5 years is not enough of a punishment.

I saw this tweet (translating this article) earlier tonight and remain at a total loss for words:

Expulsion is a joke in Korea. If the parents have any form of affluence and money, they can bribe another school to take in their bad seed child.

100%. My friend taught at a private school. One of her student was like a grandson of samsung. He never showed up to class. She gave him a C because he did turn in something. They called her into the principal office and told her to change the grade to an A. She didn't and they did it for her. It was wild. Lol

Sorry, but we have to start [REDACTED] these men. Like, yes, rebuild societies from the ground up to socialize boys into being good people, but in the interim...

Honestly? Yes. Other animal species reject and ostracize dangerous members from their communities, no? I hate that we can’t do that. Anyone who commits sex crimes against other human beings should not be welcome in our societies at all, like go live in the wilderness and don’t use anything other human beings have built. You’re out.

OP, thank you so much for making this post.

Some info about the Twitter hashtag campaign scheduled for Saturday, September 1:

On September 1, South Korean women will launch a hashtag campaign asking the South Korean government to expel the perpetrator from school and reveal his identity (video is evidence

220k members is abhorrent. i'm so disgusted

[doverz]

Cat is doing the Lord’s work. And, of course, men and boys feel threatened by her so they’re making deepfakes of her.

Omni on YouTube just talked about this. Mentioned that some were family members sharing their relatives to participate. Ugh.

[iznanassi]

the majority actually, was guys abusing their sisters/moms/female relatives

[veracity]

Which is so infuriating. Because WTF. And we know there's no protection for women there if the population is expected to half by 2100.

[afeelingunacted]

I remember reading once that there is a huge epidemic of men sexually harassing their mother-in-laws.

Anyway men are disgusting.

between this and Indian men looking up videos of a gang rape of a female dr we just need to cancel men all over the world

There was also the Rice University student who was just murdered by a man she was dating. A few months ago, the local news in my community reported a grown man was breaking into buildings and exposing himself to women. I am sick and tired of this shit.

[spurtle]

My uni had what seemed like weekly e-mails in the fall about a man that was entering women's washrooms/showers and taking videos of women, he did it multiple times over three months and some of the victims were underage and I know every woman that lived in a dorm would have been terrified like how can you focus on anything when you aren't safe in your new home but you are always expected to just cope.

[kjesta]

and yet people are constantly raising the boogieman of trans women being men in dresses to gain access to women's spaces. it's so ridiculous, bc it is patently obvious men have never needed those kinds of shenanigans to invade our spaces and abuse us, since society barely gives a slap on the wrist if they do it.

i feel so fucking hopeless sometimes. we shouldn't have to live under this crushing burden.
