While I don't find the mindset of the Cookout to be racist, I will admit that they're starting to fall victim to the same unlikability trap as these other dominant alliances which is having this "how dare you" attitude towards anyone outside of their alliance having the nerve to actually try and play the fucking game (this attitude was particularly grating with Level 6 and the Committee). As human beings we naturally gravitate towards people that are like us, where that's for similar personalities, interests, culture, life experiences, etc. In the case of the Cookout, their bond has always been based not on them being black, but certain cultural similarities and life experiences that they have all shared because they are black. And they have vocalized that explicitly from the start. Plus 22 seasons of white dominance in casting, which leads to white dominance in game success. BB22 was the first time in almost 10 years where a black player made single-digit placements (as a result of four black players being cast). A group of people realizing "hey, we've gotten screwed over as a race for two decades, and this is the first time we can come together and really work to correct that" is not racist to me. --- Touch fuzzy.
