They. Had. To. Write. An. Essay.

I have no words and yet I have many words. This is outrageous, abhorrent and unacceptable “punishment.” @Cornell needs to release the essays and names of all employees responsible for this heinous decision. As for the rapists, may they not ever know a moment of peace.

@BSwirlsi Can’t even watch, sorry. Heard the story once and can’t listen to it again. Women need to get loud. 🇨🇦❤️

@JaneMactaggartL Thank you for heartfelt response. I share your outrage. The Board of Trustees of Cornell includes a who’s who of NY and @GovKathyHochul and they collectively knew and did nothing about a minor female being raped and drugged with ketamine for 7 hours! ITs over 50 people on Board

Everything needs to change! Everything! They have been abusing women for centuries & now we have some pieces of 💩💩 thinking they can get away with some essays 🪓🤬🪓

I am gobsmacked on the fact that the universities first call isn’t to the police department. Then that police departments do not take this seriously. Fvcking horrible.

Same DA and decade ago.... District Attorney Matt Van Houten

All of this! I’d like to see said “essays.” Do they admit guilt? It would seem they would have to, right? They aren’t going to write an essay saying they DIDN’T do it. Where are these essay assignments?! What do they say?

It gets worse 😡

And, again, this is why women don’t come forward. What’s the point? No one gets punished… especially if they’re young and/or rich.

@TeriDiperna I’m blown away by the amount of misogynistic crimes in the news this week. It’s so disturbing and discouraging.

An so it continues since 4ever, cultural, systemic, & institutional root causes that protect perpetrators & silence survivors. Couple, this w/misogynistic emerging right wing of politics, bro culture, gambling, ufc, more recreational drug use & finally the women that stand by it

I am sick to my stomach.

@Meidas_Jen Women of the World Do not allow your children to be brainwashed in an immoral PRIMITIVE male EGO BS religions that devalues their Mother. These deranged religions create entitled ManBabies who think they have a right to use abuse and control others.

@bdk1521 This! This! This! This! The whole system is such a mess. Let’s step up guys. Put an end to this culture of rape and misogyny.

🤦‍♀️Sadly the ppl who NEED to hear this👉🙈🙉🙊 I guarantee 99.9% of r@pe/sa survivors just shook their heads…..bc 99.9999% of survivors NEVER see an ounce of justice The system 🟰 “his word against her word” Bc that’s how it SA/R@PE works And “Her word” NEVER matters

This has been happening on every campus for the last 40 years. Why cant we advance as a country???

In Canada this can’t be “swept under the rug”. Charges would be filed, people would serve time!!

@LizzieNolla Women live in a rape culture. Choose the bear.

Won't destroy opportunities. Their ilk exist throughout business and government and they watch out for each other, even more than protecting each other from consequences, they REWARD each other with ill-deserved opportunities on and on and on

What sort of essays? Were they essays on respecting women? Accountabilty? Consent? How drugging and raping women is morally wrong and also a crime? I want to see these essays.

Women need to take to the streets!

I hope their assignments were checked for AI.😡😡😡🤬

Thank you for your intelligent clear passionate way you communicate! You are a blessing and I enjoy every post so much. Keep on being you. Much love and respect from Maine

Those essays should be public.

As a society we don’t care about women(even women don’t care what happens to other women)and the proof is that 77 million Americans voted for an adjudicated rapist as the leader of the free world. I feel women are denied/blocked at every turn to try to get justice,Epstein files!

They still have bright futures ahead of them. We can't prevent them from becoming teachers, pastors, police officers, lawyers, judges, and politicians.

And they probably just got AI to write it for them.

This disgusts me. Cornell should expel all. The essay writing requirement is not discouraging this behavior from future guys.

Blank. My rage is so white-hot, I'm blank.

Money in schools like Cornel speaks. The students and those parents need to speak but unfortunately the old boy school is a rich issue. Those same older female graduates need to start the convo to protected current freshman. #Cornelfreshman

In Canada if a newcomer is charged with rape he gets away with it, because the judges never want to compromise their status. You’re right it does need to change, a bullet is the best way to change it. Call everyone out, not just the rich white men you don’t like.
