That is incredibly satisfying to see. On the other hand, the final tribal council is guaranteed to be an AIDS bath of epic proportions.
IMO Jamal at the very least was incredibly eloquent at describing his perspective in those scenarios. It didn't seem condescending or like he was trying to cancel anybody. I agree that the All-womens tribal thing was ridiculous considering Jamal was actually right.
As far as it being satisfyint watching them go..... dunno how. Like we saw Dan multiple times be ridiculed, talked to directly and saw him actually grope people. Not exactly satsisfying watching the woman who put her game at risk in episode 1 and directly told him to stop touching her then he didn't and was brought to tears about it get booted over a guy who cannot keep his hands to hisself.
You are right that it's a reflection of our society and it's not a kind one. The women evaluated the discomfort they felt and weighed it against there scenario and the game and decided to target other people, you can see analogies for it in real life. The fact that Lauren and others felt bad for Dan and didn't want to boot him for that reason is also really sad.
People can complain about the woke status quo but IMO for all of the ridiculousness of some of the extreme sjw stuff people calling out that and getting their pants in a twist over it is a tad ridiculous when the President is literally Donald Trump who is incredibly racist.
This season is depressing honestly and the whole metoo episode was fascinating in how you can see people like Dan get away with much worse behaviour because people are afraid of the consequences of speaking up and also perversely feel more bad for the accused even when they're guilty.
