December 2021 marks the 1 year anniversary of 28-year-old Muscovite Valentina Grigoryeva killed by her boyfriend on livestream. RIP Valentina.

Big Tech (YouTube, Google, Facebook etc.) routinely ignores video and disturbing images of violence against women and children: r@pe, revenge p0rn, p0rn etc. While Facebook, Twitter and Google executives have been called before the U.S. Senate on Section 230 hearings regarding their moderation policies, not much has been done to protect women and children on Big Tech platforms. Big Tech takes millions in American tax subsidies every year and its attitude towards vulnerable people remains one of hatred or at best, apathy.

One YouTube "trashstream" channel run by Russian Stansilav Reshetnikov contained videos of Stas pepper spraying his girlfriend Valentina in exchange for monetary requests / donations. "Stas Reeflay" would call Valentina a prostitute, smelly, yet his channel remained up and monetized. In early December 2020, one anonymous donor sent Stas $1000 USD to strip Valentina down, attack her and throw her outside, locking the door behind him. Stas accepted.

One of Valentina's female friends was also in Stas' apartment at the time. She personally watched as Stas ripped off Valentina's clothes, stripping her to her underwear. Valentina was then physically attacked by Stas to the point that Valentina grabbed a knife from the kitchen to defend herself. Stas grabbed Valentina, threw her onto the freezing cold balcony outside in Moscow's winter weather, and locked her there. Valentina was in the early stages of pregnancy (this has been both confirmed and denied). For two hours Valentina hammered on the door and asked to be let inside. Valentina's female friend did not assist her and left the apartment. After two hours, Stas opened the door and dragged Valentina's lifeless body inside. In the livestream, Valentina's body is visibly limp and pale. Stas cooed to her, calling her "my bunny", and asking her to wake up. Despite this, Stas beat her earlier that day. Multiple bruises on her head and body were found. A viewer (the livestream was still ongoing, apparently not violating any YouTube rules) called emergency services.

Valentina froze to death in the subzero temperatures. She also sustained blunt force trauma to her head and body. Stas is still awaiting sentencing in Russia, but his mother and sisters have attended trial and asserted he could not be violent to anyone (EYEROLL). YouTube, to my knowledge, never banned the anonymous donor who encouraged violence, nor made a statement on its policies after this multi-hour livestream.

To anyone reading this from outside the FDS platform --- this woman supported her boyfriend's channel with her own pain. She was young, beautiful and supportive. A man she trusted, relied on and loved destroyed her for money from a stranger. What more could she have done? What kind of sacrifices do you expect from women, when there are so many stories like Valentina's? Someone who calls themselves a man and then prioritizes money from a stranger over their own girlfriend is no man.
