Ali attempting to apply the patriarchal pyramid to the house
 
I have never heard such bullshit as she was spouting tonight.

This fever dream of a hierarchal pyramid of power within the house is based on... What? What actual power do the lads have that the others don't? She is really claiming that the house has a patriarchy running it?

As if that house is at all run by a 'patriarchy' Who are the women are the 'most attractive' who are propping this supposed 'patriarchy' up? Hanah? Good grief.

And her pretending that she is powerless and at the bottom of her imaginary pyramid... But oh so brave for calling the def evil patriarchy out despite that of course. She's an absolute freedom fighter and she needs a medal. Probably a Victoria Cross.

Seriously, it was such a stream of utter half baked pseudo intellectual nonsense that is worthy of a 13 year old Tumblr feminist from 2016.

I was embarrassed for her and I was embarrassed that Dean sat there mindlessly nodding.

It was simply all clearly a manipulative attempt to other the lads from the rest of the house and isolate them as a group. To try and set up the idea and seemingly lead the rest of the house in some kind of 'alliance of the oppressed' against them.

Embarrassing…and the gormless Dean..Martha and Lily think she is so knowledgable and falling for her tripe.

Ikr! No wonder she’s so lifeless all the time, she has to be exhausted from all that over analyzing tbh.. i see it simply as people that get on with eachother hanging out with eachother and not others that they don’t get on with as well.. it really doesn’t have to be any more complicated than that.. but leave it to Ali i supose

Ali has spent too much time on Twitter.:laugh:

And I say that as someone that likes Twitter.

Abra 26-10-2024 01:49 AM

It's stupid, she's really trying to push the idea that she's a victim of oppression in there. She isn't

Beso 26-10-2024 07:31 AM

I felt like nominating her for the bb contribution thread.

I saw this on Reddit after I posted this and thought that it's interesting that even other 4th wave intersectional feminist types are calling her out...

"Ali is a well educated, relatively privileged, conventionally attractive white woman who does hold a lot of power in the house simply in her ability to articulate herself. she is obviously not afraid of speaking her mind either and has gained respect from other members of the house such as Lily.

It’s actually tone deaf and quite offensive for her to disregard the impact of other aspects of intersectionality and it doesn’t make her look smart or analytical for coming up with a “hierarchy” instead it looks like she watched “barbie” and called it a day. pleaseeee."

She is ginger though.

The great Eric Cartman off South Park does teach in one of his passages that "gingers have no souls."

And what he says must be true.:hehe:

It was another attempt to get dean on board as a foot soldier
Three main targets dean then those that support the three main targets

Basically saying to dean they have no use for you

Ginger witch would have been funnier but Ali wants to be known as the red witch

Red witch is a Game of Thrones reference though

Oliver_W 26-10-2024 09:09 AM

It was just a load of BS. I wonder how much of it she believed herself tbh.

She's almost like the "NPC" meme, and someone fed a bunch of Tumblr nonsense into an AI generator and asked it to write literal gibberish about the housemates.

AND I want to fish-slap anyone who unironically calls themselves or others "queer."

I don’t understand why none of the other HG’s have pulled Ali up on her verbal diarrhoea!

They don’t need to have an ‘ology to see how she’s trying to manipulate them into nominating (and despising) others her way!
