Tommy, Nicole and Cliff have all been idiots. Jackson is exhibiting typical abuser behavior. When speaking about Nicole, Cliff and Tommy, he basically blames them for his lying hypocritical behavior. "I wouldn't had to have done all this if they hadn't tried to betray us." reminds me too much of "If you'd just behaved, I wouldn't have to hit you." He's okay with playing a ruthless game and doing whatever he has to do to take himself and Holly to final 2, but he refuses to acknowledge that others may be trying to do the same. And then he talks about his guilt and cries over his behavior, admitting how awful it is, which really looks like he's trying to manipulate the viewers, knowing full well how the internet will be reacting to what he's doing. I hate that guy so much. And Holly is just pathetic. I'm sure the producers will bring them back. They LOVE horrible people, ESPECIALLY showmances (like Bayleigh/Swaggy). I do hope the reality TV trend of embracing and idolizing awful people will eventually subside, but I don't trust Los Angeles to give up its favorite form of entertainment.
But what really bothers me the most was Tommy talking about how he can respect Jackson's behavior as good strategy. I don't. I can acknowledge when playing dirty works as an effective move, but I don't respect it at all. That's probably the biggest problem I have with Big Brother. The "respect" given to disrespectful and bullying behavior at the expense of others because of the effects it has on a personal level. It's absolutely nauseating. It's why I particularly hated seeing people like Mike Boogie, Evel Dick and Kaycee Clark win.
