I think something missing from your various comments is the presence of Sol/Entity, because an actual god-like power changes a lot of what you wrote.

Me?

I believe Sol/Entity is just something that human resistance came up with, something like a Wizard of Oz. Maybe originally intended to flock the more devolved humans away from the AI control, and than used to manipulate humans on Earth to do as they needed (go to 22b).

And its god-like powers are just future tech

The AI created the EMF field to prevent it from influencing the ex-humans on the tropical part of the planet. But for some reason, it left the rest of the planet unprotected, and than from there they were able to send the transmission to Earth

Something like that

Ah yes, I forgot he was also called Campion

edit

I think he also received some revelation from the signal to create Mother. He was a mithriac before, right? Probably he also got some kind of message that prompted him to switch sides and do what he did so a necromancer would be sent to 22b

The way I see, the signal was manipulating both sides of the war in order put the pieces it needed in place on 22b


Yeah, I am wondering if what you spoilered is maybe the case, or how real Mother's memories of him are

I'm gonna be honest here, nobody is gonna give a poo poo if you set yourself on fire. Not in the current attention economy. You gotta get big and creative if you want to achieve something, really catch people's attentions. Maybe something milk related, like those European milk protests

I guess I'm in the minority here. I liked S1 and all it's batshit craziness, but found S2 a real slog and gave up after a few episodes. I felt the pace of the show slowed way down and the weirdness was not dialed up quite enough to keep me hooked.

If anything I thought the pace sped up a bunch, I'd be worried people would be too overwhelmed by the amount of weird poo poo in s2

Regretful Humming
Apr 27, 2015
Yeah, season 2 dialed up the weirdness even more than season 1.

Edit:

If anything, the first part of season 2 let you kind of settle into the weird poo poo from season 1 and just before you get comfortable, it knocks you over with even crazier poo poo.

I also thought S2 was both faster and weirder than 1, but I like them both

Also S1 was less weird ion general, but the snake birth surely took most by surprise. I guess in S2 we were already expecting the weird

Man, what the fuck, man?
This show strikes a great balance for me. It’s not perfect, but it’s weird/off enough that every decision I’d disagree with on another show just makes me go “huh…ok!”

And this is true literally from the opening scene.

In this season of Raised by Wolves!!!!!

Mother's lovechild gets put in vegan jail
Father joins a fight club so he can get enough semen to make a new girlfriend
Sue loses her heart to a tree she found in a d12
Campion loses his heart to a girl with no face
An extremely online man can't live without the trust of those he loves
Paul is turned into a pomegranate by CABAL
Vita becomes a gamer
Tempest gives her child up for adoption
Marcus meets a neanderthal and turns him into a zergling with tooth dust
Hunter uses his 205 IQ to build an android that flips you off
Melons are distributed

Good show imo

If there is a season three, I fully expect the giant hoversnake corpse to molt on the beach and transform into a cloaked alligator.

Operation: Melon Reclamation is a go.

Also, the source of the Sol transmission will be found, and it’s an enormous biomechanical AI voiced by Malcolm McDowell.

Based on the intro and panspermia, Sol responds to radio waves to detect human life worthy of serving him. Kelper 22b is likely the origin point and is 600 light-years away from Earth. But he heard radio waves faster than 600 years, which means he has listening station. Likely other worlds that were seeded and then conquered.

The inescapable conclusion is that in S3 we are getting another space ship. From another Earth.

I kind of love Campion at this point because he's a loving hippy. Objectionable to his strictly rationalist mother, objectionable to the hierarchical religious people around him. He's just out there vibing and people are not about it.
