Description

Is Pluribus a vision of collective bliss or a deeply unsettling loss of humanity?

In this bonus conversation, besties Stacy and Daynah dive into their curiously different interpretations of Pluribus, a provocative sci-fi series that asks what happens when individuality disappears and happiness becomes mandatory.

Through a feminist and cultural lens, they explore hive minds, consent, toxic positivity, female rage, AI parallels, and whether connection without choice can ever be ethical.

SPOILER ALERT! If you haven’t watched Pluribus yet and want to go in unspoiled, come back after you’ve seen it.
