    Not seen it but my impression is some viewers are upset the new one seems to be hinting at supernatural stuff actually happening, rather than the "cosmic horror" of s1 being rust's broken self trying to make sense of depravity under late capitalism (ie hallucinatory, allegory)

      Honestly I think most of the stuff this season is hallucinatory too.

        Same, I can see it taking a turn to how the mine has literally poisoned everyone and indigenous lore is fueling some of the hysteria 'forming' the hallucinations.

        Here for it if that's the case, need more media about ecological impacts of capitalism
