Nah she’s acting how a lot of people would act tbh. Almost a billion had to be killed for the hivemind to get to this. That is catastrophic anyway you look at it. The hint at the end of the last episode could be organic material recycled for efficiency. Maybe human corpses too which would be hilarious especially with the wolves digging her fiance out maybe being a hint. That would horrify anyone and we all know those near billions gotta go somewhere. What happened to your grandpa Laxmi?
It’s not like those people were killed intentionally, they had to speed it up because the military discovered them. And presumably if they didn’t speed it up, and the military did their thing, many more people would die. It’s true human corpses were hinted at, but surely there’s plenty of other things that could be shocking to Carol? The hivemind isn’t really exactly comparable to communism, but revolutions often require large amounts of bloodshed, because the right-wing military is going to slaughter you otherwise.
The hivemind explained their whole attitude to death, and honestly it’s pretty logical. They won’t kill or harm any humans or animals, but if it’s already dead there isn’t any real need to respect it. That’s why they’ll cook already dead animals for the living people, but won’t slaughter them. It’s not like the dead person would care what happens with their body, they’re dead. It seems like a pretty ethical and morally consistent position to me.
