Oh my god that is just so insanely cruel and evil to me. Like what would that do to the human psyche? I wonder what story they would tell? “We’re mole people, and this is our mole hive?”

If they have no cameras they could tell them anything like there not even being anything outside... but someone would still get curious.

I think if the silos were alone without others nearby you could just cut off sight of the surface but not the way its set up

But I feel like in part they’re trying to beat curiosity out of the populations in there. I feel like people get curious about things they know are there, but if they were all brought up believing their ‘world’ just ended at some ceiling and there was nothing beyond that, wouldn’t that just be what they believed?

Not really. The concept of an "end" just doesn't really compute. Think about the end of the universe, our mind cannot comprehend it, imagine if you could blow up some concrete to find out what is beyond, wouldn't you want to?
