Dawn could've won survivor if she didnt cry every single second and owned up to her game and be a strong woman. Her game on paper is respectable and she could've argued she was the best player of the season. Her downfall was when she was crying and being paranoid that much to the point it was emotionally too much for other players. Brenda was there for her both game and emotional standpoint when everyone was like ew dawn is crying again. After she showed that care for her Dawn didnt even hesitate a second voting Brenda out and when she said she was hurt Dawn... SMILED at her face.
Brenda is not in her family, Dawn owes her nothing or to any of the players game wise. But after using people for emotional support if you dont show same respect.. then you have a ****ty social game.
Dawn HUGGED Eddie and said i am gonna miss you when they barely had any relationship and she laughed when she brutally backstabbed someone had been there for her.
For me thats why Dawn was as bad as a social player Russell was. They would've been both deserving winners if a) Russell respected people and actually got to know them as people b) Dawn was not a mess

Oh don't get me wrong, in no way am I trying to say that Dawn was robbed. One of my friends summed it up perfectly a while ago in saying that Dawn played a great game
for someone else, but she's way too nurturing and driven by her emotions and personal trauma to play a cutthroat game like she did. It's understandable why she went down this route if you look at her gameplan as a response to how she played in South Pacific and what her downfall was, but Dawn certainly doesn't have the ability to compartmentalize needed in playing a ruthless game like she did.
That being said, Brenda hounding Dawn into taking out her teeth and being completely aware of how difficult that would be for her is kind of gross and really lays to rest the idea of Brenda being the season's sweetheart. I just find Brenda to be up her own ass and holier than thou despite doing nothing to really deserve such a sense of moral superiority. Like, didn't Brenda move herself and Jeff Probst to tears about what a great, humble person she is without a hint of irony??? It's like sure, you may be great and humble and altruistic, but then as soon as your humility is tested you become spiteful as **** and want to humiliate someone in a public forum... that's not really a good look in my eyes! Especially when it amounts to "take out your teeth RIGHT NOW, even though there's no chance in hell you're going to get my vote, just because I want to see you suffer and humiliate yourself."
