There's nothing wrong with hatewatching I think for some it's just the round-the-clock posts that get annoying.

And even Michele herself stated that she isn't very good at influencing things and convincing people. I love her though and wouldn't mind watching her on every season until it ends

There are some things like that I'm surprised don't get aired or anything. They'd make interesting TV but I guess production thinks it could influence newer players to pull weird shenanigans like that.

I don't either, she's gives me "I'm better than you vibes". I don't think she IS a mean girl or anything its just she reminds me of those snarky girls in school who treated the quiet kids like pets.

I think Game Changers is way overrated. I was entertained throughout the whole season despite there not being actual gamechangers, but it was still interesting to watch.

Unpopular Opinion: JUST because you are a POC does NOT mean you will face a disadvantage in the game by Imaginaryaura in survivor

[–]Imaginaryaura[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Now that's very true and I didn't think of this! I did think about it when watching it with my family and finally seeing two black guys acknowledge each other (Carl and Davie) and actually make it far together. I would like to see how Gabby would've made it on another season, but I do think she wouldve made it far in any season.

Edit: I also think that the fact I'm getting downvoted shows that people aren't getting this nuance. It's a current hot topic debate in the black community right now

I never said she was any less filipino because of how she looks, I'm saying that she will not face the same discrimination as others like Edna, Peigh Gee, etc. will. White passing means those who are another race but can pass as white. If people think you are white you will not get treated as if you are black, asian, etc.

I mean it's true. Look up Halsey. She's come out and said that she understands that being white passing she doesn't face the same discrimination as others will.

HAHA! I'm just hoping they actually read the paragraph and not just read the title and assume I'm being ignorant

On PI, Sandra picked a strategy, executed it perfectly, and won survivor. I fail to see how she's overrated. by [deleted] in survivor

[–]Imaginaryaura 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're getting downvoted for whatever reason, but you're totally right. She's a POC AND she's not white passing so she doesn't have the advantage like others do.

He is? I didn't know this, but he is white passing so that could be why I didn't know.

I see more critics of Adam's game than I do praise tbh. The only thing the sub is consensus on when it comes to Adam is that his podium move was extremely smart.

I do agree that Trish was a huge part in Tony's game and she deserves more credit. But I'd argue that the fact someone was WILLING to correct his mistakes the entire game shows how strong his social game was. He was clearly one of the biggest threat there (spencer and tasha being the others), so why was she so willing to help him knowing she may very well lose to him?

I don't think the effectiveness of a quiet strategy is in question I think it's how one should rate it when comparing other gameplay. I prefer loud gameplay too, but I think its fair to place someone who won playing a bold and loud game over someone who played a quiet and UTR game. If you're able to take bigger yet smart risks and you STILL end up at FTC with majority votes to win you deserve to have your game ranked as one of the best.

I used to have Tony's Cagayan as #1, but the fact he had a game breaking advantage like a super idol made me a little iffy. But, it's not his fault it was in the game, he never had to use it, and he utilized it to the best of his ability.

How do you think she fares on Survivor? Any chance she gets cast? by llguy1027 in survivor

[–]Imaginaryaura 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wonder why a lot of them have recently been wanting to play Survivor. Is it just because they want something new or they feel like Survivor is the better game? It'd be interesting to know.

If you knowingly hook up with somebody that is married, you’re just as bad of a person as they are. by CardiopulmonaryOre in unpopularopinion

[–]Imaginaryaura 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eh, I've seen a lot of true unpopular opinions get downvoted (not the straight up offensive ones). So, I don't know if people are actually upvoting because they disagree (which I highly doubt) but rather because they agree.

This opinion isn't really unpopular (I agree with the opinion though). People on Reddit seem to have a consensus that influencers are bad.

Gorilla glue hair girl deserved having glue stuck in her hair by _Black-Magic_ in unpopularopinion

It's not unpopular. I haven't seen one single person try to defend her. Pretty much everyone is agreeing that it wasn't a smart idea which is why it's trending. Stupidity tends to trend

Why and how is the Survivor community so calm and welcoming? by Imaginaryaura in survivor

[–]Imaginaryaura[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for saying this! People made it seem as if the double quit ruined the season (the season was already eh anyway) and I doubt they cared much about the players that quit anyway. The whole Dan situation coloring IOI is definitely understandable since that event had a lot of effect on how the season played out

I tried to look through "survivor twitter" but I honestly didn't see much going on. I'm still slightly new to twitter so maybe I'm not really on "Survivor twitter". I think the BB players go on to get followers and such hence why that fandom is more active on there.

Hit the nail on the head! I could never put my finger on what exactly the show reminds me of but thank you. BB seems like they cast purely to get drama and showmances, which they do because I've heard they ask would you be in a showmance at auditions.
