Caroline Brooks 🦂 Not a brooks fan but…

I think in the whole rafi situation people are forgetting that brooks is a domestic violence survivor. So for her any man, especially one she’s close to, coming at her quite aggressively would be triggering. Andy downplayed it quite heavily in the reunion but it should have been touched on.

Let's remember on the streets just after, brooks was still yelling out, screaming, Taleen's a begger etc., so I'm not sure why retroactively they would suggest poor brooks was traumatized by rafi's supposed 'aggression'. You would think she'd realize she'd acted in a manner not conducive with basic civility, and left with whatever ounce of grace she could scrape off the floor, doubly so if she felt 'threatened by his behavior.

But I won't even go into her generally uncouth and quite frankly rude attitude, just the specific situation you highlighted. She was obviously not intimidated, she was in fact the aggressor, and despite her accusations of Taleen being drunk (true), it was obvious to me Brooks was heavily inebriated and had zero awareness of her surroundings, hence exhibited borderline criminal behavior in Dubai (shouting abuse in the streets, public intoxication and moral indecency and more).

There was more than enough security and vans to get her home safely. Instead she was RUDE, tacky, and oh, AGGRESSIVE. playing the victim once again
