No, it's the victim of choosing some pretty shit housemates, regardless of colour. The majority you've listed were booed/evicted for multiple reasons

Does Cougar Jo deserve boos and 'Get Jo out'?

Of course not, but plenty of housemates do not deserve chants (and BB11 was where the pointless chanting for anyone kinda started to show itself more)

I really do think this is all nonsense.

For years we have been told that sexism is afoot because women always leave first. But the majority of voters are female so how can that work???

Many white people have been evicted "unfairly" and if you put them all in a big list like the OP then you could argue it is racism against whites.

Doesn't seem to be anything statistically significant about that.

The vast majority of this country are white and the vast majority of contestants on BB are white.

Some of the most popular contestants haven't been white either. Narinder was very popular. Alison was very popular and has now forged a 13 year TV career out of her time in the house.

In BB5 Victor and Ahmed were hugely popular.

Alison left week 2 over 2 white men?

And Ahmed was truly hated plus Victor got one of the first ever eviction chants

She was the biggest character. They always leave in a vote to evict.

Ahmed wasn't hated. The jungle cats were loved.

Victor would have won the show if it weren't for the unfortunate incident where he called shell a ****.

lol there are people who don't know BBUK is racist? Always has been, always will be if the viewers don't address it. It's not specific to BBUK, it's western culture as a whole that is racist, and that racism permeates everything... especially BBUK.

Why didn't racism permeate the series where a very black, black man won?

You can't cast off everything in the OP and the fact that every girl of colour in the Channel 5 era has been slaughtered in one form or another just because Brian won in 2007, a racial conscience year for the BBUK franchise

yeah the editors/audience didn't have time to hate Brian, they were too busy hating the women of color that year (Charley, Nicky, Shabnam)

"i'm not racist, i have a black friend!"

[Macie Lightfoot]

Having a single black winner doesn't mean that the show isn't predominantly racist lmfao this isn't all or nothing.

Yeah damn those sexist female voters not voting for women.

Female on female sexism does exist, is arguably worse than male on female sexism and is certainly more disheartening.

It's all a product of patriarchy though.

Yes of course it is. All men's fault that women are jealous of prettier slimmer women.

There is no sexism. Women just seem to hate other women who are prettier than them and it is women who largely vote on BB.

Imagine a situation where 3 women are up....the slimmest/prettiest one is usually a goner. Not sexism, just jealousy.
