An Honest Discussion About Sexual Assault

It's been in our world since really the beginning of time. And it isn't funny. It isn't cool. I'm talking about any form of sexual assault. Whether that's grabbing someone's ass without permission or a full on rape, that doesn't matter to me. It all violates people. It all makes people depressed and suicidal. It makes people blame themselves like its their fault. I've had friends that are victims. That hurts me man. Seeing #metoo posted constantly by friends last month just broke my heart every time. And now the past week, 3 members of bands that I very much look up to and listen to have been accused of either sexual assault or texting a minor about sex. It's so disgusting. They are famous and have thousands of fangirls. They'll invite them backstage only to be betrayed by a member of their favorite band. But they don't tell them to stop. And don't you freaking dare tell me "they easily could have told them to stop." Bullshit. If you've ever met your favorite band or a musician that you love, speaking is really hard to do. The people you look up to are talking to you. You don't want it to top. Although I have never texted with a band member, I have talked to them. It's exactly how I described it above. Now if that person or persons are texting you every day, you're constantly happy. You probably don't care that they are sending you nudes or asking you to have sex with them. You're just happy that you're texting them. It disgusts me. These people have control over the victims and they have so much power and they know that most people, especially minors do not know how to reply. If you struggle with depression or anxiety, like me, even a moment of happiness is addicting. When you're talking to your favorite band, you're obviously going to be nonstop happy. Now listen. Everyone. Yes. E V E R Y O N E struggles with lust and sexual thoughts. We are human. You can't stop it. Buuuuut what you can do is control it. Not act on those feelings. It really isn't hard. I've done it.

If you do act on it, let me speak to you. You're a pig. A monster. I don't want you to die but I want you to suffer. You're not cool. You're not funny. And you're ruining your life. And if you already have, I hope your life is ruined. I hope you just rot in jail with those other jackasses. I hope you never find a job. I hope your family disowns you. I hope you never find friends. I hope you never get married. I hope you're isolated to an island and never get to talk to another human being ever again. Don't die. Don't kill yourself. But your life is over. Not in the sense of death. But you're in for a world of hurt.

Jesse Lacey, Luke Rockets, Rob Damiani, Havey Weinstein, Dr. Luke, George Takei, Louis CK, Kevin Spacey, and anyone else who will be accused because there will be more: You all suck and are a disgusting excuse for human beings.

Until Next Time,
