Good evening guys,
I know a considerable length of time has passed between my end-of-year post and this one, so for the lack of postage, I apologise.
So you all are probably aware that I sometimes make posts about significant world events (once in a blue moon) when I'm not rambling on about what I just learnt from my misadventure called life. So this time, brace yourself for the response to this week's biggest media/social news headline: #cutforbieber.
Before I launched into a category-5 rant about how stupid it is to cut yourself for a talentless singer, I decided to find out what the big deal really was now that time had passed. Because even the Kony 2012 campaign turned out to be another mixed thing after a while; to this day I still don't know if it's real or fake. I mean, we all know that most of the governments in Africa are corrupt and they need to feed their people instead of their ammunition supplies, but does that mean that a whole campaign has to be made about ONE GUY who isn't the only one (???) doing these atrocities to others.
So before I made I my post all pushy and unsupported by the facts, I decided to properly look into what's currently going on before I made a klutz out of myself. And based on all the evidence that I could gather, here is my opinion and the lowdown on the biggest social networking headline of 2013 (so far!!!!!!!).
My personal opinion as a person who is the definition of anti-Bieber is that if this whole thing is legitimate, it's more than stupid. It borders on pathetic. If he smokes weed, as non-influential as it may be, it's his life choice. If he wants to risk screwing up his life, that's his business. It's like being a hipster or supporting gay marriage or getting a tattoo of a naked person: if you want to do that, that is perfectly up to you, keep in mind that people will disagree with you and you will be subject to criticism. And if you aren't prepared to ignore the criticism, don't get a tattoo of a naked person. While my ex never looked better, my mother doesn't approve of it...
Moving on, smoking weed/doing drugs is a choice in your life. It may be a completely stupid one, but it's a choice that people I know have made. And if Justin Bieber wants to do what the majority of celebrities do, which is drugs, that's entirely up to him. Cutting yourself in an attempt to make it stop is ridiculous. Don't ever harm yourself deliberately to influence people. That's it.
However, if it turns out that the whole thing was yet another "troll", I will be beyond disgusted with society. Self harm is a serious thing. I know people that have a history of it, for some that history is still continuing, and it has impacted their lives greatly. You wouldn't know it if you saw them walk past you, but if you met them and looked into them closely, you would see how damaging it can be. It is not a joke.
So to make a campaign which negatively focuses on self harm is in itself; fundamentally sick. I urge my readers to never take part in such disgusting activities. Along with seances and shark finning. They have no place in society and the fact people continue to do these things is saddening. It makes you pause and think: "what happened to humanity? What went so utterly wrong for people to be so heartless?"
And for those who weren't in the loop, a few days ago, photos were released of what appears to be Justin Bieber smoking marijuana. A campaign then began on Twitter called something like "cutsforbieber", where devout Beliebers tag the campaign on pictures of their acts of self harm, in an attempt for Justin to stop doing drugs.
That's just my summarized version. Many truths need to surface, which they will in time. Until then, I encourage you all to not take part in the campaign.
So in other news, I haven't been doing anything other than watching episodes of Doctor Who, eating, reading and my personal favorite: converting oxygen into carbon dioxide. Though tomorrow I'm finally leaving my house to go and see Skyfall.
I began writing this at 11pm on the 9th of January 2013, now it's in the morning of the 10th. So I bid you all good morning and that until I make another post, your life is bellissima!!
