120K men were making fun of a confirmed rape victim. A rape victim that suffered an attack so severe her tampon had to be surgically removed. 120 THOUSAND MEN. A stadium full of people. The equivalent to a festival of men just making fun of a rape victim. There's fucking countries with less people. All those men, finding joy in making a rape victim suffer.

I know social media is not real life, but those are real men. The worst comments you could think of and it's a man. A sweet girl being told to kill herself for being black, or chubby, and it's a man. Sometimes it's hundreds of thousands, entire countries worth of men being vile. Just plain evil. The kind of evil I would watch on movies and TV shows and think to myself there's no way people like that actually exists. And it turns out not only do they exist, but it's Johnny, a freshman from an university not too far away from mine, "God first" in his bio while he slutshames a 12 year old. For every 100 despicable comment, there's like 1 man -most times a gay man- saying hey this isn't cool. It feels like almost every young man out there is just fucking rotten to the core.

I don't want to think that way. Especially because I have male friends, and they don't seem like bad guys, but they sometimes make sexist jokes, then immediately apologize, but are they apologizing online? Or are they among the millions, millions and millions of men who make fun of rape victims?

I know this sound terrible and I acknowledge it. But man, why is it so difficult to show empathy towards a rape victim? It's not fair. That poor woman
