Unnecessarily long explanation on why I really like Shelda actually
HEAR ME OUT!! Feel free to disagree, but I really like Shelda, and I would like to lay out why i disagree when people often gloss over the finer details of her character due to dismissing her because of how she spoke and such. This is just a big list of apologetics because I see people talking about her with such disdain and I want to point some stuff out.
She's undeniably a fraud, but I think what's most important are her motivations, she says explicitly herself that she speaks as she does and preaches as much as she does to try 'inspire' the others, even if this is kind of silly she's trying to help, she fully believes that the bugsnax are harmful and dangerous and she thinks that presenting herself the way she does is the best way to help the others - ultimately she wants to save them.
And it's not entirely false? Whilst everybody else seems irritated by it Chandlo sees her as a source of wisdom and inspiration, even if her ultimate message about bugsnax doesn't actually work with him.
And then the other aspect of her character - not just is she a fraud, but she's a huge hypocrite. But hear me out again. I don't think you can blame her for eating bugsnax, at all. She survives off sauce (like both the journalist and Gramble as revealed by Eggabell in her second interview) and whilst this is possible it's stated to be bad for their health, Gramble manages this but noteably! Shelda is in her sixties and is implied to have several physical health problems, which the others are not and do not.
I think ANYBODY in this state of health would succumb a bit eventually, and from there I don't think you can blame her at all, as it's established that bugsnax alter the way you think, they make you crave them, they're incredibly addicting, that's the point. One very old woman succumbing against her morals ONCE is to be expected and there was no way for her to know how horribly addicting bugsnax are - none of them knew and they don't know until Liz tells the journalist.
I’ve seen bugsnax big enough to eclipse the moon...
