Sophia & Noelle answer the 'ruin their future' line in a #cornell7 short

The besties' comment section became a long, serious conversation about victim-blaming, and many viewers used it to tell their own stories.

Maybe if we ruined their future they wouldn’t be in charge… 👀 #besties #bestiesforever #cornell7

"Maybe if we ruined their future they wouldn’t be in charge… 👀" is a short from Sophia & Noelle, the duo whose channel describes them as besties and actors and promises big-sister advice. Its hashtags tie it to the Cornell 7 case. Its title turns around a line often heard when someone reports a sexual assault: that speaking up would ruin the accused's future.

It is a change of register for the channel. The shorts around it brought a filter challenge, a gentle note to viewers who want to see the pair as a couple, and an early start on Halloween costumes. The new short's first day, about 700,000 views, was in line with what the channel's shorts usually draw.

The comment section was another matter. Comments arrived roughly nine times faster than on a usual first day, and they read less like replies to a sketch than like a long conversation.

Much of that conversation circles the same few arguments. Viewers take on the "his future" line itself and the idea that clothing invites an attack. They also take on "not all men," which many answer by saying it is enough men to make them afraid. A good number of commenters, women and men alike, tell what happened to them and how the people around them responded afterward, and others reply to support them.
