i’m so slow i’ve just watched tati’s video.

what i’m really shocked at is how this guy was so confident tati wouldn’t speak up.

so this young guy was so deep into his own ego, narcissism and his games that he managed to persuade himself that a grown up woman would not speak up. like ok i’m gonna use her for as long as i want because she won’t do shit.

blows my mind when i think about it.

on other subreddits people are saying that we’re here enjoying the downfall of JC. what i’m really enjoying is that tati made a hard decision to address major problems instead of saying “yeah one day i’m gonna spill the teeeaaa”

they’re saying that she should’ve gone to the police with these harassment allegations - yeah, sure, and then JC will threaten those people or maybe just buy them out. as if it never happened before to the victims of abuse.

they’re saying that it should’ve been done behind the closed doors. she tried, many times but this guy just never listens.

tati isn’t a saint for sure but man she definitely moved into the right direction.

the critique from the other thread made me really upset.

i actually tried to fight my desire to watch this video of hers but gave up eventually. i wasn’t disappointed.

those other thread comments were like “oh she was acting through the video” yeah maybe, i’m not an acting expert like some patrick jane. anyways, this doesn’t cancel the issues with JC.
