random question for the thread: is there a reason you guys almost never make fun of erudite for being molested? do you guys not know it happened? is it not as relevant to her since she isn't a very sexual person? do you guys feel extra bad since she was a baby and can't even remember it?
Her and Dylan Burns were honest about what happened to them-- they bravely shared their stories on stream while molestiny nodded along playing his video games
I feel like people with trauma can either take it out on themselves or take it out on the world, Dylan Burns took it out on himself via multiple suicide attempts, and Reckful would be another person who turned his hatred inward (not saying reckful was molested, just traumatic childhood[depression in family, brother killed self] that he could have easily leveraged as an excuse to act like Destiny)
Reckful was trying to create Everland to give other children the childhood he didn't get to have, and share his love for MMO type games with the world.
Erudite's story was also less straightforward, said she had scar tissue inside her and was scared/anxious around men so it was like inductively reasoned to believe she got molested; it doesn't have the same oxymoronic appeal to it that destiny's does, his was "brutal" yet also unimpactful according to him
Erudite also, for better or worse is
trying to turn a negative into a positive... she probably really does want to see this Incel Ranch thing through and Destiny is her patient-zero... unfortunately that manifests in her making infinite excuses for his toxic behavior because she's taken some sort of blood oath to never give up on that manchild & treat him the way she thinks addicts are supposed to be treated, this is also why Hutch is cozying up to Destiny again too i heard.
Molestiny's trauma caused him to only care about himself ("fiercely independent" from parental neglect), create an insanely inflated, narcissistic ego(lashes out at world when it doesn't conform to his idea of the reality he built around himself) and see others as expendable + relationships as transactional (the second he gets attached to anything, Grandma comes to kill the dog)
Destiny has ruined a generation of men, destroyed countless lives interpersonally & professionally, violates consent, terrorizes, threatens, and humiliates people constantly; all while pretending he doesn't.
Everyday we are subjected to his projections, he goes around calling everything unhinged because it's he who unhinged his jaw to prevent himself from having a permanent nerd voice+gay lisp... all we want is this guy to be honest with himself & the world
