Controversial opinion: I don’t really count Cleo’s win as a full win, LIKE LISTEN I REALLY WANTED HER TO WIN, but Real Life is like a half win or something.
People always act like this opinion is an attack on Cleo and all that but like, you’re saying Real Life counts as a regular win like any other? So, if next season Cleo makes it really far, she should give up so someone new can get a win? You think she should say “I already won a season someone else deserves this more”? Like idk, to me counting Real Life as a full win feels like saying you don’t believe Cleo could get a win in a legit season so you want to count this one. And I don’t think that’s fair. Cleo doesn’t place very high on average but anyone can win. I think her winning Real Life is proof that she’s getting closer to a real win, like how Jimmy dying near the middle is proof that he could fully break the curse. I don’t count either of those as fully winning/breaking the curse but I see it as like. Half points. But apparently this opinion makes me a Cleo hater who doesn’t want to see her succeed. Idk it just feels like secretly thinking she isn’t capable of a real win, of course I don’t assume the worst of people like that, but like, that’s why I can’t subscribe to the opinion that RL was a win like all the others. I would’ve said it wasn’t a real win no matter WHO won, changing my mind just because it’s a woman feels like backwards feminism to me lmao.
I mean I’m going to assume that most people who say this aren’t doing that and would’ve said that it counts as a Real Win no matter who won? But if not then plz think about that lol. But like. No seriously if someone who always wins like idk Scott had won would y’all be saying “wow… Scott won yet another full season for realsies…” I’m assuming the best of you all and assuming that for some reason y’all hopped into Real Life thinking “can’t wait to see who our OFFICIAL sixth winner is”
