Exposing and Ending Child Sex Slavery is a Worthy Goal
by Sonya Yoshiki, a volunteer activist against rape, especially in Asian nations.

Volunteering for RINJ gave me an opportunity to bring awareness to the Sex Slave Trafficking in the world with Cambodia as its central hub. Doing that leads to people taking action. RINJ philosophies are well met with my personal goals.
When I see large social networking sites like Facebook making big money from sex slavery and child prostitution, it makes me sick.
Child sex trafficking is a big problem everywhere, including America.
Trafficking of sex slaves in the Subcontinent continues to worsen. It is now a problem all over the world in some of the largest population centers like India. Only in some countries do they prosecute this as rape but that’s what it is.
Most of the world with some exceptions accepts 16 as a minimum age of consent. RINJ advocates that 16 should be the universal age all around the world and that the countries using the age of 13-14 as the age of consent are seriously in error for a number of reasons. Notwithstanding this fact, Cambodia for one had an age of consent of 16 and child prostitution is its mainstay tourist industry.
Sexing 9-year-olds in Cambodia seems normal and OK when there is big money to be made. That’s why so many Americans come there to get girls. Big biz! Big money. Over a $Billion of sex pay and tourism. Cambodia does not want to stop sex trade of children because it is a big tourism industry. Many ‘customers’ are fat, sweaty and smelly smoking awful stinky cigars costing more than what my mother got paid for me. When I was just past 9 my mother and her sort-of-BF sold me into prostitution along with my sister. At first I refused and punished for breaching my duty-bound responsibilities as a daughter. I was sent away to a much tougher place.
A child’s relationship with a pimp is only abusive.
Sex with a child can only be rape. They do not consent to this horrible life. They can’t! They are too young. No part of this relationship with a pimp/slave owner is good no matter if the victim is cooperative or not. (I will explain later.) If you can get away, do it and don’t go back.
Starving to death is better than the way you die with them because you die while still breathing until your heart stops in a sad lonely death of disease or murder. That’s how I see it. I believe all people who *enslave* another with brutality will punish you and kill you in the end if you display a struggle against control. I went through that and my life was worse than the others for rebelling. But what they did to me was less than what the dates did to the other kids so rebelling was the right thing to do.
Anyone who owns you is not going to give you freedom for as long as you are worth some money.
I saw the demon in the eye. The demon is using the psychological torture and real physical pain to control you and will never stop. It’s an empty look and it has no soul behind the eyes. When you break that control once and escape, you are doomed to die by that person if you ever go back and give them the chance. That’s what I think. If it really is that same demon we are talking about, they only grow worse. I will always try and convince girls not to go back to that.
The industry in Cambodia in 1992 mostly were former Khmer rouge soldiers turned gangsters during and after the wars when Hanoi took over. There still was a Khmer Rouge and American influence but the United Nations had taken over as far as the world thought. That made it a good place for sex trade when the shooting stopped some people told me. Everything was corrupt. Everyone wanted girls.
There are many Thais and Vietnam people from Hanoi there too. Imagine the most powerful criminals that cause spines to grow cold and then you know who these people are. There was always turmoil that I did not understand. In 1993 a King came back which caused a lot of discussion but nothing changed because the United Nations and the government were in charge. Some people told me that is the safest it had ever been in Cambodia / Kampuchia. I thought Kings were supposed to be nice but it didn’t seem that way. None of this I understood and people intensely tried to explain but I didn’t get it. It’s very confusing.
In Takeo almost 50% of sex workers were below 17 years of age.
No organization has been able to count the kids because they are invisible. We were in strange, secluded places from where we were delivered to a place, or “dates” came to back rooms that were nice and apart from places we had to sleep in. We did not go with the adult whores or even the older kids. We sometimes were at places where rich people ate rare and exotic animals that are illegal to kill. Cambodia is well-known for being home to many exotic animals. They, like children are very susceptible to becoming victims of illegal smuggling and trading. These criminals show off their prized illegal consumables, like strange little turtles with soft shells that are supposed to be protected and snake.
After the arrival of the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia mission (UNTAC), prostitution grew dramatically again, not only in Phnom Penh but in all major provincial towns. By the end of 1992, sex workers in Phnom Penh’s overt brothels alone was estimated to number more than 20,000. With UNTAC’s departure in 1993, the number of sex workers decreased; in 1994, sex workers in Phnom Penh were estimated to be between 4,000 to 10,000 girls working in about 400 public establishments but while the number of overt sex workers declined after UNTAC’s departure, the age of sex workers also declined. A February 1994 CWDA survey found nearly 35 per cent of flagrant sex workers in Phnom Penh were under 18 years of age.
A January 1993 study by Human Rights Vigilance of Cambodia found 35 percent of sex workers in Phnom Penh’s brothels to be below 18 years old. Their March-April 1995 study in Phnom Penh and 11 provinces showed that minors (9-17 years old) comprised about 31 percent of the sex workers in these areas. In some provinces, the percentage of minors to the total number of sex workers was more than one-third such as in Takeo where almost 50% of sex workers were below 17 years old.
The actual number of children engaged in prostitution is much higher than what the CWDA and Vigilance surveys show. Their studies, for instance, were conducted in establishments where prostitution out in the open and done by people who have enough political clout to stave off fines and other official annoyances. They were not able to get information in a number of places where I was a prisoner because they could not enter for security reasons, like remoteness, barbed wire and armed thugs. Investigators suspected many places of harbouring child sex workers or where children are kept before being brought to brothels, but they could not get anywhere near them without an army and tanks. They had pencils.
I never saw any polls taken at the swimming pool at the Olympic Stadium and the park fronting Wat Botum, in Phnom Penh where pimps were the offical managers of those places and arranged for dates to meet kids there because they controlled it. Kids were picked up for sex by pedophiles. Also not in survey reports are kids who are in touch with or are maintained by pimps working in public service establishments which serve as the pimps’ front as well as the contact points for clients (e.g., barbers and traditional masseurs). The existence of these places or systems is reflected in reports prepared by various NGOs such as Krousar Thmey, Licadho, Little Friends, Save the Children Fund-UK, and World Vision International.
Broken eggs. Millions of broken eggs.
One thing I learned is that children are like eggs to these scum that run the sex slavery industry. They bring them to the market to sell them and many get broken in the process. All of their lives get consumed in the end to make money for whomever owns them. Broken eggs. Millions of broken eggs.
Many say Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen is a puppet of some criminals. (Now he is the criminal, some say.) He finally took over Cambodia by killing all the anti-communists as I was leaving in 1997. Gun fights were the distraction under which I left. I think I saw some of these powerful people before that.
I heard that for 20 years the criminals formed a corrupt shadow government and were killing all the good leadership people in Cambodia with Hanoi help. These ex-warlords are at the top places so nobody stops them running the sex and other criminal trade for many years.
Many say Hun Sen is a puppet of some criminals.
Hun Sen has opposed any extensive trials of former Khmer Rouge mass murderers but in July 2010 Kang Kek Iew was the first Khmer Rouge member found guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity in his role as the former commandant of the S21 extermination camp. These are among the worst of people on earth and their legacy is the death of millions. They are still very powerful by a different name.
Even if a kid does more dates the best u can get is more clothes and food. If you do less there is no food. The more rebellious kids always were disappointed in those very few kids who got away with a date or somehow and then came back anyway.
No kid worker can have a baby. U MUST NOT get pregnant if you are one of those girls. U mostly would die. Anyway, it is not good to have the baby at those ages. I have seen that too.
Imagine the most powerful criminals that cause spines to grow cold and then you know who these people are.
Cambodia is a transit hub for sold kids all over South East Asiaand southern China and even those who escaped from North Korea. I figure if you are between 8 and 13 you are worth money. One in 40 children in Cambodia itself will be sold. People come to Cambodia to bring kids they have for sale and people come there to buy kids and take them home. The estimates for the time when I left in 1997 were between 80 and 100,000 sex workers and about 2,000 were permanent young children (slave) sex workers where I was in Phnom Penh. I am telling you I saw more than that who were transients. Many boat loads. And these are the corrupt government’s estimates dating back to 1995/96. They are all lies to make things look better than they are. A million children have been trafficked through SouthEast Asia.
- More than 1 in 150 people in Cambodia are sex slaves or prostitutes (Perrin, et al., 2001, p.
13). It can be expected that at least 1 in 40 of children in Cambodia will be sold into sex slavery.
A Direct Observation Field Study Part III of a Series -Thomas M. Steinfatt, Professor of Communication, University of Miami, Fulbright Scholar, Royal University of Phnom Penh – Sponsored by USAID 6 October 2003
That environment taught me to think the way I do. I would never go back to that horror.
Very often this is how it starts for the daughters: the mother becomes alone and needs money or the mother is somehow involved with a wicked male who exploits her and her children. They figure that a daughter nearing 20 does not fetch any money.
My Mother’s “friend” had decided to take us to Cambodia to work for his “import/export biznesses“. My sister and I would be helpers instead of going to school. He could talk her into blow but not take care of two daughters. “biz” was a bad thing too. They took us away when I did not want “dates”. My sister and I did not like dates with “a hundred men a week” (that’s how to plan the money earnings in 1993). It was very bad for a long time of years. I rose above that in a violent escape in 1997. My 11th attempt at escape worked. I have scars I am now getting fixed.
In Japan where I was born the woman is dishonoured by being raped. Rapers and rape victims are both punished. U can’t tell your story. Now in Japan the government is mad at America because American’s keep raping Japanese women. It’s a sport. Japan wants the lessening of American military occupation on Okinawa, which comprises less than 1 percent of Japan’s total area, yet hosts three-quarters of all US bases, and just under half its 47,000 troops in the country.
That’s how it is. Same in China. Women who are raped are punished. They don’t make much distinction between a whore and a rape survivor. They treat both badly. They don’t make any distinction between a whore who was sold into slavery at 4 years old or someone at 30 who wanted to make extra money. It is dishonourable to be raped. It is dishonourable to be a whore even if you are a forced slave having sex for money that goes to your owner only. I was lucky I met nice people who helped me escape Pnom Penh in 1997. Very lucky.
As I said earlier, when I see large social networking sites like Facebook making money from sex slavery and child prostitution, it makes me sick.

Hi Sonya
Before I forget I notice “Sybil” had named xxxxxxx on her stalking page a few days ago and I know that is illegal and a serious criminal offence to call anyone those names.
I assume you all got screen shots of that and now she has changed it to RINJ Leader stalker etc.
Anyhow the interesting thing is I signed in to my face book to report it as abuse and FB told me I had already reported it before..
Not as that name!
Then I look at the beginning of her page and it says she started it on Dec. 25 2011. Remember xxxxxxx was mad at all you guys for the ‘barricade’ episode and was putting out fires from that all through his Christmas. He probably was not responding to anyone’s amorous wishes at that time but fighting with lawyers and advertising agencies.
How pathetic on Xmas she created a defaming bullying page against xxxxxxx, but I am not sure what name she had it called then.I think it was one of the rape joke pages.
I bet you noticed the date already, its good proof of how her libel started months ago even when she was pretending to be our friend to get that screwy story published (under a fake name) about how that guy raped her (he said he didn’t because he was ‘away’ on a possession charge at the time).
Sexual accusations are today what political accusations were during the McCarthy anti-Communist witch hunts of the 1950s. People believe that is the worst you can say in a cyber bully attack. This was how Sybil punished and hurt the last guy who rejected her aggressive pursuits? Should I mention his name?
There is so many screen shots showing how she keeps attacking members and how she convinced that Jane woman to believe her shit lies is mind blowing.
If she was a true frightened victim she would not be creating and writing for cyber-bully attack pages.
I would Not reply to that site, Jane just wants to get attention for her blog. I think save it all for the Lawyer and sue them too once you get all the search warrants using the IP addresses from here.
Even the BS blog should be served for stating RINJ & xxxxxxx has been bullying poor vulnerable thingy whatever her name is “Sybil” that should not have been printed as a fact.
They can not just label a person who we picked as a spokesperson and say the person is a con and fraud and stalker because she is mad at the group he is a spokesperson for- they should be ashamed, & apologize & delete..
If Sybil ever had made a report to Police they would have advised us when we talked to them and told her to stay off the internet and block all the people she had been fighting. I think she has problems of her own now after blaming that guy.
But she just continues her web of lies.
I wonder what she had called the page in December. I will dig through my screen shots and try to find it.
I thought it would be OK to say this after reading what Amanda wrote and you didn’t delete that. If this is too much info, just delete.
well good luck & take care.
LMFAO You people stalking Sonya talk like you are serious. Are you really going to hurt her? What a bunch of drama crap. I think Sonya has you three pretty much spun. ^_^ You should never have bullied her. I was surprised how long she took it. Did you see her in the YouTube videos she recorded? She mocks the hell out of Kali Stuart and then Violet Woods or whoever you really are… you lying piece of trash; you horrible piece of shit, falsely accusing that guy of rape and exploiting us to push that story across. You make me sick. I think you shot your mouth off trying to get attention for something that d i d n o t h a p p e n and now you try and discredit the people who know what you did in case they talk. You know what we talked about. You know what we found out. You know why you were disengaged. Did you really think the guy wouldn’t guess it was you and then contact the other people mentioned in the article? RINJ! I started a Facebook page on that very topic: http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-False-R-a-p-e-Claim-Problem-or-Not/459576290735803
The False Rape Claim – which of course doesn’t refer to anyone specific. Is anyone starting to get it yet?
Oooohhhh Amanda you’re terrifying! Really!
Oh gee, I’m so scared I just peed a little. Oh no, hang on, that was from laughing.
RINJ is a good group. Why are you all picking on this one person? Who cares what she says or what the bullies say about her for that matter. It’s just the internet.
You really do have no clue at all. How on earth can you compare going back to an abusive pimp – someone whose one aim in life is to make money off you by sending you out to have sex with strangers – to an abusive relationship? Do you know what its like when the person who causes you such pain is the only person available to give you comfort? Unlike a pimp an abusive man doesn’t tend to maximise his earnings by keeping more than one adult woman around at a time. There is nobody to turn to. And having no money for yourself is one thing but when you add in a child or two (or more) how do you live? How do you feed, shelter, clothe and protect them when you have nothing? Returning to an abusive partner in an effort to provide for your kids is absolutely nothing like girls drifting back to prostitution.
If I were you I would quit while you are so very far behind. Once some of the organisations that support women who have suffered intimate partner violence see the shot you are saying I would imagine that the bullying will get so much worse.
Your Question: “Do you know what its like when the person who causes you such pain is the only person available to give you comfort?”
My Opinion: Yes. The door was locked and they are the only one with the key and food.
You assert: “Unlike a pimp an abusive man doesn’t…”
My Opinion: A male pimp is an abusive man.
You say: “There is nobody to turn to.”
My Opinion: “50 million 6-9 year olds had no mommy or daddy to help them and they only had their abusers. I think they had nobody to turn to.
In parts of the world “patriarchy” is too mild a word. At this minute the total number of Asian girl-children being sold, sexed, or killed by men is greater than the number of children that live in your country.
I am sorry to hear of your struggle. Please read what I wrote. Point blank: I would not go back. Point blank: I am just sharing my experience and perspective and I am not saying any suburban housewife is less of a victim or has a less important story to tell.
I did not write about Southeast Asia sex slavery to belittle your circumstance. I write here about the relationship with a pimp is only abusive. No part is good no matter if you are nice. If you can get away, do it and don’t go back. Starve to death is better than the way you die with them because you die while still breathing until your heart stops in a sad lonely death of disease or murder. I believe all people who *enslave* another with brutality will punish you and kill you in the end if you display a struggle against control. I went through that and my life was worse than the others for rebelling. But what they did to me was less than what the dates did to the other kids so rebelling was the right thing to do. My rule of thumb: anyone who owns you is not going to give you freedom for as long as you are worth something. I really saw the demon in the eye. The demon is using the psychological torture and real physical pain to control you and will never stop. It’s an empty look and it has no soul behind the eyes. When you break that control once and escape, you are doomed to be killed by that person if you ever go back and give them the chance. They only grow worse if it really is that same demon we are talking about. I will always try and convince kids not to go back to that.

It’s never nice with a pimp. Even if a kid does more dates the best u can get is more clothes and food. If you do less there is no food. The more rebellious kids always were angry at those few kids who got away with a date or somehow and then came back anyway.
You talk about having children. No kid worker can have a baby. U MUST NOT get pregnant if you are one of those girls. U mostly would die. Anyway, it is not good to have the baby at those ages. I have seen that too.

I have always been very concerned about Meredith. I hope she will agree to end this though. I hope her blocked comments to you that she talks about are not threats but my guess is she is threatening you the same way she always threatens people who argue with her. She is not good at 2 way dialogues. She does not seem to read and comprehend that you are offering a way to stop the hate and move on.. I hope one of the others will realize that and remove CRINJ & the blog attacks though. Fingers crossed. You are doing a good job..Just keep writing calmly,they prefer when people freak out so just be calm and then they have nothing to fight about.
Still it is hard to predict them…take care..
I will check back later… Mary
“Mary”- I have not made any threats- except to call the proper authorities. My comments have not been published for two days. You know nothing about me. You and I have never had a dialogue because by the time you appeared on the RINJ scene I had already been blocked everywhere- including on the “RINJ Legal” and “RINJ Info” pages where you slandered my name. Do not pretend to know how I operate. Do not claim to be concerned about me. The only thing you are concerned about is that your scam is going to come to an end. I don’t even know what you mean by “end this” being as how I am not in control of the CRINJ blog. “Doing a good job?” By slandering me, making up lies, and making baseless accusations? Is that what RINJ has stooped to now? Well, then by all means, she is doing a good job.
“about the sock puppets… we posted screen shots on the “legal” page within days of them being created… they were the only likes showing on the CRINJ page and also 1 of them was shown on Merediths page as being liked and being created by her.” Another blatant lie from you. You had screenshots of “Adora” which is not me, regardless of how much you try to say so. I can prove I am not Adora, and everyone in CRINJ knows I am not Adora. As I said, you are giving me too much credit for things I have not done. I looked at the “sock puppet” pages. What is it they did exactly? Looks to me like they did nothing. They didn’t spout the racist, misogyny on the fake profile pages (So Sashimi) which you are understandably upset about. But once again, I had nothing to do with creating or contributing to that page.
No longer publishing me, So Yo – but still feeling free to tell lies that concern me and others?
Sonya…YOU ARE MY HERO and I’m glad you are standing up to this. Everyone who knows you KNOWS WHAT AN ANGEL YOU ARE. We know who “CRINJ” is and that they are just jealous of us. We know this. You my dear have EVERYTHING to live for and are the most wonderful person alive!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you, Kristi!
REMOVE ALL REFERENCE TO ME FROM THIS PAGE.
May I please have your undertaking that you have removed all your slanderous material. I can then go about verification and will replace this article with something unrelated.
Meredith, please discontinue your acrimonious posts here as they will not be published. If you wish to dialogue in a civil manner, I will comply poste haste. Please note that time is of the essence. Legal and extra legal responses to your persistent abuse toward me and persons known to me is on the verge of execution. The horrible things you are trying to post here only exacerbate. Govern yourself accordingly
So if you are talking with other people about removing the articles on the CRINJ blog and resolving this matter, why are you leaving this smut rag about me up?

You mentioned in a few comments you were interested in opening dialogue. I can be persuaded to proceed with dialogue as well if it is in a neutral forum where neither party has control. However, documentation of the conversation needs to be available to both sides. It is hard to know if a forum like this exists without an impartial third party to host, and neither group can trust the other to find one. However it’s the only way I’ll agree.
Perhaps e-mail is the best form? Hard documentation of what we’ve sent and received, and a manageable attempt at dialogue. I would be willing to have myself and some other CRINJ representatives included in such a dialogue.
Hopefully you’ll consider this.
You can contact me at so.yoshiki @ hotmail.com
You want dialogue? I have left you several comments you have failed to publish. This is past the point of dialogue. Stop slandering me or there will be consequences. I have already told you, you are only causing more trouble for yourself. I came to you and tried to talk and you told me to, “fuck off.” Now you say you want to discuss this? No thanks. I have not wanted to have anything to do with you in months. You are bringing all this up. You are making up lies. You are creating drama. If you want the CRINJ articles removed, then refute the evidence, don’t attack me personally. What will that accomplish other than fueling the fire? How could I not be angry when you have slandered me and called me all kind of things from a racist to a “false rape claimant”? You are a fake, a fraud, and a liar. Take this disgusting piece of garbage down if you have any semblance of a conscience or I will continue to publish real evidence and details about this situation on my blog.
I warned you that I would not permit you to use my Blog to launch personal attacks against third parties which you have persisted in doing.
I suggest you reconsider your threats and you resolve this fast. You have controlled a small number of people with falsehoods and convinced them to join you and launch horrible bullying attacks against me on the internet. Having lost my job and endured other hardships; after you directly approached a sponsor (who shared everything) and harassed them costing that relationship to go underground; after nearly 7 months of your harassing me I have for the first time responded. You choose your way ahead. I suggest you dialogue to resolve this now. You are thus far unscathed and you have not been held accountable for your destructive cyber bullying. I have nothing left to lose. I am standing up to you. I will take down this page once you have removed all your bullying rants and my google searches no longer find your poisonous bullying. Do you agree?
This is getting old. The “evidence” you produced doesn’t show anything. It shows me working hard as a volunteer for RINJ. Is that what you were trying to prove? Why don’t you post our final conversation when you accused me of being Max Pierre and told me to “fuck off” and called me “two-faced”? I have posted it on my blog. As for what you have done to deserve to be “bullied” (which is not what is happening, people are here defending me from your lies), you have lied, slandered others, manipulated others, stolen your story from an innocent victim of horrific abuse, harassed others online, and stalked me and others. You DO deserve to be called out on that. You are the abuser here.
Yup. Basically it shows entire normalcy until you flew off the handle because you thought you were banned or deleted when a bunch of us got disabled by Facebook. It was for sure a misunderstanding.
I get it. I watch constantly as people slip off the deep end working at finding and reporting all this shit on Facebook. It would destabilize Solomon. I want you to know that before you began your diatribes against me you were loved and cared about as a peer. You viciously turned on your peers for some ungodly reason. You don’t know who our leader really is but you put yourself in her bad books and she finally told us to delete you and “walk away”. Micheal was the last to do that but then his account was disabled by Facebook. You can read all about it here in the group called “Where In The World Is Ruffian Angel” – check the dates and you’ll get it. http://www.facebook.com/groups/ruffian.angel/
I tried to tell you that you mistakenly felt alienated. You had done that once before too. You spewed this angry nonsense about ‘rejection’ at me and finally I gave up and told you to fuck off. Well, I was tired of defending your tantrums. Repeatedly. Where is the disconnect? You think you can continue to badger people and harass them with immunity? Well. I get bad tempered some days because the past that haunts me I did not survive–I lost something. You don’t know me and you never will because I do not TRUST at all, but yeah, I thought of you as a friend. Sonya Yoshiki is my real name. It is said a little differently in the three languages of my mixed up family but it is the same me lol. And no I don’t trust anyone and you can’t find me unless I let you. I am sorry about my afliction but that’s how I am. Are you ready to end this… I was serious about the tree. I get that way sometimes. Spring is the worst. Cherry blossom time to the start of summer. I like it in Canada but I know there are things back home I need to face. I will spend some weeks fixing problems instead of feeling awful about them. Maybe you want to do that to.
I have the screen caps of the conversation posted on my blog. I never mentioned “rejection”. Once again, you are spouting more lies. Do you ever tell the truth? Do you know what that word means? I am over this. No one believes you. You change your story daily and do not produce any evidence. You make outlandish, baseless accusations against me and then claim that YOU are a victim! Typical Sonya behavior. I am not Adora. I am not Max Pierre. You give me far too much credit for the things done to you. I did not set up the “So Sashimi” page. I have never set up a pro-rape page. You are slandering me with garbage. Say what you want. You are only giving me more ammunition to take you down.
I have said what I believe. Correct me if I am wrong because all I see is constant vitriole from you, Meredith. Because you stalk me and talk about every aspect of my life as if you are an expert you raise the suspicion among everyone watching that you have done a lot more to me thane even you claim. I’ll summarize: you continually talk about what you publish against me in some blog and in aggregate say you have “proof” (your own blog being the proof) that I am a bad person to be hated and deserve to be bullied for that reason. Others have come to your bully party.
No. I am not going to read that. I pay no attention to you but I keep getting reports of actions in inboxes and then lost my job. I have read enough. There is no point in posting shit anywhere and directed me to it. Why do you hate me so much? I am going to fight back against your 6 months of attacks on me viciously unless we put an end to this. Do you feel me? TRY! You better try. You said you want me gone (disapeared) … maybe you should chill out, dialogue and clear this up instead.
this is very sad what happened to you Sonya. My sister was bullied like this and these people here seem exactly the same type. they are sick. cheers for Sonya for standing up to the bullies. I hope it feels good for you. women cyberbullying other women these days is very common. what’s wrong with the world??
I could claim that it is being done as tit for tat but it is obvious that you aren’t interested in the truth.
Not that it is. It is merely trying to right an injustice.
then perhaps you could point me to what this kid has done to deserve to be bullied in such a manner. mass murder? rape? what did she do? do you have any links to her crimes? there are certainly none here in this page. i searched online and find this yellow crinj bar and her name mixed up with Cambodia which she admits. was she one of the pimps? is that what you are saying? everyone here has vague innuendo but nobody has specified what her crime is and why she deserves to be bullied.
I don’t know who you really, and I don’t particularly care. But I do care that you persist in lying and attacking people. I know you do that because I have been on the other end of it, when you accused me of making racist slurs against you. Quite frankly I didn’t bother to read your whole blog post. Once I got the idea that it was a combination of you attacking someone you obviously feel extremely threatened by and more bad fiction I gave up. I did however start to read the private communications between two people, neither of which are you, that you posted a link to. I’m pretty sure THAT is illegal. Something along the lines of wiretapping I would imagine.
Give up and grow up, Yoshi, or whichever fictional character you to claim to be.
Five Things, So Yo:
Bullshit you don’t know how somebody could be blocked from a website. You DID it! Coward. I’m blocked too from seeing the odium about Meredith but fortunately not everybody is. The time that you keep promising to tender real evidence is getting longer and longer. Bit like threatening somebody with the boogie-man, really; he just never actually materializes.
Nobody cares what sort of a star you were, it’s too gross to even imagine. Ha – your lies and their putative truth are nobody’s business now? Except they are when you hurt people because you’re posing as an anti-rape “star”. You are NOTHING. Many of us have provable track records – which is more than anyone can say for you, and it is because we are activists that truly care about rape and survivors that we will continue to disseminate the truth when you lie.
Re Nicholas Connor: would he, or anybody REALLY claim affiliation with – to borrow a phrase – the pile of shit that is RINJ? No, I shouldn’t imagine that this would be the case with anybody who values their image. If you have such an illustrious list of professionals and actors, then let’s see! I suppose that’s why Wiki thought you looked like shit, yes? All those big RINJ fan names that didn’t appear? You should be proud, and publishing your sponsors! I suppose that’ll be none of our business too, huh?
You rang the police to enquire about Meredith’s case and they told you – a nobody from god knows where – victim details and that nobody laid charges under Meredith’s name? Excuse me, but, hahahahahaha. Tell us another one as good as the other one. Doesn’t quite work that way.
If you’re going to lie. then for god’s sake at least be good at it.
Nik has a party at his house. It’s very big. A bunch of us stayed over. Yes he has wireless. He is totally behind RINJ and so are many other actors and professional people.
we will write a blog about him too and destroy him as well. One by one we will destroy anyone who associates with RINJ. Every new person who volunteers, we will attack them and harass them til they go away. We CRINJ at RINJ
Riiggght. Suuuure. And if we contacted him he’d tell us how much he loves RINJ, right? Hahahahaha, whatever.
This is not about disagreeing with you. This is about the fact that you are a fraud. I wrote ONE of the articles on the CRINJ blog. Are you saying it was not true? I provided evidence for what I said, which is much more than you have done here. All you are doing is slandering me with baseless lies. As for stones coming back around, ditto.
I am not a fraud but a very ordinary person. I have asked you for nothing except to leave me alone. Instead you have published my name all over the internet. I google my name and only come up with your trashy attacks. Leave me alone. You do not have the right to talk about me or any person close to me and you do not have the right to publish articles about me slandering me and threatening me. I am not a public figure and you are causing me harm.
Gosh, So Yo, if only you were actually an ordinary person, and not a completely poisonous faker. I know you’re not publishing my comments but whatever. Nobody has any riuhts to say anything but you, is that it? Got it! Hey, shouldn’t you be looking up another porn-star’s pic to claim is you?
LOL I actually was a ‘gravure star’, not a ‘porn star’. But that’s my business, not yours.
You will not be using my page to launch personal attacks against people who are not able to defend themselves on the page. Meredith is so obsessed with my boy friend that she can’t control herself. He doesn’t want you Meredith. Your attentions are unwanted. Go away. Get over it.
Obsessed with your boyfriend??? He is a repulsive, disgusting fraud. How old is he anyway? At least 45 by our count. Sorry, that’s a bit old for me. You idiot. I have not had any contact with him in months, just as I have not had contact with you. You are digging this all up again. Also, I don’t date racists (calling people “niggers” as he did) or misogynists (starting a “false rape claim” page). Don’t flatter yourself. Take this page down and you will not hear from me again, just as you weren’t hearing from me before it was up.
I will take my rebuttal to your CRINJ attacks on me when they disappear.
Meanwhile you lie. Here is proof of those lies. Everyone was very kind to you.
http://rinj.org/attacks_on_members/meredith/
This is not a rebuttal to the CRINJ articles, this is a personal attack on me. Please do refute the evidence we have provided in the CRINJ articles. If you do that, we will gladly remove them.
You are publicly making personal attacks on me and I am going to reveal everything about that. As for your disagreeing with me or somebody I know, that is no justification for you to launch personal attacks against me. You live in a glass house and you throw stones.
You creep, you know I am blocked from the RINJ website and can’t even read other lies you choose to post about me there. You are a spineless coward.
I know no such things. And I don’t understand how you can be blocked from the RINJ website.
None of us has ever threatened you. You don’t even go by your real name, so what do you care what we say about “SoNya”? It’s a fake name with fake pictures of porn actresses. As for causing harm, what do you think this page is doing?
The whole keeping your honor in Japan thing…really….stop it, So Yo, you slay me…rofl
Agreed. She should off herself!
Shit, I didn’t think to do that! She doesn’t seem to be editing mine though…
You morons will go to hell for harassing Patrice Oneal, the only true intellectual comedian. Your big words you used Yoshiki are just shit-talk. I can’t believe Patrice, for shame. All this superfluous argument he made, all the unnecessary points; he shoulda just turned around right there and raped her, that would have been hilarious.
Oh and “fukkin” and “LMFAO” is vintage So Yo. Really Sonya, however do you find the time to manage these 94757480 identities?
We get it, you’ve got a thing for Patrice O’neal. However there’s no reason to wish rape on Sonya just because she disagrees with you. Rape isn’t funny, and it especially isn’t funny as a thinly veiled threat of rape to someone.
i agree. that is disgusting. i found that youtube video and read some of the comments and wanted to throw up. look what you fighting women are dragging into your chatroom. shame on you all. people like suckonit are the ones you should be fighting, not each other
If RINJ had engaged my request for my boundaries and mental health to be respected by asking for trigger warnings. This would not be happening right now.
If Sonya hadn’t told Louise, a survivor of domestic violence, that DV survivors were stupid for not leaving their partners. This would not be happening right now.
If RINJ hadn’t cut Meredith out of their circles for not specifically following instructions. This would not be happening right now.
In fact, if Sonya hadn’t posted this entire post in an attempt to defame both Meredith as well as CRINJ. This would not be happening right now.
Tell RINJ to accept criticism and open dialogue instead of beckoning unquestioning loyalty from their volunteers like cult leaders. To get respect, one needs to give it.
Yes it is all about me. A very angry, unmanageable, abused person who flies off the handle too often about certain topics.
You talk about me stealing an innocent victim story. Go to her and ask her about me. Do it!
You are not talking about RINJ you are talking about Sonya, me in every instance. So, I am messed up. How many times did I try to tell you that?
This is all me. I know. And you have waged an internet cyberbullying war on me that has brought out some very bad people to join you. Not to mention your attacking truly innocent people and conveniently saying that they are really me and are to blame for what I say and do.
*”If RINJ (Sonya) had engaged my request…. for trigger warnings (Asking a bad-tempered angry-bitch survivor for sympathy is like asking a hungry shark not to bite too deeply–you won’t get what you want. Sorry I get bad tempered some times. I am sorry you have pain. I never realized about trigger because in my 1st language it means a different thing. I have learned that “trigger” messes me up too and I don’t know that thing is why I behave badly at times because it is the old anger coming out. I then spit my words and try to make myself be alone and unwantable. If you are the nasty one you don’t get picked as often. That is selfish selfprotection. That’s how I learned behaviour in the past. Be undesirable is the best is what I learned. Whenever I feel threatened I become undesirable. Bad habit. Anger turns into pain and grief and depression which turns into more self doubt and a vicious curcle begins. ((Therapy has taught me a lot.)))
*If Sonya hadn’t told Louise, …. (My English is not always so good. I look at text books and dictionary.com. I say things backwards and I did not mean what she said I meant. Deleting me prevented my explanation. That was deliberate. That person reminds me of someone. I won’t say. The article remains exactly as it was to this day: http://www.facebook.com/notes/sack-vile-kyle/why-listen-to-people-like-rush-limbaugh-and-kyle-sandilands-exit-relationships-w/168762226568268)
*If RINJ (Sonya) hadn’t cut Meredith out of their circles for not specifically following instructions(\”following instructions”/ LOL OK, I ignore that XD.)….. (Meredith knows the truth of that… but you can read it in the dialogues with her. There are many more.)
*In fact, if Sonya hadn’t posted this …This would not be happening right now.” (Exactly. Dialogue, even if you must all communicate through abuse to me, is not such a bad thing, is it? You do not know how much worse I have had to accept in my life, I want it to end.)
When I said RINJ, I mean all RINJ admins. You were not the only person who came and attacked me. I can see now that you project a lot of personal insult from criticisms against you, however I’ve always criticized what you’ve said and done, and what RINJ has said and done. I’ve constantly and respectfully called you out on what you say, but you specifically. If it is not about you, then it’s not about you. Give me a little credit, I know where to point my accusations.
As for the rest of it…honestly, and I’ve said this before. You’re too little, too late.
I get it, I do, but being a survivor doesn’t give you a free pass to abuse other people. Regardless of your life as a survivor, you were still abusive. I reached out to RINJ, I still have a copy of the initial private message I sent to Amanda Miles to attempt to clear up the misunderstanding. I was ignored, and then a comment on my blog said “Have a nice life.”
I TRIED to open dialogue with you guys and you wouldn’t have it! Even now, when I defend you from someone suggesting you commit suicide, you delete that message. I believe it’s because you want people who support you to think that I am an abusive person that would allow that.
You’re still responsible for your actions, and while I do appreciate you coming out and explaining your side like this so I’m more understanding. You hurt a lot of people.
We did not form those sock puppet identities, we did not create any pro-rape pages, and none of us are Max Pierre.
Also, and I can’t stress this enough. If you have evidence, it has to speak for itself. You can’t point to a rape page and say “CRINJ created this” without showing how CRINJ and the rape page are connected. There have been rape pages that mysteriously popped up to claim it was us and spammed our page as well as their own to discredit us. We even had to release a public statement to let people know that anyone who claimed they were us outside of our four mediums were lying.
I would LOVE to believe you’ve reached out to me in good faith here. But I’ve been burned too many times personally with RINJ, and it hurts me to see you doing this to a wonderful friend.
Show us the connections you have between these pages and CRINJ. I will make sure to kick out all of those people responsible.
My name is Trish, not Meredith, not Louise, not Max, it’s Trish.
I’m so angry and flabbergasted now that this whole post didn’t even make sense…I’m afraid I’m going to have to step away because you’ve triggered me a bit with this.
Nobody burned you, just disagreed with you. You can’t have everything your way. Sorry to break your paradigm wherein I am supposed to be a monster. I weigh less than 95 pounds. I would not make a good monster. As for Max Pierre and the others they exist; they are real; and they are among you campaigning against me. You wear that by association. That’s common law. The attack pages do exist… I provide you links. This is what you enjoin with your “CRINJ” so-called “membership”. That you would participate in a group that has members conducting things you deplore is a serious source of conflict for you. Anyway, Trish, I am sorry you are sad. I read the conflict in what you write and I get it. Think happy thoughts and have many happy days.
I didn’t argue their existence, I asked for proof connecting them to CRINJ. I don’t deny they exist because we’ve seen them, I believe they’re still around in Facebook space somewhere.
Max Pierre exists, we know this as well, but he is not an administrative member of Crinj. He may be considered a supporter, yes, as you know he’s shared the link to our blog to a few of you. However his actions are his own and are in no way condoned by us.
I never said you were a monster, but when a group first states they want to be a resource and support group for survivors of sexual assault, spams that message everywhere, and then when someone asks for that support call them weak.
As I said before, you still have not provided any proof connecting CRINJ with these hate pages against you. The evidence you provided is evidence they exist, but you have to provide evidence that connects them to CRINJ.
The same goes for Meredith, we already know Meredith was there in the early stages of RINJ because she confirmed that fact in the blog post detailing her story.
Asking for proof of connection is not a conflict…it’s literally asking you for evidence connecting these pages to CRINJ. I look forward to seeing this evidence.
Oh dear. You said: “group first states they want to be a resource and support group for survivors” RINJ never identified as a ‘support group’. You seriously misunderstand “Support Group” it is not a “Victim Support Group” that you find at the *Facebook Group*: http://www.facebook.com/groups/rinj.campaign/ whic is a “Facebook GROUP: Support The RINJ Campaign – Rape.Is.No.Joke” on Facebook that “SUPPORTS” a Facebook Page (which advertises and acts as a business or NPO) … That is a Facebook Group we use for dialogues and debates, user input, discussion and so on to support this page: http://www.facebook.com/rape.is.no.joke which we use corporately to deliver our message of news and views. The discussions are encouraged in the Support Group for the Page and discouraged on the page itself. We rigidly ban trolls on the http://www.facebook.com/rape.is.no.joke page just as does any brand.
Ok… about the sock puppets… we posted screen shots on the “legal” page (link below) within days of them being created… they were the only likes showing on the CRINJ page and also 1 of them was shown on Merediths page as being liked and being created by her. If 1 of their admins did not create those pages mocking RINJ members then why did the CRINJ page have them liked and have their conversation posted on the CRINJ page. IF that is not enough proof that one of them either created the immature pages then at least they should admit one of their admins approved the pages, (until 1 of their admins finally deleted them under their liked pages). It clearly shows they allowed them to post on CRINJ wall and had them all liked and the comments were clearly mocking RINJ and joking about Max. The same is true of Max. You own it Trish. These are your actions as being a person part of this cyberbullying and harassing collective. My concern is what you are doing in blogs all over the internet under the name of CRINJ.

I have answered some of your questions, now perhaps you would answer one of mine.
Having written to me on my blog, this blog here, that you feel that I am deserving of this harassment and cyber bullying because a) I instead of honouring your request for “boundaries” banned you from a group I maintained; b) someone named Louise disagrees with my views on domestic violence; c) I banned Meredith; and d) I, with the written permission of at least one person in each of the conversations, published the transcripts of facebook ‘chat’ conversations (have you read them?) in this blog.
I am telling you that the following is an excerpt from the current Canada Criminal Code and asking you would you continue to knowingly participate in this campaign to bring harm to me which you have repeatedly claimed that I deserve for various reasons, knowing this?
264. (1) No person shall, without lawful authority and knowing that another person is harassed or recklessly as to whether the other person is harassed, engage in conduct referred to in subsection (2) that causes that other person reasonably, in all the circumstances, to fear for their safety or the safety of anyone known to them.
Now don’t panic. I have no intention of bringing harm to you in any manner whatsoever. I am no rat. I just want you to realize that you need a reality check. Your bullying is not justified and it is bordering on an indictable criminal offence in your jurisdiction. For sure you are in the grey area of a hybrid offence which is basically a summary offence and a ‘slap on the wrist’. I know this because I have recently been coached as a result of certain things I said to my therapist. Do a reality check. What are you dong enjoining a team effort to hurt someone? What is your goal? What is any bully’s goal? Did you know that I have the right to be stupid; a liar; a clown; a fool; have poor English; have opinions you don’t like; can choose who I will speak with and who I won’t; and that I can be and do all of these thing together without risk or fear of criminal harassment. You don’t have the right to determine that I am a bad person therefore you can bully me. Actually no one does.
I am in dire straights. This has to stop. I have been significantly injured. Wake up, Trish. You got a little too carried away.
Have a good night.
Hey Sonya,
I haven’t forgotten about this. I’ve just had a pretty busy weekend and I’ll be sure to respond to everything this week. Just letting you know!
Thanks Trish. Please use email as I don’t have time to deal with all the spam on this thing so I will be ending the comments shortly. So.Yoshiki@hotmail.com
Have a good week.
Oh. I want to answer this for you. You say… “When I said RINJ, I mean all RINJ admins. You were not the only person who came and attacked me.”
Hmm. You were on the “Support Group” (http://www.facebook.com/groups/rinj.campaign/) as I recall and that is a free-for-all. All the comments, posts and so on are still there. Go have a look. There are only two admins on there. I remember you got caught up in something that had nothing to do with you. I got into troubled and was calling out for help. Dolly and I were publishing the comments and threats people were making against us (threats of rape and significant violence etc) and you wanted them to issue a “Trigger Warning” while we were getting slaughtered. I was sitting at a McDonald’s as I am now on my netbook. There are two gangs in this neighbourhood. Queen and Spadina. (52 Division 416-808-5200) I got into a fight with one of them over the things I posted about the (then-living) Patrice Oneal’s rape jokes about Condalizza Rice http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjIuPSuYSOY . RINJ has a big campaign on Youtube trying to clean that crap out. Anyway, things were happening too fast and furious to be politically correct. They threw my phone down and I had my netbook. Yes. That was the night. Get it? Dolly had a shitbird at you. Somebody called five oh and someone called Bonnie who came into the joint at a very good time. Nuff said. There are others who know about that night. Maybe they have the guts to speak out. I doubt it. Anyway, you are in a wrong paradigm on that one. Sorry you got offended but there was nothing in all of that that had anything to do wit you in any way. If you go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjIuPSuYSOY and keep gong bck and back in time about 6-7 months ago you will find pages and pages of dialogues from the actual people at the McDonald’s.If you go to Bonnie’s facebook page she has pictures of them AT McDonald’s posted in a folder on her profile. Trish, this was nothing intended to offend you. People were getting hysterical. Your demanding boundaries and trigger warnings from a person screaming for help just did not fly. I posted what that guy said he was going to do to me in a browser window that was open at the time. Nothing personal. It was a bad night.
What happened Yoshiki to people that realized difference between endorsing rape and cracking a joke? What happened to people knowing that in comedy no subject is taboo? What happened to people respecting the fact that a revered comedian passed away leaving him be, rather than shamelessly promoting an unconstitutionally acceptable campaign? By the way Patrice served time dew to an intentionally false rape accusation. In essence go fuck yourself.
In essence it sounds like you know a lot about self-fuckery
You saying you want to eat my dick? Awesome, let’s meet up. Oh wait. That looks like cat juice on your face. You be a fukkin dyke. My puter now has the E-clap from talking to you. LMFAO
Somehow I don’t imagine that your, er, equipment would be up to much, Keyboard Warrior. And Bravo, Sonya, for now allowing homophobic and degrading content on your blog! You really are just so anti-rape, aren’t you?
So I looked through the RINJ Legal page. Mostly I see some attacks on RINJ and some insistence that it’s us. However, I don’t see where you connect the dots between these fake profiles and posts and CRINJ? I do remember the sock posts, because I deleted them shortly after they were posted. Believe it or not, the CRINJ page on facebook has several moderators that keep an eye on content on the Facebook page. You yourself know this, because you were one of the people banned for abuse.
Also, as I have stated before, Max Pierre is not a member of Crinj, he doesn’t even like the page on facebook. If he promotes our writings, that is his perogative, but he himself even stated that he was not affiliated with CRINJ, just a supporter against RINJ. That doesn’t mean that I haven’t communicated with him. He, we believe rightly, distanced himself immediately from Crinj so as to not hinder our work. We find this commendable.
The thing about evidence is that it should speak for itself. If you make claims on what you think the evidence speaks for, then it’s not really evidence, just your interpretation really. You have failed to show the link between Crinj’s criticisms and legitimate hate groups set up against you, and legitimate profiles used against you.
In short, you haven’t really proven what you’ve said you’ve proven. I noticed you changed the story to say you actually took this story of Cambodia sex slavery from someone else. It is refreshing to finally see at least a little bit of honesty coming from you, after all this time.
Sorry, we’re not buying it. Show us the connections between us and these groups? Where are they?
I don’t know what you are talking about. Get off my page. Stop your trolling. Until you stop attacking me all over the internet you will have to accept that I am now going to tell my side of the story.
I have another blogger where I am going to publish all the conversation transcripts. The “Legal” page is one Jan started but was asked to stop.There are still 8 pages on Facebook attacking people personally they way you attack me personally here and all over the internet. Get off my page and get out of my life. Leave me alone. You have no business with me. I am not feeling very well.
Then YOU stop attacking everybody else all over the internet. YOU leave Meredith alone. This is what you’ve always done, Sonya, bullied and abused others and then you cry “Stop victimizing meeeeee!” and “Oh, look what you’ve done I’m all fragile now, you horrible beasts!!!” (exactly what you did when you were challenged for attacking victims of domestic violence on my Facebook page – we were “worse than the ‘gangbangers’ who raped you in Cambodia”). Pulling the victim card – like many abusers do – will not work. You simply cannot expect to slag people off and not have those people defend themselves. Or are you special, are you? Of a certainty there’s something very wrong with you, and it appears to me to be lack of conscience and grandiose sense of entitlement. As far as telling your “side” of the story goes, what you call “evidence” is frankly making me laugh. You have nothing. As ususal.
I’m not attacking you, as a person, I’m criticizing what you’re saying about Meredith and requesting proof to back up your claims. This whole post is an attempt to defame and bully a friend, and I will stand behind her. Also, I know Meredith well enough to know she doesn’t communicate like that. I’ve never seen her talk in caps like that in my life. Every time I, personally, have called you out on your crap, I’ve been respectful.
Stop defaming my friend.
You say you were happy to have a white friend, but you also say you never knew what I looked like. It was me who never knew what YOU looked like because you hide behind pictures of porn actresses and models. You say you don’t know what I looked like but that we Skyped? How is that? I never Skyped with you. I have readily admitted I had TWO Facebook accounts. Basically, you are just full of shit. Anyone who reads this with any critical thinking skills can pick apart your story so easily. Get it together. I am printing everything and taking this to the police. You are only causing more trouble for yourself.
get off my page
Right, Meredith. One of the “replies” that came to my own blog was one about how Asian women should accept rape – nice try, So Yo.
CRINJ has many masterminds; I live in Australia as I believe my IP address will clearly show. Where you cannot prove your claims against Meredith, we can prove ours against you. It is amazing (or perhaps not given that it’s you) that you would blame US for saying you were raped in Cambodia. You said it and you are still saying it albeit with some backpedalling.
Where is your new evidence? All you did was rewrite your sob story. We have already discredited that. Your lies about me are outrageous. We never had a conversation about how Asian women deserve to be raped or should just accept it. No woman should ever just accept abuse or mistreatment, including me. No one believes you because you have continually told lie after lie and these are outlandish claims. I made a false rape claim and sent a guy to prison for five months and five weeks? Oh, someone would say that? Yeah, sounds very real. Try again. And all of this is based on the fact that I am fat and ugly and can’t get a date, right Sonya? Your age is showing (if you even exist). Grow up and find something else to do with your time. I am not the mastermind behind CRINJ. I was asked to join CRINJ based on my experiences with RINJ and all the abuse I took at your hands. You have given me far to much credit for things I have not done. Take this page down or produce some evidence.
I read all your bullshit on Patrice. Sure rape is not a joke. Its a terrible invasion of a person in one of the worst ways imaginable. Joking about rape is a joke. Anything can be a joke. That’s what comedy is. I’m sure there are lots of things that you find funny that I find repulsive. Like any blue collar comedy. -Shudders- Joking isn’t justifying, condoning or persuading. And anyone that can attack a comedians work like you did Yoshiki with an argument based on a serious matter is ignorant. Joking about rape is a joke. Trying to turn comedy into serious isn’t funny, it’s ignorant.
Sure, it might be considered comedy, but the “It’s just a joke!” line doesn’t make you exempt from employing critical thought on the humor you find funny.
The reality is that in our current culture rape isn’t taken seriously, and violence against women is dismissed. So making jokes about these particular issues doesn’t help that situation at all, it shows that your right to tell a joke trumps the right of a rape survivor to be harmed by that joke.
Perhaps when rape accusations are investigated properly, and accusers taken seriously can we talk about joking about rape.
This stuff doesn’t exist in a vacuum, humor is a reflection of our society and the power dynamics lined with in. It is a privilege to laugh at a rape joke, as a survivor, I do not have such a benefit.
Protesting rape jokes is the same as defending against Sonya’s continual tissue of lies? Sounds mighty like So Yo’s argument that people that defend against her malice are “rapists.” Suckawneet, indeed. So Yo’s scraping the bottom of the barrel for people to defend “her” crap.
please do not spam my page
Keep fighting, sweetie!
Yeah “she’s” a real “sweetie.” You must be so proud to be defending a unconscionable liar, bully and victim blamer. Good for you!
get off my page and leave me alone
I was in her martial arts course and know that she is no liar. Looking at this dogpile it is clear which three are the bullies here. A womyn like Yoshiki-san knows there are no “victims”, only survivors.
Oh and btw, Sonya, still waiting to hear from your lawyers about my alleged slander of you
Oh Boy, I can hardly wait to see this “evidence” So Yo.
Oh, and by the way, RINJ was recently discredited by Wikipedia. So, Mr. “Wikipedia Editor”, what does that say about their “organization”? Let “Sonya” present her evidence tomorrow. There is NOTHING. What she keeps deleting from my posts is the fact that I SHOW MY FACE. I AM WHO I AM. SHE IS NOBODY. A SHADOW. A FRAUD. NOT A REAL PERSON. Get it??? Like she herself said, she MAKES UP LIES. Believe what you want. You’re just a rat on a sinking ship.
Search of “so yoshiki crinj” yields three pages and 28 unique results. There are pages slandering ‘So Yoshiki’ in different ways. I found dead links to an alleged screen capture of So Yoshiki allegedly saying that she is a Cambodian refugee. I read the post about a Cambodian refugee on “Nobody Important” a page on Facebook. It does not refer to a person by name.
I find no evidence of any of the alleged wrongdoing by RINJ. I am a Wikipedia editor and have suitable skills at searching the internet for documentation.
I did find what is alleged to be So Yoshiki arguing with ‘people’ on a YouTube video titled “Patrice Oneal schools brawd on funny” and her language is quite strong. The video suggests the rape of an American female figurehead is “funny”. The language of the opponents was angry and the language of the defenders of “rape jokes” was worse and in part comprised a series of ugly threats of rape against Yoshiki. Nothing warrants this conduct. There is a flavour of this seen also on CRINJ blogs.
I would not want to be on the receiving end of Ms. Yoshiki’s anger but given that she is a self-ordained crusader against rape jokes I would suggest it unwise to approach her with a rape joke.
Whoever these trolls and vandals are who attack you, Yoshiki, they are for sure not opposed to rape as basically what they are doing to you is a form of bullying for power and control. That’s exactly what rape is: bullying for power and control.
You are doing exactly what “Sonya” has done to me this whole time. BULLY ME. STALK ME. HARASS ME. If you really are the intelligent, unbiased person you claim to be, you would have read the information presented on the CRINJ blog and seen the evidence of this. Thank you for contributing. Your name will be going to the police as well.
That’s true. Those screen captures were reported and taken down by various RINJ members after we posted them. We are in the process of uploading the screen captures to a separate server from WordPress and they’ll be up shortly. RINJ is famous for deleting their own stuff to cover the tracks. Sonya has repeatedly used her status as a survivor to attack
Also Wikipedia editors that had no affiliation with us voted on RINJs deletion due to the fact they weren’t notable. Also part of having a wiki page is reporting all of the facts of the organization. Including the criticism against it. As I said before, multiple times. We are not pro rape. We are anti RINJ.
Unlike Theawinde, you don’t get the benefit of the doubt for posting in good faith from me. You are so transparently Sonya-esque in posting to compare us to rapists. Snore. Old, very old. Good for you for supporting somebody who attacks real rape survivors and steals the stories of others!
Oh, you are so Yoshiki defending Yoshiki! Seen it all before; the carefully chosen anecdotes that present Sonya as Victim etc. It must be such hard work to twist yourself into pretzel shapes to deny and cover up for what you DID say. Er, where, exactly, is the “flavour” of threats of rape on Crinj blogs? Why am I even asking? It isn’t there of course, and empty accusations is how So Yo rolls.
I have higher expectations for women when it comes to having a basic amount of human empathy for other women, especially those who have been raped and are seriously messed up. women need to stop acting like assholes to other girls in order to prove to douchebags that they can hang. These attacks at the expense of Asian rape victims aren’t really jokes at all. You are pathetic.
Oh that’s good, then you should definitely put those expectations on Sonya for attacking rape survivors for asking for sensitivity all while using the guise of being a rape survivor herself.
Also, don’t forget when she told Louise up here that domestic violence survivors were stupid for staying in abusive relationships.
Where are those standards for her? Why does she get a free pass for hate and we don’t?
stay off my page
As long as my name is all over this page, I will be here defending myself. Take down my name and I will gladly go away and leave you alone, just as I was doing before you started this.
I will take down this page once you have removed all your bullying rants and my google searches no longer find your poisonous bullying. Do you agree?
The point is “Sonya” is not a real person. You want to look a bullying? Look at the contents of this page, which will be taken to the authorities. YOU are the one who has made multiple Facebook pages about me and other CRINJ members. YOU are the one who has continued this (bringing it up again today, as a matter of fact). YOU are the one who started all of this. CRINJ is not me. CRINJ is a group of people who are fed up with being dumped on and disrespected and belittled by RINJ and concerned about the damage they are doing. Shortly there will be real consequences for your actions, whether you want to admit that or not. You will most likely cut this down to that one sentence so it looks like a threat, but I am talking about calling the police. I am done with you. You are nothing but a two-faced, slanderous, lying, fake. Unlike you, I have PROOF.
This.
Could I have the links to these “multiple Facebook pages about me and other CRINJ members” Where are they. I googled that and they are not in Google. I certainly did no such thing and no person known to me did any such thing. I want to see what you are talking about.
Hi Sonya,
We’re putting together some blog posts with this information. I will admit that we don’t have proof connecting RINJ to these pages, and I have stated such in previous blog posts where I’ve personally made such claims.
I also looked through the RINJ Legal photo’s and did see the information about the socks. When we first started we were kind of too trusting of other people and we had a member create a bunch of fake profiles and like them on the page as well as comment on the posts in CRINJ. When we became aware of it, we immediately reprimanded the person and removed the offending posts. It was a group vote that we did not want to present ourselves in this immature fashion.
I can definitely apologize on behalf of the group to RINJ on behalf of that mistake. That person decided not to work with us anymore.
When someone professes a point of view or opinion we do try to ensure to people that they are speaking for themselves and not on behalf of CRINJ as a whole unless otherwise specified.
I’m sure you’ve experienced the same rogue members from time to time and have also reprimanded them accordingly. Thanks for your time!
Thanks, Trish.
Quite frankly we don`t know who is who. And yes, I am sure you must endure trolls and malfeasance just like anyone on the internet. Be advised you do not have permission to be writing articles; making attack pages; about or bullying any private, living persons, just because you disagree with an organization they belong to. By avoiding your path of cyber bullying and harassing individual persons you won`t get blamed for untoward things that happen to those persons you target. That can happen when you take it upon yourself to bully individuals online for months. You run the risk that some loony coming out of the woodwork unexpectedly, who with a reasonably expectation of your implied endorsement, will act out in a manner that is especially dangerous even going past your effort at destroying someone`s reputation and their life and inflicting physical harm. This is becoming an occurrence for which numerous alerts have been issued.
If you want to play a positive role within RINJ Campaign you are better working from the inside. Storming the Bastille walls (in all of history) has never worked. Just being attackers picking one by one on individuals and harassing them continually doesn’t ingratiate yourselves with anyone. We have numerous direct complaints. Your primary complaint has been that you were ostracized from the group and by now you can understand why.
People do this work because they believe it is the right thing to do with their spare time. It is not an obsession nor is it a pastime. It’s a volunteered chore that one does to enhance the community. But it isn’t worth the harm that you people are willing to cause private individuals, whoever you really are.
I suggest you take down all the destructive crap you have been publishing and join us and share your views in the normal and proper way and continue to do useful and fulfilling work. Rape hasn’t ended so the mission isn’t complete by a long shot. If you and any colleague(s) seriously wishes to do work of a positive nature then join us and share your views civilly and be a part of creating a forward-looking operating model for RINJ that is inclusive. Anyone who wants to do that may approach me by email at so.yoshiki@hotmail.com and I will arrange for any blocks to be removed and introductions that might be needed.
RINJ Campaign has become more diverse than in the past after flying many concepts up the flagpole. For one, there is a consensus that lobbying for legislative change in several countries and having the UN initiate a steering committee that could investigate and counsel member nations on what Statutes have been effective among member states and reach some international consensus so that in the matters of sexual assault, “Justice” is no longer a “joke”! There are a number of sophisticated methods to be arrived at and some steep hurdles to overcome in order to encourage MOST NATIONS that they must fully and diligently prosecute rapists. RINJ seeks higher penalties for rapists and has a methodology for promoting the careers of judges who adopt similar views.
RINJ believes that it must ACTIVELY and AGGRESSIVELY attack media that promotes rape jokes, misogyny, rape drugs, child exploitation (rape culture in all) and I do mean attack. Consider Marshall McLuhan’s warning about the media. He was right. To a large extent the media governs society. That is unacceptbale. Why? Because the media was not democratically elected to do that. In democracies we elect our public-policy makers, not “shock-jocks”. Media, no matter if it is traditional or ‘new media’, that provides content that advocates conduct that is criminal in nature and in many ways contrary to community values is destructive and most be opposed vigorously by the people. The publication or broadcast of messages by popular media implying that it’s OK to sexually assault a person is likely to lead to that crime happening. (The same is true of people who online cyber bully a person in the hope that they can drive many people to bring harm to that individual.) In short the way ahead has been under evaluation for some months and some exciting prospects are emerging. People, you can be on the outside of the walls behaving out of antipathy or you can join those on the inside and through cooperation, bring about a good result over time.
I understand about roguish conduct and among the people of RINJ the finger-bone of guilt might occasionally angle toward me, but that’s more about anger issues whilst under attack. Sorry, people. I can be a bitch certain times.
so.yoshiki@hotmail.com
I had a long response planned, but honestly, it just boggles my mind that you can’t even for a SECOND look in the mirror and analyze what you did wrong to piss so many people off. But no…we’re talking about RINJ here, instead you’re going to make fake accounts and parade as us while simultaneously decrying those actions.
Accept criticism, that’s all you had to do, was accept criticism. Instead you spread hate on people, don’t be surprised when people get pissed off and throw it back in your face.
The picture on your blog header is of Ku Hye Sun, a Korean Actress. I can’t speak for everyone else in CRINJ, but I’m pretty familiar with Asian popular culture, I know a lot of people who are always able to tell me what actress or porn star’s image you’ve poached as your own.
Ku Hye Sun is one of my idols, so also is Yoshiki Lisa; so also is hide; and Yoshiki sama. Who I like and who I don’t like is my business. Your personal attacks on me have only been that, personal attacks. Go away. Leave me alone.
Let me get this right…. you write this blog post, spam post the link to this blog post on the CRINJ blog, then tell us to leave you alone when we come here to defend ourselves?
I’m pretty sure if you stopped doing hateful shit like this people would stop hating on you. Just a thought.
You have many of us blocked on Facebook, which leads me to believe that you know damn well there’s more than three of us in CRINJ. I pointed out at least six in my post “The Truth About Crinj is Not What Katie Alsop Would Have You Believe.”
Never said you couldn’t like them, just don’t post a bunch of pictures and imply they’re your identity, which is what you were doing until we pointed it out. I just called you out on it, that’s all.
You don’t need to identify me. I am not your concern. I change my phone and moved address. Yes I block anyone with Facebook privacy settings whom I do not wish to contact me. You should respect that. You have many articles ridiculing me and encouraging people to attack me. They did. I finally after taking steps to protect myself published this blog to defend myself. I am one person but you are attacking many living people on the open internet by name and location and deliberately hurting people or getting them hurt. How much harm did you want to cause me and these other people. You seem to have a list of people whom you say have offended you by blocking you and wanting nothing to do with you. Who is on your list of people you want to see harmed?
The extent of what we’ve done is write blog posts. I’ve written blog posts over on my own blog thecreativeplutonium.wordpress.com as well as the crinj blog ringmakesuscrinj.wordpress.com
I’ve written criticisms on RINJ stances and post information on your swash of lies already. You can insist up and down to everyone that we’ve come after your family and personal life, but we haven’t. You insist this is all Meredith but she doesn’t even live in Canada, if there’s only three of us, which you can establish by our IP addresses live nowhere where you live. How are we doing this? Back up your allegations where you say we’ve written blog posts instructing people to attack you, personally. Don’t just tell people you’re doing it, back it up.
We’ve continued to insist that most of Sonya’s stories are made up lies. The account up there called crinj at rinj is not from our blog. I can log in and comment here to show you, but that account is not affiliated with us. No one here has ever posted under the name CRINJ unless it was one of the admins ON FACEBOOK.
I can be mentally ill or not. I can tell whatever truths, stories, lies, fabrications, embellishments, fables, folklore or whatever I want about myself if for no improper purpose. Not that I do, but you can either accept what I say about myself or not. I have repeatedly said I want nothing to do with you. For sure I do not need to be bullied by you or anyone else. If I am crazy then let me be crazy apart from you and your ‘gang’ of attackers. I asked you to have nothing to do with me and in every way possible I asked you to leave me alone. As you say I blocked you on Facebook and some six other people from contacting me on Facebook. You say you can’t accept that and that I am to be punished for that. Therefore after 6 months of harassment I am telling the world that I want nothing to do with you and that you must stop harassing me. I will be bullied no more. I am not afraid of you. Nothing is worse than what I have been prepared to do to myself through all your bullying. I don’t really care who posts what. How much worse can you say about me than what you have done already?
“I can lie if I want! But I totally don’t lie” That seems like a lot of back pedalling to me. We have proven before we don’t accept what you say and asked for proof. You posted a response to our blog with this link, so I came over here to defend my friend and call you out on your lies. Your attempts to make up my arguments are noted and dismissed.
It’s never been about you, specifically, it’s always been about the shit you say and the damage you’ve done. You’ve insisted we’re racist, though anyone who looks at our blog posts can see that we have not attacked you for your race, we’ve just professed you’re not who you say you are. We have continued to profess such.
You act like CRINJ is a big personal attack on you, sorry, it isn’t. It’s an attack on what you say and a question of the lies you’ve told. You’ve used your cambodian sex slave story as an attempt to shield yourself from criticism while people call you out on your hate.
I just fail to see how MJK is this big mastermind you play her out to be. I also wonder why you haven’t issued these attacks against myself, Louise, Gaz, Nat, Shaun and others. What is it about Meredith specifically that makes you spout out these vitriol and lies against her? Inquiring minds want to know.
Yeah, except you haven’t been using your made up stories for improper purposes. You’ve used these stories to attack and shame survivors. You’ve also pretty much admitted to telling lies about Meredith.
Hey if you want us to stop commenting here in defense of Meredith, take down this post of lies. You’ve basically just admitted that you wrote a bunch of lies about Meredith. No one from CRINJ is bullying you, we’re calling you a liar.
If you’re being bullied and stalked by someone, go to the authorities and file a report immediately, but don’t impede their investigation by posting more lies about someone who doesn’t deserve your harassment.
Leave Meredith alone, and take these lies down.
Everything I have said in my blog here is true. Nothing I write is a lie. Nothing.
Next I am going to publish the dialogues. Guess what. I have control of the “Sue” account that Meredith used. That includes all of its history. I also have somewhere all the messages I got from that guy plus all the emails and conversation threads I got from her. I have the convos of six other people with her as well. Also Lori has made a complaint and submitted all her convo threads. I will likely do this tomorrow as it is late, now.
These are not lies and I take nothing down until my name disappears from the search engine as I refer to it in my blog.
You think it is OK for you publish a blog but not me in response? You are wrong. I finally have responded. Go away and fix the harm you have done and don’t come back until you have undone your bullying.
If by “That guy” you mean Max Pierre, he is not affiliated with CRINJ but has promoted us a few times. He has said this himself multiple times. So any attacks by him are not on behalf of CRINJ, and we will not condone them.
However we look forward to the proof you have of us harassing you.
Lying again, Sonya. Before you attacked domestic violence survivors on my page, we were FB friends. I saw one of your stolen model pics, and wrote to compliment YOUR good looks. You warmly thanked me.
Theawinde, are you saying that she did not listen to your criticisms? therefore you are justified in what appears to be a despicable series of bullying attacks on a wide range of living, ordinary people? what’s next for these people you feel you have the right to bring harm to?
I’m going to take it that you’re commenting in good faith.
I haven’t bullied Sonya, none of CRINJ have. What we have done is call her a liar and backed it up with research and facts that we dug up. That is the extent of what we’ve done. This is classic RINJ, make up a bunch of baseless accusations with no proof to back it up. Sonya’s said a lot of problematic things to people, for example she told domestic violence survivors they were stupid for staying with their significant others.
People have attacked what Sonya has SAID, sure. I won’ t deny that, but that’s a far stretch from attacking her personally or stalking her like she’s claiming. We’re not doing that, if someone is doing that to her, then she can go to the authorities and press charges on those people, but it’s definitely not me.
Sonya’s been insisting I was harassing her since I wrote a blog post criticising their awful response to something back in October 2011. When all I’ve done is written a lot of blog posts with criticisms of RINJ.
We have a blog, you can read it at rinjmakesuscrinj.wordpress.com and come to your own conclusions.
You are a victim of what is called Cyberbullying in our city and likely the same all over the world. It’s important that people not play down the potential seriousness or impact of bullying if it occurs through electronic means because it can have victims like Sonya feeling intimidated, fearful and distressed (just the way she sounds).
I don’t know you have done the right thing by challenging your attackers but I did the search you suggested and the attacks against you are real and very bizarre. You are campaigning against rape and these people are campaigning against you and your campaigning. Are they rapists? Be very, very careful.
I have never wanted to find you. I want you to disappear.
You have bullied me for too long. I am not going to disappear. Six months you have attacked me all over the place. I just googled my name (I googled: “so Yoshiki CRINJ”) and you have 7 articles using my name attacking me personally and asking other people to do the same. I am sick of it and I am sick of you.
No one would believe you if your tongue came notarized. No one from CRINJ has threatened you or harassed you. You are harassing me by creating this page and then posting links to it all over our site begging for attention. You are obviously preoccupied with me. Find a hobby or get some psychiatric help.
You do not have my permission to spam my blog with links so I deleted your links. Also you should note that you do not have permission to use my name anywhere and yet you do that all over the internet with your slanderous blogs about me saying I was raped in Cambodia and so on. You know nothing about me. Since you insist on writing horrible stories about me all over the internet these past 6 months, I am now going to retaliate and make reference to what I have learned about you. Let me know any time you remove every reference to me and every slander you have done against me. I have a story per day for the next 5 weeks. I can’t afford to sue you because I changed my home and my phone but since I lost my job I can do my sloppy writing all over the internet about you and my experiences with you and the people who have come to me making complaints about you and saying that they read some horrible stuff you wrote about me; they too say they have a bone to pick with you for terrible grievances about your actions. So you bullied many people now. You can’t find me this time and I am fighting back. I have defended myself. People will see many more things you have done now.
You deserve to be the subject of a good old fashion human hunt. We are in search of a challenge worthy of our skills as hunters. Scrawny and scared like a gazelle you will make good prey. Take down this blog you bag of shit.
fuck off
Like I said earlier from what I’ve seen, “fuck off” is your standard response to anybody who questions RINJ. You and your sister deserved to be sold into slavery.
This person does not speak for CRINJ, it is a deliberate attempt to defame us. We do not condone this message.
Ditto Theawinde – totally not endorsed by Crinj. But I’ll bet my kidneys that this response has been invented by Ms “Yoshiki” so she can baw about Crinj “persecution.” This happened to me from my own blog. As soon as I took So Nya to task for blaiming domestic violence victims, two anti-Asian statements appeared. This tactic – on a blog that hardly ever gets looked at – was transparently obvious and I was not silly enough to publish them.
It’s doubtful my comments will appear but there you go.
Conveniently, whenever some of our criticism or something we’ve acted on gets any headway with people. A rape page or something mysteriously pops up in an attempt to discredit us. CRINJ has one facebook page, one twitter, one e-mail, and one blog. Anyone who claims otherwise is lying. CRINJ users on wordpress have their own IDs that they log in with. No one uses the rinjmakesuscrinj wordpress ID, but we can log in to proove this inaccuracy. We do not condone this message.
In modern day Japan, while many things have changed, honor and loyalty remain fixed within the Japanese character. Key to honor is the concept of “saving face”—the Japanese will go to great lengths to avoid embarrassment. The loss of face is not easily forgotten nor is it easily forgiven. In America, you win by cutting someone else. In Japan, if you do something that makes someone look bad (even inadvertently), they may smile and seem ok on the surface. However, behind that smile may be someone that now feels the need to become a roadblock to progress in order to save face—either ending things outright. On the other hand, by finding a creative solution to problems or concerns, you will have an advocate for life.
….What?
The person posting under this name is using our intellectual property and I request you stop immediately.
“You” truly are insane.
Oh So Yoshiki, it is hilarious that you call somebody a false rape claimant when you lied your head off about your own “story” – stolen from Cambodian sex slavery victims. I have read it on the RINJ site. YOU are a liar, and YOU have bullied and harassed people. From what I’ve seen, “fuck off” is your standard response to anybody who questions RINJ. It sounds like you and Ruffian deserve eachother, thoroughly. Nobody believes a word you say.
There is no such post by anyone on the RINJ site nor was there ever or you would have a link. The article is called “My Story” and it is my story too. And just cuz a woman has slanted eyes and olive skin doesn’t mean she is me
We did provide a link to it, on our blog.
Sonya, you are SUCH A LIAR, and you are not even embarrassed to be one! You are amazing! You DID say you were raped; we have evidence of the whole sorry Cambodia thing. You also told me on my blog that being asked not to slag domestic violence suriviors off was worse than being raped in Cambodia. Of course I should have twigged then that it could not possibly have happened because you could never cheapen real survivors by saying something like that.
“Fuck off” – classy, aren’t you?
Knock off the whole race-card thing too, So Yo. You didn’t mind your mate Micheal using the term “N*gger” to describe the men who (did not) beat you up at McDonalds.
“White chocolate” or “reds” did not quite fit. You are back in the 50′s on street language.
