And if there was ever an original all white alliance that was formed with the stated sole purpose of making sure that they were able to vote out only POCs so that only white folks made it to final 6, and called the plan the "Master Plan", all hell would break loose on and off the air.

I haven’t watched BB since maybe season 3 but I have always been a big fan of Survivor. All the talk of the segregationists on BB got me thinking of how Survivor has had “all women” alliances a few times but they’ve only worked once or twice. I think the producers changed the types of contestants and some gameplay elements to stop it. The women are less eye candy and more likely to want to be seen as equals to the men. The producers also introduced more ways for contestants to get immunity so alliances have to turn on each other if their target has a secret immunity.

If the ratings were down because of the segregation, the producers will make changes. If ratings weren’t down, expect more of the same although it’s really hard to pull off an alliance that sticks together.
