Summarizing the state of affairs from their perspective, @ZoharaZoabi offered a recap for his or her followers.
“#KKKyle wants to form a ‘silent majority’ of white players bc he wrongly assumes the [People of Color] are working together. He’s called them loud bullies, and felt “jumped” talking to them.”
She added: “He also said Turner in a bucket hat looks like a Filipino rice farmer.”
Viewers have had their suspicions about Kyle for the reason that begin of this month. On August 5, @Seethingfrfr shared a video clip from the present of “KKKyle” explaining his plan, which the Twitter consumer mentioned was proof he wished to “target all of the racial/ethnic minorities in the house.”
Wow!!! KKKyle now explicitly saying that he desires to focus on all the racial/ethnic minorities in the home and his largest worry is them uniting towards him. Wants to align with Michael, Brittany, Alyssa and himself.

Many viewers claimed the creators of the present should be hiding Kyle’s “micro aggressions” whereas broadcasting clips of different housemates wrongdoings.
“CBS was quick to show Taylor [Hale] saying over and over she won’t put up a black woman which caused the casuals to call her racist,” @TheCapital_V wrote. “But they refuse to show the actual racist Kyle and what he has been saying for weeks.”
CBS was fast to indicate Taylor saying time and again she will not put up a black girl which triggered the casuals to name her racist however they refuse to indicate the precise racist Kyle and what he has been saying for weeks. #BB24

Adding to that, @yummy_leftovers mentioned: “Not surprised @CBSBigBrother is hiding Kyle and the silent majority’s micro aggressions against the POC. Nobody cares about the POC experience because we are seen [as] less than.”
“Kyle seriously said that the white people in the Leftover are the ‘silent majority,’ while the black and brown folks are ‘loud.'” @leebee4life wrote, referring to a bunch that has shaped in the home. They added, “And Michael [Bruner] and Brittany [Hoopes] just nodded. That is vile.”
It wasn’t simply followers of the present who have been calling out Kyle’s conduct. Former Big Brother star, turned “Queen of Real Estate” Janelle Pierzina did not cover her feelings when it got here to the controversial housemate.
In a since deleted tweet, Pierzina wrote: “He only lasts 10 seconds, [โฆ], I’ve seen proof of his racism and is 29 and still lives with his parents. Cancel this guy already.”
Pierzina mentioned she had to return and delete the tweet because it contained an incorrect accusation that he had beforehand used “the N word.” After admitting her mistake, she mentioned she was “still over Kyle.”
Newsweek has reached out to CBS for touch upon claims that the Big Brother producers are “protecting” Kyle Capener.
