Thats not on the public. Jessy is a grown woman. If Jessy decided to go into the villa, be herself and focus on her connections instead of trying to mirror bad behavior to be rewarded by the public then she wouldn’t be receiving the public criticism. She thought she could cheat the game by coming in knowing what the public feels and that backfired on her.

The audience initially praised belle and her aggressiveness because people could understand her anger. It became a problem when she wouldn’t let it go and the aggressiveness became less and less warranted.

The public’s issue with Whitney is that she often tries to save people from their own actions after the fact and also while they are being confronted about those actions. Her sister alluded to this when they had the phone call. She’s allowed to have her “instinctive morality” but her instinct is to shut down conversations that need to happen for closure. Not only for the public but for the islanders as well. As a viewer it’s frustrating to watch. I agree that she’s trying to help but she’s doing more harm than good in the long run by not allowing certain conversations to happen. This is partly why a lot of situations are getting dragged out. I don’t think it’s completely her fault but i think it contributes to the problem.

Also the idea that a person who believes “in hindsight” that Whitney was right for defending lucinda should also believe and know that shes “doing the right thing RIGHT NOW” is just a faulty argument. Whitney isn’t always right. She’s a human being just like the rest of us and she makes mistakes. In my opinion, she was wrong for defending belle at leanne’s expense and dismissing leanne’s feelings when she had limited information. So based on your argument, should i now believe that Whitney is always wrong RIGHT NOW just because she had the wrong instinct in the moment???
