Anyway
Ryan just felt really... one-dimensional? Like there's no denying he got along with everyone but I found Dan's relationships with Hardeep, Nick, and Gabby more interesting than Ryan's relationship with say, Sally. Like maybe two-dimensional but he's still as basic as a square
and like. beyond relief and happiness that he has been seen in the right, true, light, he sorta became arrogant after hearing his cheers?
And like I feel bad using that quality against someone but it affected his behaviour. I can't remember Ryan or Hardeep ever clashing but a day or two after he heard the chants he certainly got more vocal with Hardeep, trying to take the moral high ground with him and kicking off because he made a comment about Sally's bunions. And if that wasn't enough it's the fact that he started kicking off with Hardeep with how Hardeep has a problem with racism like. If Ryan felt uncomfortable about the discussion that's fine and he could've walked off (also I'm sure Ryan kicked off with Hardeep when Hardeep didn't like him speaking over him and said he could've just left when Ryan did. the exact same thing when Hardeep and Jermaine spoke BUT I'm not 100% confident so I won't use this against him) but for him to get mad like "he has SUCH an issue with racism!!" is a bit
like I have no doubt that Ryan's a good-hearted man but him vs Hardeep just sorta felt... unnecessary at times? Like Hardeep CERTAINLY could've approached situations a lot better but I think he handled himself relatively well against Ryan
So yeah tl;dr Ryan seems nice and got along with everyone but his arrogance greatly affected my perception of him since we saw him sorta change and be a bit more cocky with hardeep. that, paired with the fact I can't think of anything he did that entertained me, just makes his victory a tad bitter
