She is genuinely a good person and she exudes positive energy. She is naturally a happy, optimistic, nice person, and if her energy bothers you, it’s because you’re either evil or a miserable person. I wish I could be like her but I know I never will be.
Go away OP. We aren’t living in an effing bubble. I’m not evil nor a miserable person. Just self aware and a mature adult who sees BS!
Triggered much 🤣 Stay blessed 🙏🏾😭
By ignorance? Damn sure!
Okay. Toodles
It's got nothing to do with being miserable or evil. She is literally brainwashed, that's what that level of religious furvor is.
I wonder if a lot of it has to do with the perceived inauthenticity of it all? I wouldn’t really know how to act on a Netflix reality show either for fear of judgment. She did rub me the wrong way, but not enough to think too much about it after the fact — she’s also very young!
She was one of the most talented dancers this season and she seems like a sweet person. I found her annoying at first but she kind of won me over.
agreed. I love watching her dance. She truly is a beautiful dancer.
If thinking that she is really playing it up for the camera's is being evil and miserable than so be it lol
I just saw on TT someone made a video saying that she is in the Pentecostal cult and went to a Bible college. Nah. She’s a southern pageant girl who loves Jesus like many do here. That’s alone explains why Reece is the way she is. I guess because I am from the Deep South, Reece being so polarizing is blowing me away. She’s like so many girls I went to school with. All that to say that Reece doesn’t bother me. She seemed talented and nice. My only problem is I wish the doc hadn’t focused so much on religion. That aspect of the doc didn’t add much honestly to me.
what’s crazy is she went to the University of Alabama which is not at all a “bible college” while it is in the south, and has some religious undertones, it’s definitely a party school as well. like tuscaloosa is not a place a pentecostal cult girl would go too lol
People don't like her because it's an overarching negative response to rising Christian nationalism.
In the same way Christians "don't want their noses rubbed in LGBTQ+", many of us don't want our noses rubbed in Christianity. I said what I said.
No pun intended but preachhhhh
I think as a person she’s lovely, but just cause we point out some of her faults, that means we’re evil?
Dickriding never works out on this sub so spare your breath 🤣
Pointing out faults is a verrrrrrrrrrrry kind way of putting it. She’s been crucified, mocked, and picked apart on here. I’d say all of that stems from a place of evil, yeah. Certainly doesn’t come from a place with a good heart that’s for sure!
She’s been crucified, mocked, and picked apart on here.
Me when I am overdramatic
It’s not that deep
Yeah? Why don’t you ask Reece if she thinks it’s not that deep.
The parasocial relationship you have here reeks through the screen.
I for one, am just alright with Reece but tbh putting yourself out there in the public eye opens you up to public scrutiny whether you like it or not. Sure, some criticisms may be more baseless and cruel than others but you made an active decision to put yourself out there. People are entitled to their opinions about someone and having such a negative opinion doesn't automatically make someone 'evil' or 'miserable'.
Parasocial relationship? I would go hard for anyone receiving this treatment because I just buried my sister less than a month ago who committed suicide due to bullying. I was the one who found her. Some of the comments and mocking I’ve seen are deeply damaging. I’m just trying to bring awareness and prevent that from happening to anyone else. The lack of empathy is the only thing reeking here.
This forum is very hard on everyone. If you have an unpopular opinion, there are some here who will try to eat you alive. I don't pay attention to it anymore, but I can see how it gets to some. I am deeply sorry for your loss. I have a son who was bullied for years. By the grace of God, he had someone who stood by him at pivotal parts of his life. We still watch carefully. If you are deeply troubled by negativity here, get off this site. It will cause needless pain! You certainly don't need that right now!
Oh my goodness, I am so so very sorry for your loss. I logged onto Reddit because, like you, I’ve been very worried about Reece since I watched the show and knew she'd be annihilated here on Reddit. I’m going to be praying for Reece, but I think I might be reading this now because I'm supposed to be praying for you and your sister. I know how your sister felt because I’ve felt that myself. And I know how you feel because I’ve been there with my son. I didn’t sleep most of his Junior year of HS because I was afraid if I did I’d wake up and he’d have chosen your sister’s path.
I’m very sorry for your loss. I was not condoning bullying, merely the ability and right to voice one’s opinion on a public figure.
I am so very sorry for your loss
If it doesn’t apply, let it fly cuteness ✨
While I personally don’t find Reece to be my cup, I think she is a spectacular dancer. I think she might possibly be one of the strongest dancers on that team. Every routine my eyes always go straight to her, she stands out in the best possible way.
✨ THIS ✨
It’s really easy to be happy and optimistic all the time when you’ve been privileged and sheltered your whole life. If Reece experienced anything like what Madeline is going through I wonder if her cheery outlook would be the same.
I’m just baffled by her honestly because emotions are what make us human. Even in Christianity and the Bible there are people who doubted, had fear, were scared, and got angry. It’s strange to see someone happy 24/7 and makes me think something is wrong with them or it’s a persona.
You don’t think it is possible that she didn’t feel comfortable showing more vulnerable or “negative” emotions on a filmed program which can be streamed from around the world? She grew up in a world where reality tv and social media was well established and has no doubt seen plenty of people regret their words and actions after being too open in a public forum. I wouldn’t want to risk ruining my public persona so early in life. I don’t know why people expect “real” in media anymore.
Except she has ruined her persona by what she said on reality tv. The opinions here are mostly negative.
You make a very valid point, thank you
It’s not her energy that bothers people but her religion and how she approaches it. It’s just not my cup of tea either although she seems like a perfectly sweet girl.
How does she approach it? She was in a confessional and those questions and conversations are being led by production and they have the final say at the end of the day of what gets aired. She probably talked about so many other things that didn’t make the cut.
I've seen a couple of posts saying how they feel Reece is fake. That's what prompted my post.
That's all? Girls are getting called fake all the time, it ain't that deep
Ok? I still said what I said? 🙂
Fair enough. Sometimes when someone is super sweet other people just can’t believe it’s not just an act. Especially when it is not the norm where they are. But I agree with you she seems genuine.
Ohhh okay, understood
Definitely evil here. Satan and I are on a first name basis.
Hail satan! 😭🤣🤘🏻😝
And I'm miserable lmao. I had to ask myself why she bothered me at first. Its not her, its me 🙃🤣

Then blame production—not her. They guide the conversations in the confessionals. She probably talked about so many other things but the producers knew the Jesus stuff would get a strong reaction and clearly they were right.
No-one is blaming anyone. You’re taking it way too seriously. We are discussing our opinions on what we saw.
I think if others expressing their religion during the show is broadcasted and emphasized- example someone muslim- and it being equally received by non-Christians then people could be called hypocrites and miserable etc. However in todays climate where there is so much suppression of peoples beliefs like trans, etc. I think people feel peeved that some people have freedom of speech to be themselves with their entire set of beliefs and others do not. I read on another post Anisa (think that is her name) who converted from Bhudism to being Catholic being put down for it.
I think people should live, and let live; but when majority of the stuff presented is filtered theres more to the cynicism that people have. And OP, you can be whatever and whoever you want to be at anytime- if she serves as a role model for qualities that you wish to have (which all seem positive) find ways to adapt your perspective to match them, in your own unique way- "because no one is you and that is your superpower"
