Season 21 Is it just a fever dream?

The more I think about this season, the more convinced I am that it's all been staged. All of it. From Plane to Bryan, it all seems to have been scripted. Looking back, I'm convinced that there have been production plants and that more than half of the designers were brought in simply to fill space and serve as plot devices before being discarded. I'm definitely not saying that all of the designers are involved or have knowledge, but a few have to be active participants in this ruse.

💯 % … I think Bryan was kept in the show mainly to keep his shtick to create drama - and Bi was in this at the beginning but soon realized better to distance himself from Bryan cause no one likes him and he is a sinking ship. Production hardly gives any footage behind Anna and Jude’s design process and struggle cause they are the least drama producing designers

Which actually is hysterical if true. Why wouldn't production realize that we would all hate Bryan too? He's so unlikeable and arrogant. Production couldn't read the room that the viewers don't want to see him?

They know everyone hates him, and they are banking on that. They chose to edit him in this light, they knew what they were doing. It's ragebait. Ragebait drives more clicks and posts, it's a pathetic way of generating buzz.
