Women who pull the "Atrioc would lose his job if he was caught watching deepfake porn of his coworkers" argument and believe there's no path to redemption are so removed from reality. I've had coworkers who committed manslaughter, did 5+ years, and reintegrated into society.
@beericua I agree. Her and any woman can forever be uncomfy about the guy or not want to be alone with him, and that's super valid. But I would also get fired if I went "HEY MY COWORKER HERE? HE KILLED A GUY! PUT SOMEONE ON A T-SHIRT! HE DIDN'T MEAN TO DO IT! BUT WHO CARES? KILLED HIM!"😭
But in what world is a guy who literally killed someone and snuffed out another life seen as more redeemable than a guy who got caught looking at AI deepfake porn of other online personalities? Is every woman he gooned to equal to a rape charge? Where's the line? It's retarded.
A perfect example is an older gay gentleman I used to work with in my early 20s. He was a fry cook before prison, and he was a fry cook after prison. Still had plenty of friends and family who loved him. I think the internet just makes it more difficult due to it being "forever."
victims can be wrong, over-demanding, and sometimes outright abusive in the way they treat the person who wronged them. Atrioc has been the near-perfect archetype people should be following as a culprit. those who apologize and try to make amends deserve to re-enter normalcy in time. it's not up to the victim to decide the appropriate punishment, victims can and often are the worst judge of this
drawing the line of when a victim becomes the abuser is difficult, but you should be introspecting HARD if you look at Atrioc and don't see someone worthy of being allowed to move on after years. Pokimane has no right to pressure and ostracize him with this forever, frankly she should apologize to him for not handling this maturely
This was definitely a weird bicurious awakening for me as a teenager 'cause I was like "Dude he is so fucking cool and dripped out with Way to the Dawn.. am I a big gay?" Live and learn, but if a girl/tomboy ever does a Riku cosplay I would fold like fucking laundry bro. 😭 PEAK
