Right. All of those things are the actions of contestants in a figurative "cutthroat" competition. Especially when motivated by the sums of money dangled in front of them as prizes.

IMO I think a lot of the additions here, on top of the "slackened quality control" phase WV has gone through and "antagonists=villains" confusion, is users' personal dislike of characters and focusing on, and elevating, their negative moments.
