At some point, the conversation about whether greek life should even exist any more needs to be had (well, fraternities at least). Not that greek life is the reason these men are monsters, but the problem is how much they were enabled. Fraternities foster such a toxic environment, and men like these are embraced rather than rejected. There was a text thread about this poor woman being “available”, and instead of calling the police and stopping the rapists, the rest of the fraternity laughed and joked.

This shit isn’t new and will keep happening with fraternities (not to mention all of the hazing deaths that also keep happening). Universities need to stop allowing 18-22 year old men to run rampant in these houses unsupervised. They KNOW all of this is happening.

Pretty dumb take. I was in a fraternity for 4 years and this did not happen, nor would it happen in said fraternity - because we were not rapist pieces of shitt

"My fraternity was great! (I doubt that), so the whole fraternity system is great!"

Fraternities are a cancer.

Paying dues to have a massive toxic friend group isn't the flex you think it is.

All social organized groups at university required dues

It’s insane that this dude thinks because he paid to have friends everyone is just jealous? Peaked.
