All tea, all shade

What made this endgame incredibly tough to navigate is that not only did I have to tread carefully in a middle position, I would get berated and talked down at for having an opinion that was not just "yes" - I was asked for my honest opinion during the game twice by Gabs & Tatum, and I gave them my honest opinion, and it was met immediately with abuse, threats, and intimidation Gabs immediately made me a counter for 7th because I said I want to think about whether Glitter and Paulette is a smart set for me because it would make me a target, and Tatum had a similar angry reaction to me for being "selfish" - I was labeled as cruel and had the "Brazilian votes" threatened against me, literally for stating opinions in the game. This is truly what made this game difficult, and also why Gabs went up many times. They were quick to belittle people for not agreeing with them, and often would stonewall people in situations where people could have been flexible. Especially in the endgame he made me a counter almost every single round, and then wouldn't understand why I was nominating him in return. I don't think many of you understand how hard it is to go unnominated until Final 4 in a game that had multiple lunatics who just wanted to fight and be messy lmao
