There's a big difference between bitching about people doing things they are doing and bitching about people because you can't focus on anything but other people's faults.

Booze is the drug of choice, the rest is how most of the Western World let their hair down, the example used was to demonstrate how the 'victims' are so far away from the norm, nothing wrong with that, but what are they doing on the show , they knew what they were letting themselves in for.
Focusing on people's faults?? What, so when did they become the judge and jury, and you are definitely watching a different show if you think that the cool gang are remotely bothered about the 'victims' then you are sadly out of tune to what is going on in the program. The 'cool gang' exist, they were termed that by the 'Victim', I think it was Chris. A need to label, to understand and then to be able to dissect it, poke it, ridicule it, compartmentalise it, be bigger and better than it, look down on it. That's where it started.
Any counter bitching or 'commenting on faults' was just that, a retaliation,mainly not understanding why they were in there and just didn't want to enjoy themselves. Now, I agree, there are different ways of enjoying yourself but the if the 'victims' as already discussed, were given the ultimate way of letting their hair down they wouldn't know what to do. They are conditioned to sit back and watch, that's where they get their power from, putting other people down and into boxes that way they can make sense of the world around them and survive.
