On the other hand, I sadly don't think this is part of your shtick so: the "joke" doesn't exactly land when you're compare two HGs who really don't have much in common other than being black girls. If we need any reminding, this is literally a page from the Aaryn Gries Textbook of Racism. And if that's too much of a harsh buzzword for you then at least call a spade a spade and admit there's some clear unconscious bias since this is not the first time HGs have speculated upon Kemi being the Angry Black Woman behind closed doors.
I have no idea what shtick you’re on about? It’s just a baseless comparison race doesn’t matter. He was just comparing two different personality traits he was not similar they were similar?

Bayleigh was the biggest screamer / most aggressive arguer of last season (or tied with rockstar, but that still only leaves 2 houseguests to pick from last years houseguests).

He was literally just making a joke saying imagine this quiet person is actually like this loud/vocal person screaming at the Tv. No race was involved whatsoever.

Had Bayleigh been like Kaycee/Haleigh and not really got involved in arguments I would see your point
