He continued to pitch an all white alliance multiple times out of nothing but paranoia.

2 times, he did it 2 times.

Why on earth would Kyle trust Michael and Brittany over Monte and Joseph? He did a poor job of explaining himself

You are correct in a sense that he knew they were playing the middle and scheming, but he recognized that Monte and Joseph were the heartbeat of the Leftovers and was trying to recruit allies to go against them. This was when Monte and Joseph were heavily lobbying for Alissa to go home.

If he would've never mentioned it again after the initial speculation none of this would've happened

Calling absolute bullshite on that. Michael and Britney had their nuclear option against him for when they felt their backs against the wall, and they used it. Same as Michael going after Turner with the gay thing when he was on the block.

He was in the pound alliance with them which was loyal to him. It made no sense from a game perspective. We've given Kyle some slack by saying it was "a bad read". That shite was egregious. There is no logical reason for him to do what he did, period. There was only the surface level reason of "oh it happened last season and I see black people here."

They didn't have a nuclear option against him until he pitched an all white alliance

Let's not forget he willingly admitted that his decisions were based on some sort of racial bias. Why would he agree to say that if he didn't mean it? No amount of money would make me say that shite on national TV if it wasn't true. He knew he wasn't winning the game. At that point, he was risking a few thousand dollars at most if he didn't play along and self evicted.

If he comes out of the house and starts saying he was pressured to say this shite, I'd be willing to hear him out. Until he says otherwise, I'll take his word for it.

I also want to make it clear that while I don't think Kyle is innocent, there was no malicious intent and he's just an idiot. Michael on the other hand, weaponized Kyle's ignorance and used it to his advantage. That makes him a piece of shite.

This is the last I'll comment on this because nobody is going to change their position so it's pointless.

Last one. Lol

Taylor voted Jasmine out. She wouldn't nominate her, which I don't agree with that either. How does Taylor's random virtue signaling justify trying to dick over Monte and Joseph?

Here is my 2 cents about the racial biases, not that it really matters. The woke/SJW segment of our society has built up the perception that biases (racial and otherwise) are some great evil that is unconscionable. But in reality, biases of all sorts are more likely an evolutionary trait (for a lack of a better term) that has kept groups of humans safe from being killed, enslaved, and/or wiped out by diseases (see native Americans) throughout the history of humanity. Are racial biases counterproductive to integrating western societies? Sure. But is it some great evil that only white people are capable of like the far left has drilled into the fabric of society, no. Monte even admitted to Kyle that in college he hung around black people because that is what he was comfortable with. And that sentiment plays out across all races, ethnicities, and nationalities all of the time. It's not some construct of the white western patriarchy, but rather an evolutionary response that has played out since the dawn of man.

Is Taylor's refusal to nominate Jasmine (who she new had been trashing her all game), or Monte wanting a final 2 with Ameerah because she was a strong black woman, really any better or worse from a biases standpoint than Kyle being paranoid about the POC gravitating towards one another at some point because he thought and stated that they had "more to play for" than him and Michael did? I personally don't think so.

Now do I think Kyle is an idiot for voicing it out loud for all of twitter, reddit, and the rest of the crazy social media to hear? I definitely do. All Kyle had to pitch was that Monte and Joseph are far closer to Indy, Jasmine & Terrence then Kyle, Michael and Brittany are to those three, and that might be a reason that Joseph and Monte are pushing Alyssa to leave before those others. And that it might be the more strategic move to make sure those others leave before Alyssa, and then they can possibly use Alyssa for the next phase of the game when the LOs go against each other just in case Joseph and Monte decide to do it first. But Kyle didn't, and of course twitter and reddit blew up and bombarded CBS/Paramount with complaints and threats, so production gave Michael and Brittany the heads up that they needed to backtrack from that. But in the end Kyle's actual goal wasn't to necessarily form an all white alliance for the purpose of having an all white alliance. His goal was really to form an alliance that he could pull Alyssa into, and still work with the players he felt he had been working the closest with in Michael, Brittany & Turner. It just so happened that the reason he felt closest to those people was because of his biases, which again most people have to some degree.

So with all that said, I don't personally see Kyle's biases as being any worse (or better) than Monte and Taylor's biases. Kyle just lacked the self-awareness and judgment to realize that what he was suggesting would blowup on social media because the biases of white people are treated very differently on those platforms than the biases of POC.

Bamatab with the logical and common sense approach. Well done good sir!

On a game related note, it looks like Brittany will be voting to evict Taylor (who she has had a final two since like week 3 or 4) just because she got her feelings hurt that Monte, Taylor and Turner have been staying up late bonding while she decided to sleep early all week, and Turner is going to vote to evict Alyssa who told him she'd "take a bullet to the head" for him, while Taylor will cut him if she wins the final 4 veto. Heck, Turner just now reassured Alyssa once again that he'd give her a sympathy vote, but then talking to her as if she is already in jury.

I honestly don't know what either Turner or Brittany are thinking right now.

Please let their be fireworks tonight and not the boring eviction of someone who has zero shot at winning

Like I said, horrible decision by both Turner and Brittany, but more horrible for Turner.

Turner really is a dumbass.
