It has a lot of ignorance The last of us. Cardisps The outbreak does not play favorite (of course out of Eli’s immunity), so people are constantly ripped from their loved ones. For the rest of the supplies, the fight between human factions tears the right and left of families from the right and left, and the survivors are always left to pieces and continue their lives with their lives.
But with all this injustice, this decision was not an example at the town meeting this week. Jackson made the right call.

In this case, a few months after Abe’s death and the walls of Jackson were broken by the infection forces, we get a meeting of a tense city with a tension speech by Eli (Bella Ramsey) in which he urges Jackson’s citizens to seek Joel’s killers and seek justice.
The show has presented this speech as a victorious moment for Eli: he wrote his speech as if he had told him (the young Mazino), and he was able to end his usual anger. And yet, the Jackson City Council voted against Eli’s request in the Land Slide. And they were right to do this.
Just to be completely clear, when I say that the people of the city have got this right, I’m not talking about high -minded ideas or spiritual ideas. I am not here to tell you that the burning desire of revenge will eliminate your soul, or that revenge never heals wounds, it just makes a new thing. This is the responsibility of the show. What I am saying is that Jackson’s citizens were fine that they do not want to help Eli’s complete and fully practical level.
It is ridiculous to ask him. I mean, of course, we are quite closed in Eli’s point of view The last of usSo we know how painful it was to lose Joel for him. But for everyone, Jackson, a peaceful wall city and the safest place in which any of these people have been, since any of these works began, there was a huge break. There was a flood from the zombies on the streets, some unknown persons were killed, and a large amount of money is still necessary to keep things safe from remote.
And in the context of all this tragedy, damage and destruction, Eli went to the meeting and demanded 16 best fighters and strong citizens of Jackson to hunt people living about 900 miles away. Look, we do not know how many people live in Jackson, or how many of them are good enough to send this hunt for revenge. But based on what we have seen, it seems that it is an important part of the city’s population.
To describe all this in another way: Jackson’s citizens are absolutely irrational. But it should not be so surprised for us. Nevertheless, we know that Eli is very fast, short -lived and beautiful. It is not really criticism of it or to say that it does not have many other features, just that it is not one of its natural power to plan and plan the health of the wider community.
It can all feel like criticism of the show or its story, but not really. This is a huge addition to its character and wider world The last of us That Eli is not magically skilled, who will feel brutally with her, and that Jackson’s residents are able to recognize how ridiculous her request is. And, of course, it develops an amazing moment where Dinah (Isabella Merced) realizes that Eli’s fool is planning to do something and he will not allow it to be alone – or is in preparation.
As with his imagery of Seth, The last of us We want to know that Eli’s struggle is being suspected, at the same time she wants to be able to move beyond her anger. This is a subtle but effective way of reminding us how the story is rooted in Eli’s point of view and rational argument. Of course, this is a bit of a double sword: By presenting us with a very reasonable alternative to Eli’s quest for venble, the show left us unable to harm his character and to associate us with his anger. But, for at least now, the Town Hall of Episode 3 descends to the right of the same line.
