I've seen elsewhere people say that the hive manipulated Carol, but did they?
The hive was nothing but helpful, Carol attacked one of them, nearly killed one of them, and they backed off, but still helped her. Carol did something wrong, Carol showed remorse, the hive came back.
Both Carol and Manousos want the hive to be "evil", but they're not. Diabaté doesn't view them as evil and he's enjoying life... but as we saw last episode with the fake storyline and the sandwich something isn't quite right either. They're not evil... But they're not human either. The world isn't at peace, the world no longer exists.
They're not evil (the concepts don't really mean much to them), but that doesn't necessarily negate the validity in opposing what they've done.
I agree, hive can manipulate people by omiting truth, but it wasn't a case this time.
