Vince Gilligan’s Pluribus looks like a sci-fi story about a global hive mind… but there’s something much deeper hiding underneath the surface. In this episode, I break down the real meaning behind the Joining, why Carol Sturka is the only one fighting for individuality, and how the calm, eerily supportive collective might be warning us about something happening in our own world right now.

Why is the hive mind so polite? Why does Gilligan’s newest series feel strangely familiar? And what is Pluribus REALLY trying to tell us?

By the end of this breakdown, you might see the show — and yourself — in a whole new way.

If you’ve been watching Pluribus and have that uneasy feeling you can’t explain… you’re not alone.
