In all honestly, in either real life or in the BB house, I would find it more morally reprehensible to be manipulated by others than for someone to destroy something that is so easily replaced.
Fair enough.

I personally would not like anyone destroying any of my stuff just to stay in a game, that to me shows that Thomas will be desperate enough to do almost anything to stay in the house.

Don't get me wrong I appreciate that he is competitive, but there should be limits imo.

I don’t perceive Thomas in the same way, as I really don’t think he was doing any real harm - he was just playing a game. To me he seems like a nice guy.

I would agree with you if someone destroyed something expensive or irreplaceable, but to me this didn’t feel such a big deal or so negative.

Life and people’s behaviour are all a matter of perception, though - we are all different because we we will have encountered different people and had different experiences, so therefore we won’t agree with everyone about everything. That’s okay, however, as it is what makes discussions interesting.

Tbh I can understand your POV, and Thomas isn't my worst in there anyway, I just personally didn't like his behaviour in that particular moment.

And I 100% agree with you that the more interesting discussions are normally when we all bring different perspectives to the table.

I can understand your POV too, and different perspectives give us the opportunity to reconsider and our own perceptions. It’s how we learn and grow in our thinking.

Exactly.

It's why I don't like cancel culture so much, because it can bar these kinds of discussions that we're both having now.

Obviously neither of us I don't believe have said anything extreme in this thread, but cancel culture can be a bitch.
