If you enjoy something because an alien virus makes you enjoy it, is that really genuine?
I get that doing a hive mind story is gonna lead to obvious parallels with communism but there are so many that I can’t help but wonder if the whole thing isn’t meant to be a metaphor for a revolution. They’re even throwing threat of a famine out on the horizon of the centrally planned economy. This just screams ‘sure what we have now sucks, but the alternative is worse,’ imo.
I read a tweet that argued against the “hive mind = communism” thing very well: “The Pluribus mind hive has realized communism as an abstract universal in which every individual is a mere predicte of the universal mind, but fails to realize communism as a concrete universal in which the self-development of each individual enriches and unfolds humanity.”

I see your point, but I’d be more mad at the alien hive mind that forcefully assimilated me into itself without my consent, assuming I ever get my individuality back. Bad as it is to drug and almost kill someone, Carol is trying to save the human race.

I read a quote from Vince Gilligan saying he had as many as four seasons planned out but it could go as long as five.

That last scene was creepy as hell. Zosia stands expectantly, waiting for Carol to come over, saying nothing, her face giving away nothing, and only smiles once Carol falls apart in her arms. Really seals for me that the hive does obey the rules the show has laid out, but it’s still incredibly manipulative.
Can’t wait for more Plurb
29·2 days agoThere were people on Hexbear saying this wasn’t a color revolution or regime change operation.

It used to happen over Raiders/49ers games.
I mean yeah, American football is really more of a rugby than a football.
Me in Pluribus: “Can I get…uuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh…a everything bagel?”
I don’t see what’s wrong with this post. Palestinian Christians are as oppressed as any other group of Palestinians. Christians absolutely do get spat on and harassed in Jerusalem. They’re not the most oppressed group, but why are we even ranking that?
Edit: also Israelis just fucking spit on Christians making pilgrimages to Jerusalem. They routinely spit on anyone who’s not Jewish. They’re scum.
I’ve never heard that. I don’t know much about obscure biblical mythology.
The only thing it ever did efficiently
As a bonus (sorry I don’t have a link to the original tweet), Grok also thinks Elon should have been the #1 pick in the 1998 NFL draft:
Thank you!
Yeah I really liked this one
That or they’re trying to trigger a coup, but you would think it would have happened already if that were the case. They may have thought they had someone on the inside ready to assume power, but for some reason it hasn’t come together.
When they tried ousting Maduro for Guaido in 2017, there were massive protests against the government, and the opposition was very active. Maduro’s position this time appears to be much stronger.
It appears that the Trump administration is deeply divided as to whether they actually want to launch this war. Of course, that could be some kind of deception, but one would think the deception wouldn’t have lasted so long.
