Pluribus has some of the most heavy-handed symbolism and messaging since Junji Ito first picked up a pencil and a concerning amount of people are still writing their little ecofascist posts about how the hive mind that spreads through non-consensual and coercive means and is so sensitive to criticism and real displays of emotion that it kills millions of people if a grieving woman yells at it for killing her wife and lets every animal out of captivity regardless of the animal's health or whether it is suited to the environment it is in is good actually because humans suck. It can't even pluck an apple from a tree but it can psychologically torture someone until she agrees to let them back into her life and you people are still "erm, actually 🖕🤓"-ing the text of the show. Not even subtext the shit you're ignoring in favor of saying that the world's most obvious stand-in for conversion therapy/corrective rape/colonialism/imperialism/genocide/any number of things is good actually is just text. Domtext, even.
