So let's talk. #SaveSaeran2020 the person should have used hashtags to prevent their content being exposed to people who didn't want to see it or who could be triggered by it. There is no justification for that, and no one is denying that this was a mistake on their part. >

From now on I won't be censoring words because that makes them undetected by twitter's blacklist system so beware. >

Many easily found in a Google search peer reviewed papers discuss about rape/violence fantasies being used as a coping mechanism by abuse victims. So what I suggest is do your own research and check your sources instead of believing anything said on twitter. >

With no knowledge of psychology discussions of "morality" are useless. Abuse aftermath isn't pretty and by singling out abuse victims who don't fit your idea of coping is just wrong. Fantasy is the BEST outlet someone who copes like that can find. This can prevent them from>

Falling into deep depression, or finding other, more toxic ways to cope. Can these fantasies be triggering to others? Absolutely, this is why it's IMPERATIVE to tag your stuff. But policing what fantasies others engage in online is Orwellian. None of you have a right to police>

How others cope. Furthermore everyone can engage in every kind of fantasies. It's important that a distinct line between fantasy and reality exists and there is an understanding that shit that flies in the fantasy world doesn't irl. Nobody is arguing otherwise.

You are completely entitled to your disgust to rape fantasies, in fact, im in the same boat- BUT. Aside from not tagging triggers that person didn't do anything wrong. What she wrote is the equivalent of putting two Barbie dolls in a sexual position. She did not harm anyone>

She didn't touch any person, and she didn't say that raping someone is fun, or should be done, or should be glorified , and extrapolating that from her tweets is completely tone deaf and shows an incredible lack of critical thought.>

I hope you are aware that by putting fantasy on the same level as reality you are blurring the line. That when you call someone with a rape fantasy involving Saeran a rapist you're making it easier for someone's real life abuser to hide amongst these "fantasy rapists".>

I hope you are aware that by doing this, the first reaction people will have when hearing that someone is a pedo or a rapist won't be "they're a pedo or a rapist", but "did they assault real people or did they say they like dark fanfiction?".>

I think your heart is in the right place when you want to protect abuse victims but think critically before acting, and try to see outside the perspective of your own peers. Read what scientists and doctors have to say in regards to that as well in order to make a more informed>

Decision on how to tackle these issues online. These people have dedicated their whole life to studying these things in order to better assist abuse victims. They know better.

Now i want to tackle something that is kind of petty but at the same time really important. People are using #SaveSaeran2020 to "spread awareness" about this person, but if you really cared about this kind of media not being portrayed then you shouldn't "save" a character who>

Is so incredibly abusive in so many ways. Saeran kidnaps the mc, starves her, bites her without her consent, has some pretty rapey bad endings, tries to drug her and manipulate her into joining his evil cult, then switches to his "cutesy" personality that convinces the mc she's>

The only one he loves, that she's the only one that can save him, that he's going to die without her and that he's such a poor distraught and abused kitten who nobody in the whole world loves. He gives her presents and takes her on cute garden dates before switching back to his>

More openly abusive person. He also shoots V out of his own volition, threatens to kill hospital workers and almost strangled his twin brother to death. Before trying to "protect" abuse victims from fan content about him you should "protect" them from him altogether.>

My point is that this whole hashtag is ludicrous at best, and is either pushed by people who are biased about mystic messenger, haven't played it, or just want to police others with no concern for coherence.

I also want to add that another tactic used by saeran is lying. He isn't "unloved". He was the favourite son although that rewarded him with obsessive and abusive behaviour from his mother, he was the apple of his brother's eye, and Rika always repeated how she had "chosen" him>

Because of how promising he was, and he *is* clearly close to her (as close as anyone could be to Rika anyway). In his diaries he also discusses having friends at one point. Saeran is incredibly manipulative. Lol
