It seems kind of unlikely to be that since Wataru has been posting pictures with his ass out and his shibari performance videos on his own social media for years and he doesn’t seem to get banned for it.

There was also Yoshiatsu’s dog play mask. You never know by what or when the algorithm is triggered.

> As we look ahead, we wish for everyone to take a moment to reflect on the importance of approaching difficult situations with patience, empathy, responsibility, and kindness. In today’s online world, verified information, personal experiences, speculation, and incomplete or possibly fabricated material can easily become intertwined, making it all the more important to think critically before reaching conclusions.
> 
> We hope our community will continue to choose responsibility, respect, and kindness, remembering that the conversations we create and engage in online have lasting consequences for the lives of many people, and that choosing respect and compassion will always build a stronger community than anger ever could.

This is wonderfully put across. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a statement this sensitively-worded. I fully respect how carefully they’ve thought through this and the message they want to bring across despite such this possibly being one of the messiest things they’ve had to handle. I am in deep respect that they also chose to hold gratitude for activities past.

Most statements are quick to just go like “yep we ditched the dude”. In an ideal world I hope very much we can embody this same message of empathy and compassion, but I know it’s not always the easiest thing for everyone.

But yes, a very decently put together statement in a short time.

I am right now concerned about the members whose projects have been affected, and I hope very much they will still be able to carry on with their craft.

I think that’s the best take here.

For this particular messy situation, there were _many_ things that everyone involved could have done better. Everyone. Yoshiatsu, Aya, Emma, and the whole fanbase.

She should talk about it with her therapist. Which she should have after all this. Seriously, being exposed on the internet is not something to just deal with privately.

And she especially shouldn’t dump anything about this situation on another friend, maybe even younger than her, but even an experienced adult probably barely would know how to handle that. But clearly not a minor (and then being of the opinion being told that she’s insensitive where not that minor’s right).

_We are truly sorry for this sudden announcement._

_DRUGS has decided to disband._

_The reasons for the disbandment are as stated in the official announcement. We sincerely apologize to all our fans and those involved for the great worry and inconvenience we have caused._

_Honestly, I myself am still struggling to process this sudden turn of events and am feeling confused._

_It’s been a little over a year since we announced NEW ORDER. Although it was a short period, I am filled with gratitude to everyone who walked alongside us, believed in us, and supported us during that time. Every view and every word you gave me is a precious treasure to me._

_I am truly sorry that we have ended things in this way and that we have caused you sadness._

_However, I have no intention of stopping my musical activities. I know it won’t be easy, but I want to explore new activities starting from a blank slate._

_And I hope to continue activities that will meet your expectations more than ever before._

_I will not let any of the support and disappointment I received from everyone go to waste. I will use this experience as fuel to continue facing music in my own way and moving forward._

_I would be happy if you would continue to support me._

_Thank you so much._

_And I look forward to your continued support._

_Tsuzuku_
