a few words on xxxtentacion

starryhoneyy:

– he brutally beat a young gay man, with the intent of killing him, in a jail cell where the man had no way of escaping, because the man was staring at him

– he horrifically abused and sexually assaulted his girlfriend, including holding her head under a sink and threatening to drown her

– he beat his girlfriend to the point of blindness while she was pregnant and then used his fans to further intimidate her into not testifying against him

– then later said he wouldn’t change any of his actions.

i am sick of seeing people try to justify his actions and their “r.i.p” posts by saying “his music was good”.

i have empathy for the family and friends who knew him before he was violent and abusive but the man himself deserves no respect. he lost that right because of his actions and karma caught up with him.

the bottom line is death does not automatically give you a free pass from being a horrible person in life.
