re: Silo (Apple TV+) Season Long Thread (No Book Spoilers)

I have a dumb question. Why do those who go outside to clean have a fake imagine in their helmet? If you think about it, everyone associates going out to clean as a death sentence. Why not just let them see the harsh reality of the world outside? Going a step further, if you want to keep the silos inhabitants in line, why show them an image on a giant screen that projects this beautiful countryside? Wouldn’t that just make people want to go outside? Now if I’m looking out the window at a barren, desolate landscape day after day, I’m pretty motivated to keep my arse inside. Go outside and clean? Nah, f that. I’m good right here
