D’Angelo is someone who I have so much respect for. He gives a fair and balanced take on topics. He addressed Cody Ko in the same way, giving him far more grace than I personally believe he deserves, but also not giving him a way to weasel out of addressing it. He’s been highly critical of Tana in the past, but he was absolutely spot on when he said that the way people are treating her sends a message that only certain people deserve to tell their story and that’s not okay. 💗

Basically the “perfect victim” narrative really. I’m not a fan of Tana either since she has done and said some really egregious things in the past, but I’m willing to put that aside and see that she’s obviously been tryin to tell folks about this for years and yet nobody will listen to her because she’s “unlikable”. It really doesn’t matter how unlikable she is honestly, if the allegations she laid against Cody are true (and it’s looking all the more likely with all the information that D’Angelo brought to light that it is), then he basically committed statutory rape and got away with it, which absolutely should get called out

In my high school classroom debates, people were assigned to the side they had to defend at random. They were about defending *a* position, not specifically the one you liked. iirc there were also student-led ones where you chose a topic you actually liked and someone either volunteered or was randomly assigned to defend against you, which again would not create the othering issue because it's essentially an exercise in eloquent BSing if you don't agree with the assigned position, trying to trip up the other person. In the case of Rep vs Dem whole-class debate they'd split us 50/50, and people would have to work with whatever they were dealt. We got some people complaining they didn't actually agree, but not enough to make anyone feel obligated to declare their true stance.

It was a discussion surrounding all the “norms” that Trump was just ignoring, up to and including the emoluments clause.

Something defenders of people like Cody Ko will always say is "well the age of consent is 16 in (random state/country)" Yet they never acknowledge the fact that the majority of North America and Europe has other sanctions related to consent that are more complex than just a number. The age difference and prior relationship dynamics also play a major role in consent laws. Let's use Canada for example: A lot of people think the age of consent here is sixteen. According to the law however, the *unrestricted age of consent* is actually eighteen here. At 16 years old minors in Canada can give consent so long as their partner isn't in a position of power or authority over them. At ages 14-15 they can consent so long as the age gap does not exceed 4 years, and for children aged 12-13 that gap is reduced to 2 years. Being *almost* old enough to consent doesn't matter. Especially when there's already laws in place with the sole purpose of addressing those "so close it shouldn't even matter" type scenarios that people are trying to paint this out to be.

I find the story about the guy who died at the rally fascinating, because there's such a huge gap between the heinous person his social media profile portrays him as, and the 'heroic firefighter saving his family' that he's being mourned as. That's not to say either of these are wrong, or cancel each other out, but it stands-out to me as an example of how people can feel like the internet is the right place for them to let-out the horrible person they keep locked-up inside, instead of ever reflecting on what drives that part of themselves. It's hardly surprising he died at a Trump rally, in the end.

Practically my entire childhood I was told that I was mature for my age, whilst also being the victim of harsh bullying. Once I become the age where I was romantically interested in others, I was also outcast. But adults around me always said that the boys my age just didn't "appreciate" me yet. And told me that older men would. It's weird to think about that now but as a kid it didn't seem strange. However this normalization as well as seeing young teens date older men in media made me feel like this was acceptable. I was 15/16/17 dating men in their twenties to fourties at the time. I felt special and wanted. I thought it was okay because my countries allows you to legally date anyone once you turn 16. There is a lot as an adult I have to work through, Alot of self blame. One of the things I wish I noticed earlier however was the secrecy of it all. If dating a 30 year old was totally fine at 16 then WHY were they always so adamant that I keep it a secret? It was completely legal so their were no repercussions there. But if it was completely fine to date them (like they repeatedly told me) then they wouldn't have had me lie to all their friends and say that I'm older than I was.

I'm sorry you had to go through that. My partner also was groomed by older men from 12-16 and it only ended when she started to date me and I found out she was talking to those guys online.

It’s terrifying to be this close as neighbours and watch what feels like a country dividing. More and more in politics it feels like both the people and the politicians forget their roles in society. Government and politicians are meant to serve the people of the country, instead in America they are treated as weird celebrities or gods for some Trump fans.

like the one comment you read said, too many people want to brush off the Cody Ko situation because "its Tana" but i cannot emphasize enough how heavily this plays into the "perfect victim" narrative. Even if Tana consented- thats what age of consent laws are for. she legally COULD NOT give consent to a man 8 years her senior. What Cody Ko allegedly did is illegal. she was a child, and Cody allegedly knew that, *thanked* someone for letting him know, *SLEPT WITH HER ANYWAYS* , and then tried to guilt Tana by texting her saying his wedding was coming up, etc., As a current 25 year old myself its absolutely inexcusable and unfathomable to me. And Cody censoring comment on his channels and letting everyone comment hate on his wife Kelsey's channel is an extra level of icky. edit: i didnt say this originally because its pure speculation but in Tana's statements it felt there was an implication that this wasnt a one time thing. at one point she said she was "17,18" when they hooked up. i feel this means they hooked up for a few months from the time she was 17 until sometime after she turned 18 because otherwise she's very consistent that they hooked up when she was 17, plus then doing collabs means they were hanging out more than just the time Gabby Hannah saw them at a party

This guy was one of the groomsmen at Cody’s wedding. The guys involved in the assault shared the video with friends, so it’s likely Cody has seen it. And if not, he definitely knows it happened

The Cody ko situation shows how biased people can be to victims of sex/abuse crimes when the accused are well liked by the community. I work with victims of abuse related crimes for work and work closely with neighborhood victim advocacies, and we have sadly become accustomed to hearing that they don't want to come forward to friends/family or law enforcement because the person who abuses them is beloved by the community. If Cody Ko was someone else, the internet would hopefully not be so divided. This situation is so important to acknowledge and look at; not only for Tana's sake, but for other victims whose abuser has sway over a wider range of people (whether it's strangers on the internet or with community/family members). A common reason why some serial abusers get away with things for so long often includes having a good respected outward image.

I'm a progressive, and Demolition Ranch is DEFINITELY not a political channel in any practical way. I think I've heard them mention the second amendment less than a handful of times across years of content as a firearm/explosives channel; in fact, I can only remember one, but want to be safe.

Cody following through with hooking up with Tana after finding out she was underage is so vile. He literally would have had to pause and decide that sleeping with her was worth more than her well-being or the consequences.. and at 25...

Being a woman is weird because in the moment a 25 year old guy wanting you at 17 makes you feel like the chosen one. Mature beyond your years. Then, 10 years pass and you realize you were taken advantage of. This all being in the public zeitgeist for people to comment on sounds like a nightmare.

I also find it interesting how people were so openly against James Charles for texting minors and I think he was like 21 (not that that’s okay) but then Cody Ko actually sleeps with a minor and the outrage is nothing alike. Like I’ve seen some people getting mad at Cody Ko but not nearly as much as I saw with James Charles.
@indigocrayon520Ай бұрын
I think it's because Cody and his team have been censoring while James Charles went viral asap. Now that the popular channels are bringing up Cody Ko there will be more outrage..... and the victim in the Cody Ko situation is STONGLY disliked, that's also a factor in this situation. Hard to have sympathy for someone you hate.

Re Cody Co/Tana: I live in a country where the age of consent is 16, you can get married at 16 (without parental approval), you can own a house at 16, you can vote in local and national elections at 16. With the exception of buying alcohol and serving on a jury (both 18), you are legally considered an adult at 16 in almost every way. I get that this is not the case in the US, but it just seems so strange to me. In my country, a 25 year old sleeping with a 17 year old would be a non-issue. I'm not saying one way is better than the other, just that it's interesting how in certain places where something is illegal and deeply frowned upon is seen as whatever in another place. Humans are fascinating, man.

“Never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence”. Commentary KZbinrs just don’t always get every thing as it drops, and as moist critical said in his video, he’s not friends with Cody, and even if he is he wouldn’t defend him like that, just that when nobody talks about it with a platform, it’s harder for people like him to talk about the allegations, because commentary KZbinrs like him aren’t really a journalist who’s going to dig up year old videos like that. All this to say, I think how people actually respond to the allegations are more telling than them just having not known about it.

Hey phil, just to give some context for the classroom thing, it's a common classroom icebreaker for heavier topics because what it does is forces people to acknowledge that big labels aren't perfect. How it generally goes is you ask the class to split into how they'd identify, right left, repub demo, whatever. Then, you start asking specifically policy questions, and have people move to the different sides depending on the things they agree or disagree with. The point is to see that people pretty much always have SOMETHING that they switch sides on, and it's suppose to prove that we're more complex people. Someone being completely 100% on one side all the time is pretty rare cause the project is pretty much designed to try and make people bounce back and forth to get them to think about others in a more complex way and encourage their thinking concerning the topics.
