what is up everybody this is Chris from
the rewired soul where we talk about the
problem but focus on the solution if
you're new to my channel my channel is
all about mental health and what I do is
I take them for topics going on in the
YouTube community or pop culture try to
see what lessons we can learn from them
so if your end of that makes you
subscribe and ring that notification
bell alright so today we are going to be
talking about the very very important
subject of sexual assault alright this
is a topic that's very close to me
although I've never been assaulted I
have way too many female friends who
have been like over the years it it's
been become so clear to me how big of a
problem this is because I can honestly
say that I know more women who have been
sexually assaulted than women who
haven't all right this is way way way
too common and this video we're gonna be
talking about the conversation around
sexual assault okay but before we get
started I need to make two things very
very clear okay the first one is I
understand that I think it's pronounced
brawadis I'm just gonna call him Brandon
because I guess that's his name brawadis
and faze rug I want to make it clear
that I understand that they are
defending themselves and they're in a
messed up mind state so we're gonna be
talking about some of the language they
use around you know sexual assault and
the victims of it and everything like
that but trust me I do not think they
had any ill intention or anything like
that it might have been ignorant or it
might have just been fueled out of them
trying to defend themselves okay second
thing I need to make very very clear I
have absolutely no opinion on whether
anybody in this situation is telling the
truth or the line okay like if you want
the entire story if you want to debate
around you know who's telling the truth
and who's lying if you want to do that
like do it on another video
if you want the full story by the way go
check out Bo Black's this video you just
dropped like a almost 45 minute video a
lot happened on Twitter and everything
like that because basically paratus or
you know his cousin was accused of
sexual assault by a young woman
keemstar brought her on drama alert -
interviewer okay and not long after that
cube started to lead to the video so
like I said go check out Bo glasses
video he has all the details on that
okay anyways yesterday when I was seeing
this pop off on Twitter I was like I had
no idea like who's this you know Brandon
guy you know what why can't delete this
video so I started doing some research
and I came across the video that's over
on Brandon's channel that he did with
faze rug okay and again before I show
you some of these clips let me make it
very clear once again I have no opinion
on who is telling the truth and who is
lying okay this is a conversation about
sexual assault alright
so please don't muddy up the comment
section with oh he's lying or she's
lying like that is taking away from the
actual conversation but anyway it's like
I said I had a few problems with how
they how they talked about this
situation
what what proof does she have because I
already knew she had no proof so I'm
sitting there like yo what what proof
does she have like Brandon was saying in
the interview the girl was like kind of
giggling and like a B she was laughing
she was kind of laughing and it kind of
seemed like they were putting on an act
and the story never added up supposedly
she was extremely drunk but then
remembered everything so she didn't
remember how she got to the room or she
didn't remember what happened after that
but all of a sudden she remembered
everything that happened in the room so
I have a question for you bro yeah
something like that happens to you okay
you get sexually assaulted you get
trapped in a room locked in a room your
clothes ripped off are you going to a
YouTube news channel or are you going to
the fucking cops I'm straight-up
dude so the reason I'm making this video
is because not only is this a huge story
right now but these guys have a massive
massive platform and one of the biggest
issues when it comes to sexual assault
is these ridiculous narratives about how
a victim should or shouldn't act ok
again I'm gonna say there's probably 50
times throughout this video cuz I can
already see the comments coming like I
don't know I don't know the truth in
this situation right but like the
conversation of Oh like if you were if
you were really raped you would have
done this if you are really raped you
would have done that right like for
example when they were talking about the
evidence Oh where's the evidence you
don't have any evidence or anything like
that and again like for the conversation
as a whole like really really do you do
you think any woman who's being
assaulted is going to like set up a
camera or bring in an eyewitness when
it's happening you know what I mean like
I have I have heard of so many of my
friends going going to the police and
you know all these other things like of
course the authorities have like rape
kits and everything like that where they
can test I even heard and if any of you
know about this feel free to leave a
comment I heard that they are starting
to sell like at home rape kits and by
the way Jesse was saying that out loud
like that fucking sucks man
it sucks that you you might even need to
have one of those on you but then they
were talking about like oh oh you were
assaulted and and you go on you know you
go on social media or you go on
dramaalert
instead of going to the authorities I
don't know if you guys remember a few
months ago might be a little bit longer
than that but Cole Kerrigan he got into
this big thing with the ace family
saying that his friends were sexually
assaulted by
Austan aces friends or something like it
was a weird convoluted story I don't
even know what happened with that right
but anyways the the victim was I think
there was a consensus on it really it
really sounded like you know the victim
was assaulted whether or not the us
austin knew about it we don't know but
uh but yeah like there was a she
explained why she's kept quiet about it
for so long but anyways to talk about
like why wouldn't you go to the
authorities or anything like that
so anyways what I did was I've never
personally been sexually assaulted so I
went on my Instagram yesterday and I do
have a large female audience and I asked
him I said listen I'm doing a video can
you tell me some reasons why a woman
wouldn't speak up about their sexual
assault or would it go to the
authorities all right and hopefully this
section of the video educates some
people around this subject we live in
your trauma for months or years and
having your rapist get off anyways
backlash in the workplace they're
related to you people calling you a liar
or being alienated by social circles
she wouldn't believed that they'd
actually do anything to help I didn't
believe I had the evidence to back up my
claims scared they wouldn't believe me
all right
like just we're halfway through these
but like like do you do see this like
there's so many things and these are
these are my followers I don't know how
many of them are victims themselves
right but like like that one right there
like women are already afraid that they
don't have the evidence to back it up
and that's why I'm talking about some of
the things that Broadus and phase drug
we're talking about you know what I mean
so it says I'm FTM trans but I was
afraid the law wouldn't do anything or
believe me next one is they won't
believe her fear shame whore disgust
embarrassment social media I had another
one that's
just came here to say men also get
assaulted yes yes they do if you go
check out over on the main channel
it wasn't about sexual assault but it
was about the Johnny Depp and Amber
Heard story yes men can be victims too
so I don't want to take away from that
at all like men can be victims and for
men for men sometimes it's even harder
to come forward about that stuff you
know what I mean
but yeah the last one says the fear of
not being believed right so when we look
at those like there's obviously you know
a pattern there there's a lot of people
like the fear is not being believed
right like imagine imagine being in that
situation right you're a victim and
maybe you told a friend about it right
and they keep telling you you know just
speak up you got to go to the
authorities you got to do this you got
to do that and you're afraid that
someone won't believe you and then
finally you're like okay you know what
I'm gonna go I'm gonna go report this
and they don't believe you you know what
I mean like think about that like that
is you know the definition of what you
know when psychology talks about learned
helplessness you know what I mean and
there are some factors on here that
weren't even listed I had a friend who
just a couple years ago she was sexually
assaulted by a married man
a married man who had children she did
not report it to the authorities because
she was worried about this guy's kids
alright so again to kind of finish up
with this video like I don't know I
don't know what happened between those
two you know I don't know who's telling
the truth and who's not or anything like
that I wanted to make this video because
those guys have a massive audience and
hopefully hopefully someone who stumbles
across this video can realize that what
they were saying is kind of ignorant
when it comes to the topic of sexual
assault and we all need to start
understanding this a bit more and trust
me trust me like I know there are plenty
stories of people who have lied about
being sexually assaulted but we always
got a heir to the side of caution you
know what I mean and and see what we
could do to help the victims because we
like before blowing a story up and this
is why I like you know I understand why
it's important to go to authorities
because you can destroy someone's
reputation with it but like before the
story blows up we need to be there for
people who say they're a victim of
sexual assault and go go through the
proper channels if possible but in order
to have conversations with these victims
or you know these survivors like we need
to understand the larger conversation
around sexual assault so we don't say
something stupid and ignorant to them
like where's your proof you know what I
mean anyways that's all I got for this
video if you like this video please give
it a thumbs up if you're new make sure
