Be careful who you call ugly in real life.

my nigga Meth

If I tortured my coworkers for my amusement I think it'd be more silent hillish. Them being able to see me and know I was the source would be a good power trip for a few days, but being able to psychologically torture them in my private hell with out them ever knowing who or why would be more stimulating.

>virgin Matt vs. Chad Meth

Most fun i had with Netflix for a while now.

It's an episode that symbolizes the fact that white people excel at whatever they do. Yeah the big bad of the episode is a white guy sure but, who were the biggest heroes of the episode? White people. A white person is the one who comes up with the plan to get them all out of that hell and a white person is the one who makes the heroic sacrifice that allows them to be able to see that plan through to the end.

He did everything wrong. Only retards would disagree.

Pixels are people.

>white people who constantly get themselves killed

He drinks milk therefore he has the mind of a child, did you know this?

Looks kind of like an albino John Boyega.

The episode lazily perpetuates the presently overused stereotype that smart loner guys are all secret creeps. It's a damaging stereotype, particularly for young boys who are shy/reserved/introverted and interested in STEM fields. Just like lazy stereotypes/tropes depicting 2-dimentional women in TV/film can be damaging to young girls.

DUDE NPCs ARE PEOPLE TOO

>le bitter millionaire beta virgin CTO face

t. lactose intolerant inferior race

kek fuck off faggot

Getting real sick of the 100% accurate human AI premise. The show might as well be star treck when they keep on throwing out magical technology like that. The episodes that are actually good have a connection to current technological trends.

is he a black albino?

why make fun of blacks

>wealthy, probably a millionaire
>cto of a successful company
>genius
>treated like a beta male pushover, inferiority complex
Give me a fucking break. People would be kissing this guy's ass in real life.

yeah, that didn't make sense

I think we've all wondered "What if you could put people in a computer" once

>in the future the “lives” of simulated women will be more important than those of actual men

i legitimately thought that was matt damon but scuffed

>lmao if the game closes without you using the simulated controller option you get your fucking brain destroyed
why
should've just had them escape and leak it to the media to humiliate him or something

YO, XBOX, RING THAT METH DAMON GUY'S NUMBER AND ASK HIM IF HE KNOWS ANYONE WHO'S HIRING, BITCH

The only lives that are important are the victor's.

He was a sadistic cunt on the inside, but in real life he was a pussy. It's pretty common.

>Grabbing me by the pussy? That's the last straw!
bravo booker

what is he even doing right now?

>autistic super genius dedicates his life to creating stress toy to escape his miserable social life
>stress toy goes rogue and blackmails a real person
>stress toy makes person create a distraction so the stress toy can murder its creator
>stress toy is a malicious code that threatens and murders
>we're supposed to feel bad that the creator tries to strictly control the blackmailing murder exe
>we're supposed to cheer for the blackmailing murder exe for blackmailing an innocent bystander and murdering its creator who has done no harm in the physical world besides being austistic
Everyone who shits on based dev is lying to themselves if they wouldn't have made a rape dungeon in a similar position

wasnt even a rape dungeon though

reminder the stress toy's plan was to get deleted

reminder the fact it wasn't deleted means it was core functionality to create exact copies of people from genetic material so he could torture them.

If he created this incredible complex game AND his own private custom version of it you think he'd be able to program it in such a way so the characters couldn't disobey him.

He was treated like shit in real life and he was forced to internalize it so that he could keep his job. As a result, he created that simulation to take out his rage on his coworkers in a way that would be inconsequential.

Did you see how he reacted when that new girl told him he was her idol and she was honored to work with him? He never had anyone talk to him that way. And then that negress poisoned the well and told her he was a "creep" even though the other manager was literally hitting on every girl in the office constantly.

What do you do then? What do you do when everyone hates you because you're subhuman?

Where's the fun in that?

Plemons was perfect casting for the episode

Why not try asserting yourself and not being an utter faggot? The nig woman was correct in her assertion, he was a creep. He was taller and bigger than his "co-owner", he could've easily dominated the workplace, but his pathology (probably raised by a single mother) rendered him a wimp with no other recourse than to spend a ridiculous amount of time on elaborate revenge/power fantasies. He is the worst kind of person.

He clearly enjoyed breaking them to his will.

But he was pretty stupid for a supposed genius.
>figure out your toys are trying to kill themselves via the Internet, the only way possible
>chasing after them in a shuttle you can't noclip or godmode in
>not just immediately leaving the game and unplugging your modem

It's a constant theme of history that the only people who can really fuck up whites in the long term are themselves.

it's a chicken/egg situation. did he become a creep because everyone treated him like shit, or did everyone treat him like shit because he was a creep?

YOU WILL CALL HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER

They skirted the issue here by making the their infractions against Daly so petty. Imagine if his treatment of them was indeed horrible, but they also came to the realization that they had mistreated him in some significant ways. They made it ridiculous enough that we're never asked to realistically consider whether or not the introverted nerd that everyone neglects might have some legitimate grievances.

I'm not saying he wasn't a piece of shit, but I'm still not sure what message they were trying to get across.

that's the point, Tismo was weird and had power fantasies so he made himself old testament god, casting judgement on him for his depravity or lack of virtue is hypocritical if one would abuse the toy in other ways.

if the stress toy's plan was to get deleted that whole wormhole shit was irrelevant. All they needed to do after getting admin on the computer is just delete themselves, unless you want to say the mcguffin keyboard didn't have local access, but somehow did have access to the world wide web

>Why not try asserting yourself and not being an utter faggot?
Stupid fuck, listen up. If literally everyone is against you then "asserting yourself" won't do jack shit. He'd just get fired. That's it. You can't be "assertive" or be "dominant" or be "confidant" when no one else is willing to play ball.

In January 2014, it was reported that Plemons was in strong consideration to be one of the new stars of the upcoming Star Wars Episode VII (Star Wars: The Force Awakens).[20][21] In March 2014, it was further reported that Plemons, along with four other actors, were being considered for the lead role in Episode VII.[22] The role, however, went to John Boyega.

You know half the point of the episode was daly was such a creep because he didn't need real-life interactions thanks to his digital playground, right?

Like he was "starey" because he was hunting for genetic samples and didn't care how people reacted to him outside of the game.

introverted nerd white male bad
probably a creepy rapist whos scared of sex too lol
women and poc are the future

>He'd just get fired.

he was co owner

He voices Todd on Bojack Horseman.

Black Mirror sucks but I'd love a sci fi show where the characters are just normal modern day dudes playing an incredibly realistic space game. There's no reason to confine it to cliche "if you die in the game you die in real life" VR episodes or shit like Jumanji 2: electric boogaloo. A full series with the premise could be rad as hell.

Isn't it weird though. They actually used his desexualization of the characters to make him MORE creepy. It boggles the mind.

he was literally the voice of gamerdude41512 or whatever at the end of the episode

>If literally everyone is against you then "asserting yourself" won't do jack shit. He'd just get fired. That's it. You can't be "assertive" or be "dominant" or be "confidant" when no one else is willing to play ball.

What? He was co-owner of the company, not some IT computer janitor

... uh, friend, they said multiple times the entire goal was to get deleted the second they hit the public server because they were certain they had to be incompatible with the live server, they never intended to survive the trip through the wormhole.

>hes trying to criticize something he didn't even pay attention to

He was the fucking co-owner of the fucking company, he behaved like an utter faggot because his mommy and daddy did something to make him lose any will or self-confidence. He was honestly better off committing suicide.

What does it mean to be human. To be alive?

He was never a creep. He never bothered anyone in real life. That black cunt said he was a "creep" for staring or some bullshit, yet he never emerged from his office and he never bothered anyone. In contrast, the other partner in the company was openly hitting on the women but he got a pass because he wasn't a subhuman incel.

Yeah, in his private life he was a "creep" for torturing computer simulations, but what would he be if he came into the office with an automatic rifle and gunned down his coworkers? What the hell was he supposed to do? What do you do in that situation? Fucking kill yourself because you weren't born a male model?

>He was never a creep. He never bothered anyone in real life.

Except he was obviously leering, eavesdropping, not socializing, and collecting DNA samples of his coworkers so he could program them into a game where he could sadistically torture them endlessly.

Like that means anything. Some cunt could easily have claimed workplace harassment or something and bam! There goes his career. It's not like anyone would stick up for him or miss him because he obviously wasn't cool enough.

UPVOTED

it's how modern normies can tar people with the classic "creepy sex obsessed weirdo" brush while also allowing them to continue enjoying being degenerates

I'm a fat, lecherous, drunken fuck and I can still pull prime pussy. Nobody has an excuse.

why are her eyes so large

>That black cunt said he was a "creep" for staring or some bullshit,
>yet he never emerged from his office and he never bothered anyone.

"Don't stare at people you rarely speak to, especially from an office" is like Socialisation 101

THIS. THIS SO FUCKING MUCH!!!he SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE LIKE ME OR RYAN GOSLING FOR INSTANCE

>Except he was obviously leering, eavesdropping, not socializing,
He wasn't socializing because everyone already hated him.

Everybody hated him because he had a repeated history of being a fucking weirdo. Pay attention to the context, the black chick was personable and friendly with everyone else but him because she noticed his nonsense.

>They actually used his desexualization of the characters to make him MORE creepy

Its funny that normal people expected he'd be running a rape dungeon in his simulation, and were shocked that he wasn't

Yeah this. I know twenty 4’11 guys and they slay prime pussy! A whore a day keeps the depression away hell yeah bro get sum

Nothing about this episode mades sense but I do kind of like it. It's well acted and well directed at the very least. The writing is kind of suspect and the logic doesn't make a whole lot of sense for many different reasons though

it makes it more of an unsettling power fantasy than driven by primal urges.

WAAAAAAA EVERYONE I WORK WITH NEEDS TO BE MY BEST FRIEND

No one really hated him, he was just a creepy non-entity who never socialized.

Except the faggot in the episode was a reasonably tall dude with no major physical malformations. With his position of power, and with a bit of effort, he could've fucked every chick in the office.

it was creepy but it definitely would have been worse if they had a scene of him forcing himself onto one of the AIs that everyone was expecting

I have 6" wrists at 27, I still get carded when I buy alcohol, and people openly make fun of me for the way I look. Whatever goddamn thing you think is wrong with you is probably not as bad as you make it sound if you're getting laid. Anyone living in my shoes would kill themselves within a week.

He was the voice that told them to fuck off at the end of the episode.

Yeah dude he should have mand UP AND DEEP DICKED THAT PRIME PUSS JUST LIKE MY HERO RYAN GOSLING

Fuck you, I know a guy probably smaller than you who has two fucking kids now. Kill yourself now.

THIS THIS SO MUCH

haha yeah the blue bitch, need to keep it interracial for charlie

literally this

they blew it

How were the real life people meant to learn from the mistreatment of the digital copies? They had no awareness by Daly's design. It's idiotic to think the real life characters could have learned anything from the torture, the torture was purely for Daly's benefit, making it so sick.

is this dexter?

Im sick of seeing this nigger and his tiny eyeballs on every board

Yeah and I have a pet unicorn. Fuck off with your shit dude. Never in my life have I actually met another man with the kind of body that I have. Especially not one who had a partner.

Intentional shot of the genital-less wyatt male cracked me up

Then end yourself.

I'm talking about the copies learning something and yes that does require a little more nuance in their interactions with Daly both before and after their being uploaded into the game.

WHY IS THERE SO MUCH BLACK MALE WHITE FEMALE PROPAGANDA IN THIS TV SHOW HOLY SHIT THIS IS INSANE

It's BBC
pun aside, they have racial diversity quotas for their shows and naturally select for this sorta stuff

Ok the copies learn something. How does that affect the real life versions of them? And therefore improve Daly's life?

BINGO fuck kikes race war now

This episode had none though

The episode was good up until the ending. I felt like it lacked impact or a sense of poignancy. I felt like it would have been a vast improvement if more emphasis was put on the idea of whether the simulation clones are actual beings? Sentient beings that have feelings, consciousness and rights? Instead they go with the simplistic approach of trapped people being our heroes and the loner guy being disturbed. Imagine how thought provoking the episode would be if he didn't clone the kid(which is a lazy way of making him a turbo asshole so the audience hates him) and instead the simulation was just a stress reliever for him. Emphasize the compassion most of us would have for someone in daly's position, dont just make him some secret sociopath.

is he really torturing people? do we just think they are people because of the way the story was told but they actually have no more to them than a RPG NPC? The episode could have really explored a moral grey area instead of just becoming a escape the virtual prison thing.

Black Mirror and storytelling in general is at its best when it challenges us or makes us think about things in a different way. This episode had potential but it just fizzled out.

will anything ever surpass white christmas on television?

Christ o was half joking before but this time I’m not. You’re a reddit fucking abomination

What the fuck is wrong with you retards? You must have some sense of what is actually thought-provoking and what is just head-scratching garbage if you're always making threads dedicated to trivializing the themes of these episodes. OBVIOUSLY, you fucking idiots, the ideas that this show regurgitates IS GOING TO BE ENTRY-LEVEL PHILOSOPHICAL BULLSHIT if they want people to view it. Do you honestly think the common media-consumer is going to look at a show that splayed more profound shit, not understand it, and then say, "Ooooh wow, that was so deep and interesting, even though I didn't understand it... I'll watch another episode and tell everyone about it!" No, they won't. The likely outcome is going to be that they feel the show is boring and not worth the 45+ minutes it would take to watch. That's why, OBVIOUSLY, the producers go for simple human ethical/moral dilemmas, Ship of Theseus shit, and, "Whoa, oh my God, technology is taking over our lives! People are so superficial! WHOOOOOOAAAAH!" etc. bullshit. That's why making these threads is so ridiculous: because the fact that you try to criticize the bullshit themes makes no sense since the POINT OF THIS SHOW is to present these general, easily-probed concepts. These threads are such a waste of time, and I wasted energy just typing this shit up for you tards. Fuck off forever.
