Hes A Piece Of Shit - Tumblr Posts
(tw: nsfw, non- consensual) Seungri is guilty of viewing a noncon video in a group chat + not reporting it to help the victim. Fans tried to show his innocence with this image/transl but incriminated him by showing he viewed the video yet did nothing to help the victim.
I’ve seen some support for Seungri lately based off a thread going around claiming he is innocent. That very thread implicates him in the chat where the non-consensual video was shared (meaning the victim didn’t know they were being filmed; hence the name Molka Scandal).
The source is by a VIP and a translation from KBS News who uncovered it - showing that Seungri (and everyone in that chat) received a non-consensual video and didn’t report it. It was only later that reporters and the court made it known to the public. I’m making this post to address some excuses I’ve heard from fans who continue their support despite Seungri (and everyone in that chat) being complicit.
Excuse #1: “He cannot control what others do.” - No, but he can control what HE does & he didn’t report this to the police. The video was filmed without that person’s consent. Don’t excuse it. Being a fan should have its limits. He made himself an accomplice by not attempting to help the victim or verifying if it was consensual, didn’t so much as even question it. Seungri freely ingested the material that was against that person’s consent.
Excuse #2: How would he know it’s not consensual? - How do you imagine the reporters/police/court realized it was non-consensual? In much the same way Seungri could have but didn’t say anything. The court obtained access to the chat history, the same chat history Seungri had (considering he was in that chat). So the reality is that he either knew and didn’t say anything or willingly accepted pornographic videos without knowing whether or not the person gave their consent (which they didn’t). He could have also asked or made a statement to only have consensual videos shared since this JJY person was a serial offender. But he didn’t. He did absolutely nothing in favor of any of these victims. He willfully consumed it without asking any questions knowing full well how spy cams are a huge problem in South Korea. Why do you think so many men partake? Because they can and because there are hardly any consequences.
Excuse #3: He didn’t know. Only the court found out! - Seungri had the very same evidence because he was part of the chat where this non-consensual video was shared. He had everything the court later obtained yet he stayed silent. Hence, he either knew and did nothing or accepted the video into the chat without so much as even asking if it was consensual, if they were of age, etc - meaning he was complicit.
Excuse #4: He didn’t know it wasn’t consensual!!! - And that’s why he should have asked. It’s a sex video or image or audio. Or is accepting this type of material okay as long as he made no actions to so much as even check? It’s the reality of what happened and his actions, or lack thereof. He could have asked in the chat if it was consensual or even said “Let’s make sure everything is consensual and everyone is an adult”. But he did absolutely nothing. NOTHING.
Excuse #5: The sex was consensual. The filming was not. - Meaning he still knowingly viewed illegal, non-consensual content without reporting it. He willingly viewed a video that showed a person in a compromised sexual scenario who NEVER consented. And did not report it. That doesn’t make it okay. That makes him an accessory.
Excuse #6: GDragon/Jiyong still supports him and that’s all I need! - You have a lot of faith in someone you don’t know and have never met.
Excuse #7: You’re defaming him because he’s famous! You’re an anti! - The only part being famous plays a role in any of this is allowing someone to get off for less when it should be more. It’s not defaming. It literally came from one of the big VIP accounts who are his fans who translated it from KBS News.
Excuse #8: He wasn’t charged for this specifically. He’s innocent! - Regardless of whether or not he was charged for it, the fact remains. The chat history is enough proof and it was encrypted so it wasn’t tampered with, meaning he was there and saw the video. Also, the US president wasn’t charged for all the proof we have on him. That doesn’t mean he’s innocent. Excuse #9: It was 3rd party reporting so it’s fake news. - 3rd party reporting… You mean the encrypted chat messaging that outed him for being in that chat? Or maybe you mean the court documents that have all the names of the participants and the audio+images+video shared among them?
Excuse #10: You wouldn’t have questioned or reported it either! Hypocrite! - One of the reasons I’m quite adamant about this is because I’m actually a victim of something like this so yes I would report it as anyone should. Or AT LEAST try and make sure it’s consensual and legal especially given the egregious numbers of 몰카 molka in South Korea.
Last thing I’d like to say for all fans who support this man and any of the others who were present in these chats:
It’s a truly sad and deplorable situation because you know if you looked at this logically - and not based on random twitter threads (but the actual evidence collected via the encrypted chats and all court documents), that you’d have to admit the truth. Seungri is guilty of doing absolutely nothing to help the victim(s). Everyone in the chat(s) are guilty.
You think the entirety of the chat has been released? You think someone who is a serial sex offender wouldn’t make r*pe jokes or speak of his conquests the way he so freely did in various other gcs? You think that didn’t happen both inside and out of the gcs, at clubs, in passing, etc? If you think Seungri didn’t repeatedly excuse that behavior, both inside and outside of the chat, then there’s no hope for you to ever logically consider this. And that’s a shame because there is a victim here and it’s not Seungri.
I am *tired* of dealing with those who excuse sex crimes and the participants.
I am tired of apologists of sex crimes and those who perpetuate them.
As a small aside, some of my tweets were reported because these stans felt it was necessary (none were removed). But they didn’t feel it was necessary for Seungri to report a non-consensual video??
The only innocent one here is the victim - the one who was filmed against her will -who was shared for all who watched but none who questioned. (please share)
