I can't tell if you're joking? He was hiding...as best he could in a one room shack.

It was just a random encounter with a hermit who has probably lived there for years, not just a little while.

There's a lot in that sequence if you look.

When they first pull off the road there's a walker coming up behind them and they pay no mind to it. In season 1 or 2 they would've lost their minds. They've obviously adapted to this new world and can recognize real threats.

There's 300+ million people in the US and most of them are zombies now. They are everywhere. What looked like a manageable situation in the beginning quickly became unmanageable.

They come across the hermit in a random encounter and nonchalantly kill him and feed him to walkers to escape. It shows a callousness that wasn't there before. It shows, to me anyways, a regression of humanity to a tribal state, if you're not in our tribe you're expendable, you can't be trusted.

Sometimes we need to look beyond the special effects to see the story.
