    Been binging Severance over the past few days.

    I love it, but what in the ever living fuck is happening.

        That it is not. It’s something great though.

        Creepy and unnerving.

          It is indeed great.

          And I’m on a few severance reddit subs and it amazes me how most serious commenters seem to ignore all the torture and abuse when that’s the crux of the story

            OMG it literally is the main aspect of the innies.

            Psychological (and physical at times) torture .

            The concept of working for the sake of working and not really knowing what you do or why is very disturbing.

              or whether or not people are suffering if they can’t consciously remember the torture

              the lack of thought and lack of moral principles of commenters astounds me sometimes , it’s like people need things spelled out

              Yes, it’s wrong

              no, they didn’t give consent

              you can’t give consent to torture anyway

              in that moment that person, that soul who suffers, has rights, it doesn’t matter if they can’t remember later
