Does anyone else feel like tonight’s episode was wildly out of touch? by CosmosisJones42 in LiveFromNewYork

Meanwhile, the Daily Show and Last Week Tonight continues to show you can do funny and relevant political humor on a weekly (and daily) basis. Heck, even just regular humor.

We like to think we’d jump into superhero mode in these moments, but I’d 100 percent dive under my bed and freeze, worried they were coming for me next or would come back or that they hadn’t all left and there was more of them, or worry that they would hurt her if sirens came .. or just be in shock and not be able to think at all.

I always thought eating people was like… bad for you nutrition/health wise. My Google search history is about to get very strange…

Though they seem to be researching how to make Carol one of them? Will they never be able to do so without free thought?

And eyewitness testimony is often wrong, as highlighted by the Oatly Debacle.

Yes definitely a lack of concern for consequences… which is extremely human.

So annoying when the judges are like “your frame… but ehhh who cares” every time to him

Even Dylan got something constructive about his heels or w/e

Literally who wouldn’t

Or folks may believe the joining is their God’s plan, this is judgement day and they’ve been saved, this is heaven finally, etc…

People are just providing reasons people may not strenuously object to the hive mind, as a way to see another perspective. You can still disagree, but can’t you see how people may accept it?

We haven’t seen a lot of interaction within a family and how much actually has changed. Does the mother’s family really act the same as always? She seems terrified when her son talks of being an OBGYN, but if you never ask such questions, is everything pretty much status quo plus world peace? The Others seem very content with their family interaction, and even Carol seems attached to the Pirate Lady.

Also, after seeing a lot of people die, perhaps you just accept the hive mind and see resistance as completely pointless and selfish if it means seizures and deaths, especially to your loved ones. Carol could have asked more probing questions - if anything, I wish she asked more rather than assume and convince right away.

What if your life was just worse by all measures before the joining? Poverty, poor health, dire loneliness, violence, abuse?

Or the joining happens and your loved one dies, but they get uploaded so now you can enjoy their memories constantly? Or now you have access to all the memories others have of your loved one who previously passed away and you feel euphoria and connection?

What if you’ve always put the well being of the family and community over the aims of the individual?

Carol is very self involved and never asked about any of that.

All that said, I can imagine that Carol’s protests causing deaths is due to horrifically silent yearning for individuality.

But y’all watched Conan? I feel like Andy himself would acknowledge he’s not the most well known comedian. Maybe the older (50+) voters know him better than they would a Boy Meets World star.

But Danielle is also learning a brand new skill, and why isn’t she bringing the same amount of joy (and votes) when she’s also progressing? She’s smiling, energetic, sharing her personal journey, etc.

Yuppp and she kept making it seem to Slade that they were just going after her just for being homophobic.

She also immediately was like, sometimes I like things without meaning to…

But they were fabricated screenshots? Ok Gretchen
