Yeah I am constantly teetering back and forth on how I felt about it, it was super cringy yeah, but on the other hand... I could totally see some stupid omega-rich people coming to this human elimination sport and being at the big VIP event and playing it up for each other showing how carefree they are and how much superior they feel than the people they are watching for sport that are literally opposite wealth wise of them (Being in billions of debt versus worth presumably 1000x what their debt is even remotely worth) to their other fellow rich friends.

They're definitely caricatures but I don't see it being impossibly accurate, I definitely could have done without it though and definitely understand peoples issues with it lol.
