BB was originally designed as a social experiment.
There is an irony in that when considering the comments on here about tonights show.
People are excusing, interpreting, justifying and doing back flips because they can't bring themselves to admit the basic truth - Siavash and Freddie were outed as liars.
It is straight forward and even a primary school kid could spot it.
However, the ego of fm's who have identified their support for Siavash/Freddie will not permit them to accept the obvious fact that they both lied.
So ego becomes more important than recognising when people are lying because fans don't want to lose face.
As I said BB was initially a social experiment.
It provides interesting and potentially dangerous indicators on how we see and don't want to see what's right in front of us.
But isnt that what you're doing? You don't KNOW the truth because we havent been shown it yet you're accusing both Siavash and Freddie of lies and therefore BB has manipulated you into thinking you know the "basic truth"
Conversely others might want to ignore the obvious because it is unsettling to know that the hm who they have taken as a favourite is being exposed as a liar.
Siavash, Freddie and Marcus wanted Noirin to pitch camp in their Team. She made it clear that she wanted non-alignment. Siavash tempts here with the inducement that she is safer with them because the others are calling her a rabbit and names Kris and Karly as having told him.
Noirin confronts the others without divulging the source. Eventually Siavish lies and is followed by Freddie lying.
That is clearly what we all saw on tonights show. However, because people have identified with Siavash and/or Freddie it is troubling to admit that they lied.
Therefore the fans of Siavash/Freddie have difficulty in accepting that their 'hero' is a liar.
Consequently their ego obstructs them accepting that Siavash/Freddie lied.
