hive there was no need for catering. Jesus Christ, basic bitch sci-fi really is too much for plebs.
>>217245993you're very smart i can tell
>>217246132No, I'm an average midwit but I'm somewhat familiar with sci-fi concepts.
What happened to all the actually attractive women?Did they all die before becoming one of Koumba's harem?
>>217246803Attractive women are busy running their onlyfans and spending all the money from it, not getting naked for a pittance of money on an AppleTV show.
>>217246803Is it that odd that Koumba has particular tastes? (which mirror Vince Gilligans tastes)
>>217246803the plurbs have to consent to being fuckmeat.unfortunately for coomba he can only pull 5s and old men.
I'd watch Carol's video blogs and leave a nice comment
>>217246803>>217246835Attractive women don't do television and film or even traditional porn anymore due social media or OnlyFans as anon points out. Just look at Sidney Sweeney or the other "hot stars", they're very mediocre compared to earlier female "babes".
imagine all the things you can make mike and jay do…
>>217233093Pluribooba
>>217247054It wouldn't be the same. Their dead-inside grumpiness would be replaced with soulless plurb smiles. They probably wouldn't even insult Rich Evans.
So people hate Carol because she refuses to become a literal zogbot and find the other survivors retarded and just coping? Lmao just say you hate women chuds.
>>217246835>>217246995You guys think this wouldn't be great for their onlyfans business?
>>217247218They don't need it, they just post on IG and Snapchat with links to their OF.
>>217247202No people hate her because she gives in to the zog towards the end and because she doesn't ask the zog any smart questions (it's called "idiot writing" as I have just learned)
>>217247202>>217247313people hate carol because she's purposely written to be an unlikable cunt. Thats what I love about her, she just like me frfr
>>217247202>So people hate Carol because [nothing anybody has ever said]?
>>217247313She gives into it after understanding no one gives a shit and everyone hates her. She is acting as a human being. Ffs it hasn't even been 2 months in the series.>It's called idiot writingYeah the point of a character driven series is to appease the neuroticism of virigin redditors coming with their epic logical plot holes that they learn after obsessively analyzing their slop and endlessly discussing it with thousand other autists. Yeah sure writers should have a mass of unimaginative virgin failures digest the script until there is not a single thing these autistic faggots will not come up and say "BUT WHY DIDN'T THE CHARACTER JUST DID THIS AND THE SERIES ENDED RIGHT HERE!??!? OMG I'M SOOOO SMART". But also , quite explicitly, the point is that her personality and abrasiveness makes her less efficient at understanding them, that is set up literally in episode 2 where everyone already knew more about this shit than her and well yeah again she has her breakdown after seeing everyone already knew about her discoveries and simply didn't give a shit and kept her in the dark. Vince is literally shouting this shit to you. It's not a particularly good character or anything but Jesus its kinda obvious what is going on.
>>217247657Hope Vince sees this, bro.
>>217245993to be honest, people who get legit mad at tv shows or characters like this are just a special kind of retarded
>>217247234>They don't need itYou're thinking like a man, women want it all, especially siphoning attention from a popular tv show
>>217247681It's literal slop, but even that is too much for some of you faggots.
>>217233581I kept thinking this the entire time they were having their little whirlwind getaway romance. She doesn't really know anything about Zosia, for all carol knows she's not a lesbian, might have been a mother or something. she really doesn't see them as individuals, which is fair because they don't see themselves that way either. I love that they contrasted her with manousos who has actual morals and standards instead of just being a screeching white woman claiming to have those things.
>>217233581>>217247994You fucking autists, YES carol is an imperfect somewhat morally ambiguous character with flaws. Basically after being isolated she said fuck it and gave in. Only a deluded autist would think that it is somewhat odd for a person to not always be consistent with his or her principles whatever that means. Yeah you fucks and Manousos is supposed to show a contrast with a HIGHLY principled character. How do people don't get this fucking shit show lmao.
>>217233093Rhea Seahorn will be 60 in season 4
>>217248211take a chill pill anon
Carol and Mano will have to force some farming robots on the plurb if they want to keep them alive long enough for unplurbing
>>217248494
So Manos is a chud, right?
>>217247247Based
>>217248718probably a commie chud. lots of those in south america, and it foils well against the plurbs. I really hope we find out that he's been a russian asset, or a sleeper agent or something, because I think that would be a fun twist
>>217246969i think it's more they know they're his type similar to zosia (he's blind)
>>217248831But he's Catholic and really cares about property.
>>217249513a clever disguise
>>217246803they all got automatically rejected by some roastie casting director
Manos is libtertarian
Carol is a fucking idiot. Why didn't she ask the plurbs what the secret formulas for coke and kfc are?
>>217250592by his own code, he is a thief
>>217250592Saw some car enthusiasts in a forum dote on that car of his. They weren't happy when he burned it down the next episode
>>217247234sure, for an established OF whore. but if you're just getting started, even having a bit part on a popular show is enough to get your instagram a few thousand followers immediately. the first 10,000 simps is much harder to get than the next 90,000.
>>217248494Carol and Mano have done more to keep the plurbs alive than any other survivors. Their emotional outbursts are followed with influxes of fresh HDP.
>>217245034A lot of comfy plurb shenanigans and annoying voicemails
>>217248718>>217250592>directionbrain
don't feel like backreading the thread but i wonder how many anons didn't think carol was a bitch until the plurbing and were on her side when she was bitching and moaning about her 70iq fanbase
>>217251681i always thought she was a bitch
why is there a general for a show that isn’t on. am I missing something
>>217251733we must share this gift with others
Reminder Vince Gilligan also wrote Small Potatoes on X Files so he has always been an advocate of "it's not real rape" type rape.
>>217251681I thought she was a bitch from the start, but her defense of humanity made up for it. Then she gave in to her homo lust though and fell in love with a plurb...
>>217252428I fell for Zosia too so I can't be mad at her
What would (you) do if you survived the joining without being plurbed?
>the plurbs killed MY wife, i hate them i hate them!>i'll still take freebies from them though>why doesn't everyone else want to kill the plurbs they killed MY wife!>we need to save the planet from them!>oh, they can't convert ME without my consent? woohoo! fuck the planet the plurbs rule! time to go sightseeing and fuck around!>oh... they actually can convert ME without my consent now? ugh fuck the plurbs I always hated them and never liked them, time to kill them allCarol is a very realistically written 21st century 90iq white woman, they all act like this. Nothing really matters until it affects them personally.
Carol giving in was a collection of multiple factors. There was the obvious isolation period and being shunned by the other uninfected, but there was also Manousos himself. Manousos is a real man, an individual, and that means he is just as combative and confrontational as Carol. They are like hedgehogs. Faced with the choice to either work with another true individual, who could hurt her and fight her and make her mad and get between her and her booze, or submerging herself into the Kaworuesque love of the Zosia puppet, it's clear why she did what she did. You only have to take a look at /a/ to realise how many Kaworufags there are who would do the same, just escape the difficulty of being around other individuals and be happy. Hideaki Anno himself concluded ultimately he also would rather run away on a train with a wife parachuted from nowhere than live with the burden of difficult people. Does that make him a traitor?Yes.
>>217251681She was mostly relatable. But there were a couple little outbursts that felt slightly over the line. Like when she made Helen rearange those books. It's not really a big deal, but that's not her store, not her product, and the fact that she feels entitled to physically place herself above others shows that she really is just an unlikable cunt
>>217252635It's just business. Everyone does it. You gotta be a real bizzatch to make it in this bitch eat bitch world.
>>217252586party and do drugs until I remember I gave a DNA sample to 23andme 16 years ago right as they pump the plurb gas into my autobong
The hivemind makes no logical sense. It's all the same person but every single one person is in the background, just providing data to a single (not universal!) mind that makes the decisions. Therefore Carol isn't fucking every person on the planet, she's fucking an alien who utilizes Zosia as a meat puppet.I do not think Gilligan realizes this. The idea that there is a multipolar - infinitely polar, basically - mind is a logical fallacy. Mind is a comintern-like system: every decision MUST come from a single center or every notion of coherence falls apart. If Zosia the Plurb was ran by a multipolar mind, she would have a mental breakdown every milisecond. In Pluribus it's ALWAYS the same alien taking control. Even if there are multiple Aliens tuning in, they do it one at a time, and they have a decided-upon course of action set beforehand.Likewise, Plurbs do not benefit from unified intelligence, apart from mechanical prowess which is also a nonsensical concept because motorics need to rely on physical strength. Another one of Gilligan's oversights. The only thing humankind can give to plurbs is data on the non-plurbs and that's it.
>>217252617But how does this affect you personally?
>>217252708Anon they can get your DNA in any way.
>>217252708just because they sequenced your DNA doesn't mean they can plurb you. They need stem cells from your bones.
>>217252716The biological imperatives are common and the mental capabilities of each individual drone are compromised. No central intelligence is necessary, because each ant does what it's supposed to do with compulsive voluntary motive. It isn't even sentient, just trained on the patterns of humanity and suppressing the actual human characteristics of sentience. Why did you make me solve a catchable to tell you this you fucking moron?
>>217252716Depends what the purpose of the hivemind is, which is just speculation atm
>would rather lick old tuna cans and eat dog food than trust the hive>travels 9000 kilometers for the last bit of hope, paying for all the gas he takes and hunts his own food on the way>walks through the deadliest jungle on the planet instead of compromising on his beliefs>gets wounded by spiketree, immediatly cauterizes his entire back with a machete>performs radio-wave exorcisms like he was born to do it>gets abandoned by carol, immediatly start to learn engineering in a language he barely understands>calls his mother a bitchManousos is the biggest chad /tv/ has ever witnessed. We don't deserve this fucking guy
>>217252928>The... world... is... big.>>The world is... big.>The world IS big.pure kinography
>>217244560
>>217252928He is TOO based. He will probably get ruined in some way in the next season.
>>217245693The most jewish looking colombian I've ever seen.
>>217252947He traveled the world....alone..with the plurbs following and watching him closely? LOLNigga is getting played like a fiddle.
>>217252928I know that he is a fictional character, but this guy is inspiring as hell. He is literally incapable to give a fuck about the odds that are stacked against him
>>217252928they are gonna nerf him so much it's actually sad
>>217252947The World is big?
>>217244560>getting high with KarolinaSign me in.
>>217253285>>217250592I kinda wanna visit Grand Canaria now after watching Vince's travel show
While watching Mad Men on Patreon yesterday, my Serbian wives Milena and Lola said "you get this a day early as this slot is empty for the week in anticipation for the best show to ever exist.."Pluribus soon?
>>217254502that's kind of an unfortunate butt
>>217245693>It's explained that he had to flee Colombia because of cartels and settled in Paraguay... where is THAT ever explained?
>>217254824I think that's just because she is standing weirdly. She is usually known for having a very fortunate butt.
I just want pluribus to make me dinner. I'm so fucking tired of cooking my own food every day. Men are better at cooking but obviously nature intended women to cook for men.
>>217252928>performs radio-wave exorcisms like he was born to do itWhat was he even doing? How is putting a radio receiver (not transmitter) next to a spazzing plurb and then whispering to him going to get through to the individual? How would a radio block the signal?
>>217256116Just cook for several days and freeze most of it. That way you can just take something out of the freezer when you don't want to cook. The freezer is the lazy man's friend.
>>217252928gigaspic
>>217256165The radio gives him feedback on what is happening on the Plurb communication frequency.The Plurb he was screaming at was jamming the frequency, which makes all the other plurbs spaz out too.
>>217256207>freezing freshly cooked foodThe pluribus would send Gordon Ramsay to kill me, pacifism be damned.
>>217256259So he didn't need to put the radio in the plurbed guy's hands, he was just doing it for the good mojo, mon?
>>217256418Nah, I don't think that did much, except to put it as close to the source as possible.
If plurbs have malevolent intentions because they're an alien mind masquerading as human collective then why do they tolerate the immune people, especially if the latter can damage the collective just by projecting negative emotions at them? Losing tens of millions of people at a time does not outweigh absorbing a literal dozen. If they just wanted them out of the way then they can just kill them or just move out of their reach
>>217247313As other people have said, it's all wrong.If it was a classic sci-fi novel, it would be a short story.if this was a japanese manga then the protagonist would be in some scenario that requires him to keep his true opinions secret whilst asking choice questions to incover the true nature of the situation.There would be suspense, worldbuilding and a feeling of progress as new things are discovered and new elements come into play that change the paradigm. That's how you justify taking this premise beyond a simple short story.In Pluribus, it's just about the atmosphere or trying to make one character relevant, in service of some commentary about society. This then mandates that no questions are asked about the setting that might disrupt the "premise". Combine this with it being serialised TV on a streaming service so there is no pressure to use the time meaningfully in any way. It's classically terrible sci-fi, a new form of bad.
>>217256724There's an anon around here who says that overcoming the resistance is part of the evolution of the plurbius. Maximising the efficacy of the signal they end up sending out.My personal theory is the plurbius isn't capable of violence by design. It fucks up the things about the human race that make us capable of aggression (or lying), and instead makes everyone performatively placating and misleading.
Sci fi is for loser chuds who want to get robot sex slaves and go to other planets instead of focusing on the real world and what matters: making money and giving me money to spend on things that I want. have sex incels
>>217236518What the fuck is there to even talk about anymore? Pluribis is literally Nothing Happens: The Miniseries.I think the best part about being immune would be having all of the celebrity females sent to my home so I could make them have sex with me/each other. Gillian Anderson and Lacey Chabert, the chick who works nights at my grocery store and the French teacher I had back in High School. The possibilities are endless.Its like Mugen but for rape.
>>217257177>Pluribis is literally Nothing Happens: The Miniseries.Are you kidding me? All kinds of stuff happened. Firstly, the plurbing occurred. Secondly, Carol found out they eat people (nobody cares though) Through, Manudo listened to the radio and hiked through the jungle.Fourthly, Carol fell in lesbian lust with plurbetteFinally, a big box with a bomb got dropped on Carol's driveway.And all of this happened in only like ten hours.
I feel like Season 1 is just setting the stage for Season 2. Not much really happened, but it's all going to blow up next season.
I was on this bitch's team until the final episode. What a retarded, stupid, sarcastic, catty, no good bitch. The only productive thing she's done is alert the true protagonist, Manousos, to find her.
>>217258131I wonder how they will nerf Manousus next season in order to keep her relevant somehow
>>217258131>Yeah, dude, we can hurt living things, but yeah, we'll totally give you an a-bomb
>>217258131Manousos is an antagonist. He is the only character in the show who has knowingly, willingly perpetuated the mass murder of plurbs.
>>217258278Not really, he warned them beforehand.
Carol not once referred to Manousos by name. He went to all that trouble rehearsing his introduction before meeting her and she just calls him hombre and cabron. When she will refer to him by name she will probably call him Manuel or Miguel or something. I'm getting upset even imagining it.
>>217258333So only a million will die from the violent seizures rather than 14 million (assuming he gave it like 10 minutes to pull over any cars0.
>>217258278the aliens/retarded labcoats/plurbs are the antagonists.
>>217258248They also are okay with Diabete killing animals and then cooking them for him. Generally their rules seem more like something that is hardcoded into the virus, rather than something they arrived at with philosophy. They seem to skirt those rules a lot.
>>217258654>>217258278the real antagonist is the friends we made along the way
>>217258840>lawyers will save us from an alien invasionThis is some Jewish wetdream.
>>217245076>RIP the world's bird populationOr, get this... the birds evolve these things called WINGS that they can use to FLY away from the cats (cats cannot fly becoz they're FAT)
>>217254931Interview with the actor
it would be a completely different show if plurb virus did not impose the hippie bias and just averaged out the human mindsetit would keep a lot of bodies constantly fucking on drugs at the very least
>>217233093the most iconic nfl rivalry in history is about to have a big postseason showdown at soldier field and you nancys are talking about a lesbian drama series between seasons? GROW A PAIR
>>217244401Show's nothing like that, go scam grandmas on facebook.
>>217259400Why? So you can suck on them like the faggot you are?
>>217250592It took him seven years, but he never broke the speed limit. That's just the kind of guy he is.
Rewatching tonight
How Rhea looks so good at 53? She looks at least 10 years younger. Can’t find any signs of surgery or what not
>>217259439Maybe you watched a different show dude. The main character is insufferable
What if the Indian bitch is the real Pluribus?
>>217233093this thread of bots doesn't know shit about this show
>>217259515How were they able to fit this into 2 hours?
>>217259452whatever you say nancy, enjoy your highball while watching the view and pluribus faggot
>>217257177Yeah I guess the /pol/troons repeated this so much about a show they never watched, idiots like you just took it as gospel.It's incorrect, however.Every single episode has something revelatory, or clarifies the viral scheme in some way. Some meandering shots don't detract from the plot as a hole, or mean it's not advancing.
>>217259651Nah, she's just depressed and confused by the new reality she's in. Next time you're crying and wondering why everyone hates you and find you repulsive, remember the way you choose to behave.
>>217259894They both look old there
>>217259894hag on hag
>>217259921hags require love too
>>217259677It used to be that people who made movies knew what they were doing
>>217259894am i autistic or do they loathe each other
>>217259617really easy if you don't get bogged and simply take care of your skin. sunscreen, moisturizing, drinking water. most of what makes people look old is skin damage.
>>217260149Rhea is jealous that polefu is getting all the male attention
Kim sexler hag uooh
>>217259840based
>>217246874coomba banged an old dude?
Me with the plurbs maximally plurbing out.
>>217261792I hope these beaners get lye burns
>>217261792is this what happens to plurbs who don't have enough braincells to do complex tasks, even with a global super-intelligence helping them?
what if the plurbs were sexually transmitted and propagated via anal rape?
>>217260149they don't loathe each other
I just finished all 9 episodes am I in the club now you fucking beta incels?
>>217263766No because you didn't take 9 weeks to watch them. Fuck you binge watcher. I was forced to wait for non-events to happen for over 2 months. Then the finale was the biggest nothing of them all. Get bent zoomer
>>217259400>NO WHY ARENT YOU WATCHING THE JEWS BROADCAST NIGGERBALL SO THEY CAN GET THE MONEY AND STATUS TO FUCK AND MARRY WHITE WOMEN LIKE THE REST OF THE KEKS!What exactly do you have a pair of? Cucksheds to watch niggerball in?
>>217263813I never start watching anything til the season is over
>>217263739hey guys what did zosia mean by this
>>217263905she probably needed to poop
>>217263739All I could think of was this.
>>217263766Sure, but the club is closing
>>217263739oh manI would fall in love with Zosia plurb too...
Honestly it seems pretty easy to not be plurb'd if you just set up an automatic system that would torture you if they didn't do what you wanted. If you set up a dilemma for them where if they didn't stop progress towards plurbing you would cause severe harm to yourself, what are they gonna do?
>>217266336What exactly would this system entail? You can point a gun to your head all you want, but you're going to have to keep pointing that gun at your head. And they'll probably figure out a way to disable your device as you're seizing or they could "abandon" you like they did Carol, but I don't think threatening to kill yourself is much of a plan.
