I Think The Reason Why We Like Eddie So Much, Why His Death Affected Us So Much, Even Though It Was Rather

i think the reason why we like eddie so much, why his death affected us so much, even though it was rather predictable with such shity writers, is because a lot of us see us in him. this dorky, nerdy, affectionate goofball that can`t seem to be still for a minute, who looks  for some people quite intimidating, but actually he is a big softy, who adopts people under hiw wing so they won`t feel excluded. he is misunderstood by many. he spends his days either perfecting the route for the game or learning new tunes - what a menace to society! well, and selling some stuff between all it...  he is the character with whom you sympathise, whom you want to succeed in the end. he is just so warm and familiar that such way of dealing with his character is such a slap in our faces.   eddie, my love, you will always be famous

I can`t fucking believe that vol 2 was written so fucking poorly and talentless.  like wtf was this??? this was the thing that we`ve all waited so impatiently for a month?? that`s some sick and stupid joke. st s4 vol 1 was actually pretty good AND THEN WE GOT THIS BULLSHIT AND DON`T GET ME STARTED ON MY BOY EDDIE. WE REALLY GOT ANOTHER FUCKING PRECIOUS QUEERCODED EDDIE IN 80TH WHO FUCKING DIED IN SOME INTERDIMENSIONAL SHITHOLE)))) WHO COULD`VE BEEN SAVED)) ONCE! AGAIN! THEY COULD HAVE PULLED HIM OUT this boy deserved so much more  also downgrading steve to being nancy simp))) shut the fuck up. get fucked. eat dirt, duffers 

i just think that it`s neat how the 2nd showed up to izuku during this time, when he looks really similar to katsuki not to be dramatic, poetic or some shit but it`s like some sort of comfort and reassuarance 

you know what tremendously and utterly disturbs me in tsh fandom as a part of society? the fact the there`s practically nothing to find, no content with henry\francis, when these two are just perfect together they`re like this disgustingly exquisite and uptight old married couple and have such a fun and interesting chemistry that i was just so thrilled to read the scenes with them what the fuck, guys?? step up your game and open your eyes on this masterpiece of a power duo

you know, i  would be fine if Eddie didn't show up in season 5. BUT only if he could finally finish school in season 4, his name is cleared and he left Hawkins with his boyfriend  to become a cool musician. and then their 6 little nuggets would come to visit them. 

Percy

I want to address the allegations and scandal that has engulfed Percy Hynes White. As a survivor of SA, I take all allegations seriously and give all accusers the benefit of the doubt. When I was first made aware of these allegations my heart dropped into my stomach, and I felt the first stirrings of panic rise. My own experiences make me specially sensitive when these things occur. You could say I’m triggered. I logged off for my own mental and emotionally well being. Once I calmed down, I logged back on and went to read the allegations. I didn’t want to believe that Percy was capable of such a thing, but as someone who believes victims first, I was open to the possibility that this kid I thought was charming, funny and sweet was an illusion and the reality was that a monster lurked beneath the surface. However, as I began to read through the tweets and “evidence” against this man, something didn’t add up.

That’s when the anger kicked in. Do you know how insulting it is, as a survivor of rape, when girls make false allegations? Do you know the damage that it does to legitimate victims? The likely hood that they will receive justice falls even lower than it already was. It is a further violation committed against us. And there is no justification.

So over the last few days we have learned that Percy himself committed no crimes - he did not SA anyone. We’ve learned that at worst, while a teen, he was cavalier with a girl’s feelings. Not kind, but if we are to believe this is true, he also apologised when older and wiser. We have learned that when he learnt that a friend of his was capable of such horror, he ended the friendship and he was kind and compassionate to the victim.

When all that came to light, his accusers tried another avenue to smear him - they called him a racist. Their evidence? A video of a very young Percy quoting a tv show. The line happened to contain a slur. Stupid, but I think forgivable considering his age at the time. But that’s not all, according to the girls, they also offered instagram likes as proof. Problem is, the post they referenced, was not what they claimed. And don’t even get me started on his supposed twitter likes. He doesn’t even have a twitter account.

Then they tried another route - kink shaming. Again, they posted unverifiable “proof” that he liked some kinky stuff. Ok, that’s not a crime first of all. And second, fantasies and exploration of your sexuality is normal. There is nothing wrong with that except the fact that these girls violated Percy’s privacy by telling everyone.

Were they done? No. Not even. They released naked and risqué pictures of Percy that they claim he sent to them as proof of bad acts. We have a few problems with that. 1) they offer no proof that he sent them to them, just the pictures themselves, which begs the question “how did they really get them?”. 2) revenge porn is a crime, but sending the pics to them in and of itself is not. Especially if they had a sexual relationship with him at the time. 3) this is the really disgusting part. Percy appears to have been 13 years old when some of those pictures were taken. That classifies as child p*rnography and most certainly is a crime. A vile, horrific crime.

Throughout all of this, all anyone has proven is that one girl was possibly assaulted by someone that Percy knew. He reacted with shock but kindness when he found out. As to be expected. But most of all, we learned that Percy is the victim here. And we learned that there are many among us that are more vile than I ever feared.

He’s a victim of vindictive little girls who held on to images they never should have had to justify false allegations in an attempt to ruin his life because he didn’t reciprocate their affections.

This is fucking sick. It makes me sick, it pisses me off and makes my heart break for every true victim of SA, for Percy, and for his real friends and loved ones.

I hope that the people responsible face the consequences of their actions. And I finish with one final point. There is no justification in this world for spreading child p*rnography. None. There is no justification for falsely accusing an innocent person of vile crimes. None. Those involved should be ashamed of themselves.

I hope and pray that Percy is being taken care of, that he’s ok and that he is able to return to some semblance of normalcy when it all dies down and the air clears. The reality is he’ll be irrevocably changed by this. I just hope it doesn’t change him too much. I hope he emerges from this still kind, goofy and adorably weird. Take care, Percy and know that we are on your side.
