Gonna get a lot of shit but the voice acting community letting any allegations or call out abt vas having like sexually harassing/coercing/assault allegations from ppl die down for the sake of their work a little too quick to feel any sort of comfort Being near it
And then you all quite love to pride yourselves on being loving emphatic people who would never let that happen to anyone because itâs such a strong community
And then when they donât show any sign of being better but bc certain people will be working with them and no one wants to start shit itâs okay to keep turning a blind eye
If you let it simply be okay to put a bypass on how an abuser shouldnât be allowed to continue getting ahead inconsequentially because youâre going to work with them Iâm sorry but karma will take you down and Iâm not sorry for it
You hurt people with pasts that may be similar to what that abuser did even if anyone knows about the persons past. You remove any trust and reliability they had in you because you support a horrible abuser
You are too comfortable with creeps being allowed to run the industry just to keep it running instead of demanding change and intolerance of their actions
You let abusers live a little too comfortably in their skin
You put people on pedestals and get blinded by the idea of being on a pedestal too so you donât care who may be affected by the people you support
You really let people who loved and cared about you down by looking past the pain that person caused them just for your career
Your career can only come to a karmically innoprotune end because of a decision you made by supporting a predatorial abuser and be aware that justice will come when it wants to
But if itâs addressed one will simply say itâs for work while saying âI love you dudeâ to that abuser on a social media platform
It makes me horrified that Iâm an adult and this happened to me, imagine teenagers in the online voice acting community blind to groomers and you all are so wrapped up in work you let it slide and traumatize a teenager
If the victim who happens to be your friend confronts you about being friends with their abuser and you lie straight to their face you are enabling an abuser and you donât like to hear it but youâre evil for letting abusers rise up
Iâm so tired of waking up and crying because I can still remember his face and I am haunted if what he did to me and I know he will thrive and rise up and people who claim to be my friend support him
Yes Iâm talking about fucking Jordan motherfucking Bonn but I could be talking about so many people in the community you just let get away with hurting people
I am still hurting practically a year after what he did and seeing his career still move on while I canât sometimes get up from bed because I will never be the same because of him
Why the fuck are you all so falsely positive all the time, pushing down any hope to have any people trust you once they find out who you really are because itâs all an act to further careers
Youâre scared to address specific people on your platforms to get rid of abusers in fear of ruining your career because you wonât tolerate fucking predators
Some of these get extremely close and specific and I hope you are reading this and feeling horrible about it
Donât come to me asking me whatâs wrong like you donât know or werenât aware or that youâre always there for me. Donât even try it. I will never forget about the time he hurt me so bad I was afraid of what I would see in the mirror because I was disgusted with my body.
The community letting these people maintaing a career and ignoring their true colors just for their voice is exactly whatâs wrong with how industry is and why it wonât stay if it tried to have zero tolerance for professional sexual assault in the workplace
Itâs getting harder to even type for this thread because the tears are coming down so hard. I literally couldnât talk to anyone for so long after he did that to me and you act like itâs okay to ignore stuff like that.
You didnât call me a liar when it happened but you going and being buddy buddy with him makes you just as bad as the people who did and I hope that eats you alive if youâre someone like that
To the people who never went behind me. Who helped me love again and love myself again and remind me of how trust and love and kindness can make life worthwhile thank you thank you so much. You are a reason I am alive to this day.
If you were there and supported me during after Jordan hurt me, but you still support him now and make excuses for him just so you can keep your career, you do not get to say you are one of those people who cared about me. To me you are throwing me in the trash.
Because supporting a victim is no longer a need to show your precious peers that you have good morals you can throw me in a trashbasket so I can watch you use my abuser as a way to get clout
Do not act like my friend and tell me youâre sorry I have to do through this to me on a public platform for performance art, call out the people who let abuse slide and do something about it. Your sorries wonât fix how broken I felt.
I donât even know if this will reach anyone, I wonder how silent the big names can keep me because of my small following.
Allegations wonât ruin a man, but the way random people and community members react to the allegations will ruin a victim and a survivor.
Donât ask me if Iâm okay. Donât say sorry to me. Call out the people so I donât have to so I know people care about addressing abuse and abuse enablers. So itâs not just the victims fight.
I am losing sleep and crying just so I can type this while he gets to sleep easy knowing his career will still pick up. You who let him are awful.
You know who you are. I see it more than you think. And the way you lied to me hurt me more than you think. I am finally loving again and you almost halted that. THAT is that you did to me and you should feel horrible.
I am loving again and trusting and you played no part in that. You continue to expose red flags about your fake positivity and one day I wonât have to be the one to say your name because someone else will so I no longer have to be alone in this fight.
And I swear to god if you come to me privately with an apology I donât want it. Call out the man you supported instead of continuing to enable him dammit.
I hope he sees this I do. I hope he knows he is an evil human being and I am still fucked up how he falsely lets people know heâs changed. I hope you read this and know exactly who you are and that people are going to slowly realize youâre who Iâm talking about.
I seldom genuinely hate anyone but because you supported this man who hurt me so much and know my pain as you were the second person I ever told. I genuinely hate you.
You present as such a positive face in the community. You set up meetups at conventions and you welcoming this abuser into your circle increases the chance of me seeing him be applauded in person when I simply want to see my friend. But he wonât be a villain.
You will praise him as one of your friends, infront of me, infront of your whole community, showing how fake you can really be.
I finally can be open about this without waking up crying because of a nightmare and think maybe I deserved what he did to me. I can finally tell the person Iâm involved with my pain and them tell me that I am undeserving of this pain.
Iâve had so much turmoil because of him but you ignore that and let him be your friend. How fucking could you do that to me? Do you know how much caring about him makes me hurt? I trusted you I fucking cared about you so fucking much.
I loved you like family, you were there for me during so much and now I canât even look at your name and I think about how much I miss you even with all of the faults I understood about you.
I told you that you were one of my closest friends and that doesnât mean anything to you? I was vulnerable to you and that meant NOTHING?
Youâre so influential in the community but you are such a fucking prick, you think you get to pretend to love your community when you donât care if victims are hurt by your support for a known predator
Whatâs funny is how I probably will still get people calling me a liar and you will do nothing and that in itself will mean youâre denouncing me to your community and the sheep that they are will follow in support and leave me to be unheard yet again.
Did openly defending me on your platform not get you enough followers? Not get enough good people points for you? Apparently not if you can literally support a horrible person like him.
Have fun with your little success. I hope it was worth hurting the people who loved you. Iâll never waste my time on someone like you again. Your true colors are ugly.
Stop getting all up in arms about ppl accusing the va community of being fake. You know damn well itâs shit and broken and toxic.

Everything you do whether or not it is genuine anymore feels like an act because of how much of a fucking joke you have shown me and other people to be and just know I am not the only one who feels this way.
If supporting my abuser was as bad, my abusers little advocates literally dehumanized me, called me a woman when you know my identity, tried to shut me up and he did nothing to stop them from hurting me and ridiculing me
You enabled Jordan Bonn an abuser Jacob. You did that. I didnât fucking stutter. What do you have to say for yourself.
