The best course of action for dealing with children in fandom spaces is to ignore them. They’re not gonna listen to you when you tell them they shouldn’t be engaging in adult content, we’ve been there, you’re not their parent. If you see someone being weird to them of course say something but otherwise just avoid engaging.

ok whatever ignore this and check this out:

apology post

im sorry for the ruckus

maybe I'm the friend thats too woke but i dont think we should be making fun of bob's death, yall....

sure, he had some extremely bad qualities about him, but he was still a person? I'm not saying this to defend his negative actions; it is literally common sense to respect people who have died

as much as i might not like bob, his addition to mcr with his talents were unreal. he was a great drummer.

i absolutely do NOT agree with his political views, however. his opinions are simply shitty and idiotic. crazy to me how a grown man could support someone like trump.

im sorry but if youre 'celebrating' or 'laughing' at his death I'm just gonna assume youre a mentally undeveloped immature kid.

im sure that he was struggling mentally, and the pressure from mcr fans on twitter probably made it worse.

im all in for "hahaha funny joke!! look bob, GAY PEOPLE!!" but ive literally seen people telling him to khs.

not cool guys

sometimes i forget how immature and petty the mcr fandom can be.

and once again im not trying to defend bob's actions, im just saying that we should be respectful.

that's what it is

rest in peace bob

he literally said the cops should shoot every single person in a blm protest. Like I’m not going to celebrate or joke about his death because this is not how I roll, but I don’t judge people relieved to see a violent racist go and I think we should not police minorities tones when they speak about people who hurt them. It is unfortunate but respect is earned, I don’t believe dying in a horrible manner absolves anyone from their wrongdoings especially when they never apologized and were tweeting hateful stuff against minorities just before dying. Is not immature to not gaf about someone who wants you dead.

Victims of racism are the only ones expected to give grace to those who victimize them, if he had assaulted someone no one would be here telling people to be respectful.

Random thought but if Camilla had darker hair I kinda see her in Clara Bow ???? These photos specifically, they just speak Camilla Macaulay to me

Listen, although I understand how the circumstances around Bob’s death can be extremely triggering to those struggling with mental health, I think saying he didn’t deserve to be alone after the awful things he said and did kinda puts blame on the people in his life for refusing to be around a violent bigot. Because that’s what he was and this is not even debatable he made sure to tell us every chance he got. He was constantly wishing death upon people, black people, fucking cyclists for god’s sake. I will not let nostalgia make me put my morals aside.

Unless you’ve been around a really hateful person you just don’t know how draining it is, it’s like walking on eggshells 24/7 hoping they won’t start a rant about how minorities should get killed or something. My point is, most times these people are given multiple chances to get better and be in their friends and loved ones lives and they choose not to.

Sure check on your loved ones, but also, you don’t have to be around to see hateful people ruining their lives and taking you with them, you’re not a bad person for not sticking around.

That being said my deepest condolences to those who loved him, it’s not your fault.

crazy how donna tartt (author of the secret history) and bret easton ellis (author of american psycho) went to the same college (bennington) AND were good friends and then went on to write two of the most misinterpreted satire novels by the media

When you really think about it Bunny Corcoran is the best representation of old money there is. Not a dime in his pocket, couldn’t read, bigoted, forcing his friends to fund his lifestyle. He would love Anna Delvey.

One thing i can yap and yap on about for ages is the fact that the greek class cant for the life of them grasp the fact that bunny is upset by the murder of the farmer

When henry is telling the story of the bacchanal to richard, he says bunny couldnt understand how serious the situation was because he was freaking out which is funny, because he was the only one who understood

Henry also said that bunny wasnt upset about the murder but rather about the fact that theyd gone without him, and that he couldn't possibly care that theyd killed a man because he wasnt "exactly the most moral man" as if u needed to be fucking gandhi to realize that killing someone is wrong

When bunny started acting out they were all convinced he was doing it out of spite or to get under their skin, completely ignoring the signs that showed he was having a complete nervous breakdown and was slowly losing his mind because of what they had done

This is because they themselves did not see the act as something that was morally wrong, but rather an inconvenience for them. Like francis said, it wasnt voltaire they killed. They were so out of touch with reality that they lived not in this world but in one where morality doesnt exist, one they are the center of where the gods personally descend to be by their side. They lived in their ancient tales and greek poems. Bunny was the only one who was grounded and they cant understand that. It doesnt even begin to cross their minds. And its the same with bunnys death, they dont care about the morality of it because in their mind they are closer to gods than to humans and gods do whatever they please. They can kill a farmer and who cares? Its not like he was voltaire. They can kill their friend and who cares? Heroes kill and heroes die all the time.

this distance between them and the real world is the most important part of their characters because it explains everything else, from the incest to henrys suicide. Bunny was the only one who was rooted to reality which is what always set him apart from the rest and most importantly why things started to spiral out of control as soon as they killed him. He was their anchor to the real world and to sanity.

THIS!!! Bunny is their link to humanity, and I mean humanity in every aspect, even the ugly ones.

His bigotry only becomes a topic when it could make them feel justified in their actions, otherwise it is just too mundane of a concept for them to care about.

It’s so funny when people be posting “modern!bunny would be a trump supporter and his friends would kill him for it😻😻✌️✌️” like the others even gave a fuck about any of bunny’s racism 😭 be so fucking real right now those white kids obsessed with Ancient Greece would NOT give a fuck just like they didn’t give a fuck in canon setting.

like my boy Henry didn’t know about the moon landing people genuinely think he would gaf about the election
