Why Carol From Pluribus Is So Annoying and Why That’s the Point
Why does Carol from Pluribus feel so irritating to watch? Using Vince Gilligan's Pluribus as a psychological thought experiment, I explore why Carol’s resistance (especially in the first half of the series) grates so much, what her character reveals about conscience, morality, and non-assimilation, and also why the calm, benevolent hive mind of the Others might be both the solution to our existential and ecological problems as well as the end of something essential (?) about the Human Ego Cage and its functioning.
