It feels surreal to be writing this right now but here we go. I can’t begin to encapsulate just how much of an impact you’ve had on my life. Growing up you and the boys were my safe place, away from judgment, fear and anxiety. You lead me through some of the most lonely and confusing parts of my childhood. As I got older and the world was put into lockdown you became my rock. Things had started to get bad for me during my teenage years and you genuinely saved my life, on multiple occasions. I remember one night being so close to making a decision I couldn’t take back but I got a notification on my phone saying you were live on instagram. This sounds like a silly thing but I saw it as a sign that maybe I should keep going. You were one of the only things that were positive in my life and you’re the reason I’m breathing. (Not to be dramatic or anything haha) you were so open about your struggles which was incredibly inspiring to me, we battled simular demons so I never felt alone. Your music is incredible l, you have such a talent that I believe was so under appreciated. I could see the passion you had for music and the love you and for fans was a shining light for so many. We love you Liam, you have helped more people than you know. I’m so sorry this is the end of your story here on earth but you will continue to live with us and I hope you’re happy and at peace somewhere out there.
the way i’m getting liam hate videos on my fyp that were posted on tiktok BEFORE he passed, and when you check their profile, they’re posting liam/1D tributes now💀 i truly hope you all choke actually 🫶🏻
I have a lot to say but for now all I’ll say is that Liam was the world’s punching bag for 14 years, and for most of that time, he handled it, at least outwardly, with more grace and composure than most anyone could. The fact that people couldn’t see that he was being eaten alive—figuratively, literally, by something (or many things)—has made me angry for years. He wasn’t well. It was so obvious. I wish people could have had compassion for him.
I hate that people talk about him as an abuser, a horrible person.
I hate it because this judgement comes from alleged accusations from an alleged victim. Still the actions he will never take accountability for or make amends for will stick to him forever now.
There are actually convicted felons who got more respect than him ever did in his life.
Liam was a young boy, bullied in school.
He was a teenager bullied globally.
He then was a depressed young man with addiction and alcoholism disorders who was bullied to death.
And we have to sit here, his fans, his family, his friends, reading shit like “he got hate for a valid reason”.
No? the fuck he did?
No one deserves hate. No one deserves that amount of hate. The type of hate that drains the light and life out of a young man.
This hate killed Liam. Your “valid” hate.
The hate that put a veil of darkness upon his world, blinded him from seeing the love and kindness in his life to the point it wasn’t worth living anymore.
No one deserves that hate, you absolute morons. No one, not even actual convicted criminals.
They deserve a chance to understand how deeply wrong their actions were and start over with apologies and new premises for the better.
