Yeah, well it wouldn't have done anything for me and quite frankly it disgusts me that people are falling all over this guy's dick to forgive him. He's only apologizing because he's been thoroughly outed. His word means jack fucking shit and I hope you choke on your condescension.

FUCKING THIS. He was happy to pretend it never happened and paint it as something else for the longest fucking time. The only reason he's sorry is because he's sorry he got found out.

former t9 mod here, i know he used the 'anniversary of serious rl stuff' crap as a way to garner sympathy from his co-mods in the past. he also got pissy with his ex's friends for holding grudges against him and complained about them on plurk a lot.

he's mad he got caught out and i'm sickened to think i ever trusted the guy.

did he apologize to the girl before this? because, let's be real, he doesn't owe any of us jack shit as far as apologies go. he owes her more apologies than he can give and i would hope he would have done that long before this

i think he's offered "apologies" to her, emphasis on the quotes. i've seen him get pissed off on plurk about apologizing and having people still hate him/not forgive him. of course, at the time i had no idea what he was "apologizing" for. who knew, right...

I have no idea and that's for her to say, if she cares to. But in addition and at the absolute least he did owe his friends list an apology for that "anniversary" bullshit.

As someone who was never directly involved but kind of knew about it, yes. I don't know if they were apologies with excuses or what, but as far as i'm aware he did.

or maybe he did apologize four years ago when it happened? is he supposed to say sorry every day and every time he adds new people go 'hi i raped a girl four years ago'

that would be helpful to have because, surprise, people do not like playing with rapists!

Re: ayrt

(Anonymous) 2013-04-14 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
surprise. you've probably interacted with rapists in your daily life who've done this and not even realized it's considered rape to even apologize and tell you they did it in the first place.

like that makes what he did better? idrgaf about the daily scope of things. but, if i can prevent myself from roleplaying or associating with a known rapist, i would really like that. it's why sex offenders alert themselves to their presence when they move into your neighbourhood.

i'm so happy he had the decency to recognize he was a rapist after he raped someone all by himself! you know what would be better? not fucking raping someone you crusty build up of smegma.

you need to chill. if you're so triggered by this you clearly need to get away from this whole thread. you know who he is now. now you don't ever have to associate with him again or look at any of it. no one here is saying that it's okay that he raped someone. not a single god damn person.

Yeah I really don't care and it ain't my business. I'm just not about to fall on the cock because of a plurk that's 50% excuses and blame-shifting.

he could start by not making plurks about this secret incident and making himself sound like a martyr that needed condolences and sympathy for it when it turned out it was fucking rape??

i mean really if you know you did something horrible, be it rape or something else entirely, you don't talk about it as much as he did in the way that he did

But don't you see, anon? He's so brave for overcoming it! It's really wonderful to see a man work so hard to get past the trauma of committing rape. He's an inspiration to us all for stoically moving forward, despite the scars he bears for violating someone who trusted him in one of the worst possible ways.

But anon, maybe it was his way of coming to terms with the tragedy!

I'm just putting that out there before one of his shining whiteknights does it for him.

he's supposed to have not fucking raped her in the first place.

once you've gone and committed the rape, there isn't any "right" way to handle it afterwards. there is no correct way to deal with the fact that you've fucking raped a person. no matter what you do, it's going to be shitty and people are going to hate you for it, because you did a shitty hateful thing and you are a shitty hateful person. no amount of ~soul searching~ and ~inner growth~ will remove those consequences.

if you murder someone and get sentenced to life in prison, they don't let you out of jail after ten years because you've ~become a better man~

in a perfect world funk would be in prison right now. he isn't, and he's not going to be, because the world sucks. but that doesn't mean that he gets out of punishment. his punishment, rather than living in a cell, is having us all hate his piece of shit rapist guts no matter what he does. he can't escape us hating his shitty rapist guts by saying he's very sorry any more than a murderer can escape jail by saying he's very sorry

if this sounds unfair, there is an easy way to avoid it

don't fucking rape people

As someone who actually works within the confines of our fucked-up criminal justice system, there's actually far less of an emphasis placed on being sorry, repentance and rehabilitation than there NEEDS to be. Frankly, if we could have a lot more psychs to help inmates work through their issues--and believe me, guilt causes a lot of fucking issues--it'd be infinitely better.

You're not wrong. He should never have done it and the consequence is knowing that people will hate him on top of whatever guilt and shame he feels. But I'm sorry, from my place in the system, repentance and rehabilitation is way undervalued.

(Also, it's called parole.)

"He's only apologizing because he's been thoroughly outed."

As someone who knew well beforehand, this is false. Don't let me get in the way of your self-righteousness, though. I'm sure you love speaking for all survivors.
