Spoilers aside how is she trying to be a villainess? Like how? She's helping people, giving her all, and aware of her own privilege. God, the plot is dumb

No, "pick me's" are a type of "not like other girls" girls, in a way that pick me's operate for male attention. NLOG Girls can operate outside of the male gaze, and it can be inplied in a way thatvmeans they think theqy areq inadequate compared to other girls (like "im nlog, they're cuter"), or better than them.
But she was built to be an nlog? Like, its clear whenever she proclaims she's a villainess, and there isnt anything wrong with it in this instance. She just comes off as a haughty child.
