the colony

In the beginning the colonist seems to be more open to different ideas and they were willing to help people. When they first got there and they had supplies it wasn't necessary for them to go out and build things for food because they had food. They also saw people that were there and wanted food and gave up some of there own food. They were more open to people being there until they were attacked and that is when they realized that they needed protection. i believe that this is where they finally realized the situation they were in and how real it was. Over time the colonist worried more about food and protection more than hygiene and being conservative. They began breaking social norms by eating things out of what we would normally eat and not covering themselves as they normally would. They value things more than they normally would and take less risk knowing how scarce food is. When they see people they get weapons to protect themselves rather than allowing them near as they did before. They become more hostile and violent as the show progresses and they run out of food. They become egotistical and begin to care less about the others safety and more for there own. They have completely thrown out the social norms because of the situation they have been put in. Nature has conditioned them to go in when people come or when it ains and to fight hard to get food an s do what ever they can to survive
