#CutForJustin?

i know i may be a little late on this, but recently there had been this trend on Twitter that is #CutForJustin. i don't know when or how it started, but i heard it's because Justin Bieber had been taking drugs, and his fans are cutting to show their devastation at this.

i've seen the pictures, seen the tweets; you can't imagine how pissed i am at this trend.

it's not only unacceptable in the way that these fans are cutting themselves because of someone who doesn't know of their own individual existence.

why doesn't anyone cut for the soldiers who had perished for the country, or children who starved to death, or heroes who died in their sacrifices; why doesn't anybody cut for them?

what about the other teenagers who had resorted to drugs too? they may have had gone through suffering much more painful than whatever Bieber's reasons are for doing so.

this trend might have an impact on those people, you never know. maybe they did it for attention from their family, friends, the society, whatever. but when they see how much attention a freaking pop star is getting for the same thing, these people might just sink deeper.

what about the teenagers all over the world who has always been cutting, since childhood maybe, because of domestic abuse, or because of the bullying they got in school. they cut because it's a way to save themselves from that; how would these people feel if they see others doing what saves them, just because a little pop star is doing drugs? get what i mean?

i'm not sure anyone would read this, but i have to make a stand against this stupid trend. i have to speak for other self-harmers; my comrades, and of course, myself.

my scars, our scars, are a sign of our strength and survival. if you cut for Bieber, then yours are a sign of weakness, of letting a pop star take over your life.

fuck this trend i'm so pissed.
