Brad Pitt and Leonardo di Caprio had several underage girlfriends when adult. So they get excused? not canceled?…
a LOT of us are here because we ditched H-wood due to sliminess. While Brad and Leo "got a pass" as did Kevin FUCKING Spacey, Jared Leto, James Gunn, Ezra Miller, Rob Schneider ffs....
.....while that is true, H-wood AS A WHOLE has taken a massive hit. So many of us have ditched it altogether for different creative content. And some of us landed in the asian drama world, because it's like ahhh this seems so much more wholesome.
If it isn't then I'm not about to ditch one entertainment industry that's corrupted to it's core, for another one that is equally corrupted. I'll move along to something else, and NONE of them can have my money, my attention or my time. First it's one scandal, then another. And I couldn't give a shit about a DUI or drugs or cheating spouses even. But you f*ck with kids, and I'm done.
Just like people like Leo and Pitt and Spacey ended up dragging the whole industry down with them, KSH is gonna do that to k-dramas.... unless they disavow, and start making real changes.
I'll watch C-dramas, I'll watch Norwegian detective shows, I'll watch those blasted crappy misogynistic Turkish dramas before I watch dramas made by an industry that exploits kids. I haven't seen an American show - except for the movie Goon, which was good - in YEARS. I give them no money, I give them no clicks, I buy no movie tickets. But much like the Titanic sinking, it will take some time for it to be apparent that they're doomed. However, they're just as sick, just as messed up, and just as doomed. I mean Hollywood just partially burned down, and all of America was so conflicted like we don't want innocent death at all, but..... maybe this is the part in the Bible where God gets hella mad and rains fire, and youre like "Let's gooooo!" Just the biggest pot of mixed feels over it.
I mean, Leo and Brad, no they didn't get cancelled.... and that's why H-wood is getting cancelled as we speak.
Only that heb3philia is a form of ped0ism. I only say that from the standpoint of raising my own children. I see a distinction. I do understand that heb3philia is *mostly* distinct, as it relates to ped0philia in general. But to me, it's like where do you draw the line? When you raise your own children, there is no line. Theyre ALL children. I think what happens when h3bephilia gets recognized as its OWN thing, is that older children become percieved -within the context of those discussions- as a lesser seriousness or a lesser repulsiveness. And that opens the door to people trying to purposely create a cultural shift, whose goal is to culturally normalize it.
So to me, it's ALL ped0ism. I can't say that my children are any less innocent, and any less open hearted and fragile, when they're 14 as when they're 4. To me, the impulse on the part of the perpetrator is the same. And saying one likes 14 yo's vs 4yo's to me is about as relevant as saying they like redheaded children over blondes. I don't care WHAT age preference you have. They're all kids.
But that's all, and that disagreement is just so minor in context to the fact that we agree that this has to be about the industry, the culture, and the justice system, and not just about KSH.
I will totally admit to having a long-standing irrational gut-instinct red-flag vibe about Park Seo Joon. Willing…
Who else is on your "i just have a gut feeling" radar? If you don't want to be publicly naming people, I'd love a DM, I'm so curious. I think I believe you are scary accurate, and am totally curious now.
I KNEW HE WAS TROUBLE 9 YEARS AGOYesterday I found an old list of Actors&Actresses I dislike, that I made all…
I will totally admit to having a long-standing irrational gut-instinct red-flag vibe about Park Seo Joon. Willing to be dead-ass wrong on that one, but if it turns out he's a creepster, I will be like "I knew it!"
I never expect to actually find rational debate on MDL, but amongst the sea of reactionary comments, I find a few of you. I appreciate different POV's when they are well reasoned and thought out, and take the circumstantial evidence into account, instead of pretending it doesn't exist.
Thank you to the cooler heads in here bringing facts, resources, personal experiences, well-reasoned conjecture and deduction.... and basically creating meaningful discussion and debate. It gives me some faith in this site.
I mean, there is also screeching and irrationality to be sure, but not as much as I expected.
Also, thank you to mods who are allowing a healthy back and forth while removing the obviously deranged accounts.
Yes, that's the clearest you've made yourself so far, and I find that the minor disagreements I have with your statement would just be nitpicking, because on the major points I am in agreement with you on. You rest your case, and I peacefully concede. In the end, we are fighting the same battle, which is advocacy for victims of an *industry* and a failed *justice system*, and not just one victim of one actor.
Then how about a more direct phrasology: As it stands right now, with the collective sum total of what we know so far, not from a legal standpoint but from your own standpoint of common sense, what do you think KSH is guilty of, and what do you think he's not guilty of, just you personally.
The fact is that hebephi1ia is a subcategory of p3dophilia. And hebephiles would like you to think that's not the case, because they feel like they shouldn't be stigmatized to the same extent. But they're wrong on that. Prepubescent girls are still children, and pro-h3bephilic attitudes are morally repulsive to the general civilized population of the world.
So you believe EVERY male is unsafe? That actually ISN'T reasonable. It's hypervigilant, which is fine, that's your prerogative. But it isn't normal or reasonable, that's an attitude you carry from your personal scars. You're skirting the issue that he is of *particularly* untrustable character as is shown by the receipts we have thus far. He is HIGHLY problematic on multiple levels.
It's quite toxic to bury your head in the sand and disengage your common sense just because you think the perpetrator…
I do indeed. And no it was not. Your motivations as to why *you* would think about this case the way you do, is *relevant* to your arguments. It would be an ad hominem if I said "your brain is fried oatmeal therefore you are stupid and wrong." Because that is not relevant, and in no way could be construed as a rational or relevant argument.
It's quite toxic to bury your head in the sand and disengage your common sense just because you think the perpetrator…
We are not a court of law! We are consumers who hold the power of cultural relevance and cashflow. We are the market they are peddling their KSH wares to. We do not have the same criteria and standards as a court of law, and sometimes that's a good thing. OJ was never convicted in a court of law for murdering Nicole Simpson, but we ALL KNOW he did it, and now he's a pariah. Why? Because we didn't have the same threshhold for guilt as a court of law.
And no, this is not just about ped0philia, it's about grooming. You are lumping them together, but the proof of grooming IS there, as he CLEARLY was working on "courting" her, and had mentally sexualized her BEFORE she turned 16. There is also the extortion aspect of this, which also has sufficient receipts at this point, and you discredit that as valid as well. But it is all part of the same picture of what actually happened, and you don't need a court of law to put the pieces together, if you just use your own common sense, which you seem to refuse to accept as a valid method of deducing truth, whereas we do not.
At this point you're just trolling, because everything you've said has been addressed adequately in my other posts, so you are attempting to turn this into a circular conversation, which I'm not gonna do with you. I'm trying to watch The Best Thing, cook dinner, and garden. I'll say what I have to say, argue what needs to be argued, but I'm not gonna repeat myself for the slow people in the back who aren't arguing anything in good faith.
Your posts betray the fact that you have been systematically rejecting each singular piece of evidence as circumstantial. But all that mountain of circumstantial evidence paints a very clear picture which you refuse - or pretend to refuse - to see. Which means you are deliberately NOT exercising your common sense. And that's fine, if you want to be the court of law in your own mind. But that's not a reasonable ask for you to expect other people to reject all this circumstantial evidence that paints a consistent and whole picture of what went on.
I'm sorry to be this way with you, but we are done. Because I honestly no longer believe you ARE arguing in good faith. I don't feel I need to block you, but I'm not engaging with you any longer on this, I feel it's a waste of my finite time on earth.
It's quite toxic to bury your head in the sand and disengage your common sense just because you think the perpetrator…
I'm not one of those people saying shit like "i hope he dies" or "If you support this guy you deserve to be in hell" or whatever. For me, it's never personal, and this should stay within the realm of rational discourse and not devolve. I don't mind disagreements with other people who are at least rational about their POV. But everybody's really upset, and there's not a lot you can do to calm them down right now. It is what it is.
I think this is a natural visceral reaction on an international level, to what is basically Korean hebephilic acceptance culture. It used to be worse, but their collective attitudes are still not up to international levels of decency. That has to change if they want to stay relevant as a cultural mecca for entertainment.
.....while that is true, H-wood AS A WHOLE has taken a massive hit. So many of us have ditched it altogether for different creative content. And some of us landed in the asian drama world, because it's like ahhh this seems so much more wholesome.

No but in all seriousness that shit is usually a larper. I guess we'll find out soon anyways, with how much scrutiny he's getting rn.
Now THAT is an ad hominem.
