adulthood is just an endless stream of phone calls you don’t want to make but have to

THINGS I LIKE

• when people use my name in conversation
• when people say “this reminded me of you!”
• when people remember little things i say/do
• when people genuinely thank me for things i’ve done for them
• when i think of the same thing at the same time as someone else and you give each other the look

I was in an abusive relationship. Whenever my ex-girlfriend and I got into an argument, which was often, it eventually led to me being slapped or punched. The physical damage was nothing compared to the emotional toll, but not one time did I ever strike back because that’s not the kind of person I wanted to be. I don’t want anyone, regardless of gender, to have to go through that.

A lot of people are making a great many assumptions without proper context but all of that aside I’m more disheartened that people would actually believe that I would perpetuate violence against women. Violence is a problem. Jack and I were not making some grand sweeping statement about feminism or trying to say that it’s okay to hit women. We were shooting the breeze talking about some crazy videos we saw on YouTube. The main point that some people missed out on is that it’s not okay to hit ANYONE. 

Equality is an ideal. But ideals taken in the literal sense don’t fit the world as it exists today. An eye-for-an-eye is literal equality. Men and women being able to hit one-another is literal equality. There is a SERIOUS imbalance to that particular equation that needs to be solved but as a whole it’s still not the kind of equality I fight for. I fight for a world that eventually forgets what violence is. I would gladly lay down my life to change the world today so that when I’m long gone and forgotten someday there will be a generation that only remembers humanity’s violence and greed in history books and children’s tales.

My videos are only intended to make people smile and I’m sincerely sorry that this one in particular failed to do that. I’ll always hold myself to a higher standard and I hope that you all will too. And remember to keep smiling! 😀

moonguardian-guardianofthemoon:

He BASICALLY starts the argument that “if you want feminism/equality men should be allowed to hit women” and then starts talking about all these times women have attacked people and it’s SO FUCKING DISGUSTING

Not to mention The Forest is disgustingly colonialist and racist to begin with.

Please signal boost this and message markiplier and tell him this sort of behavior is unacceptable. Or at the very least don’t watch that video.

Here’s an actual quote from that video: “It’s not because I think women should be hit, I don’t think anybody should be hit.”
