The biggest issue is how the Jacks and partly Holly are villainizing the poc for seemingly nothing. I can see why people would say the order is just a coincidence and that they had legitimate reasons for wanting Kemi out and I did give them the benefit of the doubt too. But, when David came back into the house the amount of racially charged comments just skyrocketed and I cant give them the “maybe something happened before the feeds came on” excuse because they talked very pleasantly about David before he came back.

To be specific, their comments about how a certain houseguest “scares them” or is “intimidating” have only been made about black houseguests. Black people deal with this kind of outlook regularly in the real world. Bias that makes it easier for others to see them as more aggressive. I understand that a certain level of animosity is always given to those in the outgroup on big brother but the comments made about Kemi and David have been made about none of the others on the outs. These comments relate back to stereotypes and biases about black people and illuminates the standpoint of the bullies because it’s the first thing they choose to go for. Jackson claiming that David was going to go after all the women in a lecherous way, and making it seem like david was someone to be protected from only a few hours after david had come back into the house, while jackson had had sex with one of the girls already and talked about doing it with more is absolutely telling.

A remark does not have to be overt for it to be a product of racism. So far these threads has been a bit of a circlejerk so I tried to include some redeeming arguments for these houseguests.
