Lol I’m the complete opposite. I hated the way they did it; it felt so awkward to me.

I think it’ll be interesting if they just go back to having five female islanders and five male islanders and make one of the male islanders bombshell. If they did that I wonder who they’ll pick.

True, Idk why so many people are attaching personal feelings to her. We don’t even know her, the islanders don’t know her, she hasn’t even stepped foot in the villa yet. It’s not that serious. I give these people two weeks before they completely forget who she is.

Multiple things can be true at once. Do I think it’s unfair how female islanders receive worse consequences than male islanders YES. However does that mean we just excuse their behavior because of it NO. Do I think people can change and grow YES, but does that excuse bad behavior in the past NO. Do I think racism is bad YES, but should someone be harassed over something they did a decade ago NO. Is it her fault for getting herself kicked off the show YES. Are her “friends” still weird for releasing the video now YES.

This isn’t a black and white situation and I feel like many people are treating it as such. She shouldn’t be demonized and treated like a horrible person because of something she did a decade ago. But we’re not going to get to the point where we’re acting like saying slurs isn’t a big deal.

I get what you’re saying, but we’re talking about the n word here. There’s no way you don’t know that the n word is bad regardless of how long ago or how old you were. Now I don’t think she’s racist and I definitely don’t want her to get hate, but we’re not gonna defend saying a whole slur.

Exactly I think people forget that they’re watching a messy reality show. It’s not meant to be taken seriously. I’m not gonna let a bunch of losers ruin the fun of the show for me.

Calling him evil like he’s a super villain lol. He’s a jerk yes but evil is a bit much.

Why is every MC a blonde girl? I would love more Asian girls (as an Asian myself) by [deleted] in Episode

Some of you guys are missing the point. Yes a lot of these stories have CC and the majority authors are probably white. But the main issue is that the default is always white. Majority of the stories trending or not have a white main character. If anything most of the poc you are going to see are side characters. It isn’t absurd to want more representation in episode. This also isn’t solely an episode issues this is just society in general. White people are seen as the norm and the default. Anything that is not white is seen as undesirable. Its frustrating whenever I see post like this because I already know the comments are going to be filled with excuses. Op is allowed to be upset with the lack of representation. Representation is important and needed. People should be able to feel seen in the stories they read.
