Casual reminder that Jamie Bennington (Chester's oldest son) is insane, believes that Chester was murdered and kept tagging the guys in posts about it, Talinda (Chester's widow) had to get a restraining order against him and Mike filed for one because he constantly accuses them of having an affair, deep into Qanon shit. He's insane and anything he says about Emily is null and void because of it

Jaime Bennington has not been well mentally for a very long time. He believes that Chester was murdered and that Mike was having an affair with Talinda. Both her and Mike had do get restraining orders against him because he would not stop harassing them. The rest of his family have also distanced themselves and hes super into qanon stuff. Nothing he says can be trusted. Talinda herself supports Emily and I trust her and the rest of the band way more than him.

Now for my two cents on the drama that ensued among the Linkin Park Community.

Content Warning: Discussions of sexual assault, Scientology, and suicide

Disclaimer: I do not condone nor encourage the harassment of the individuals or anyone with their own opinion. Additionally, this statement is intended to be read with an open mind and I may be wrong at such details. Any corrections with hard evidence is appreciated. Updates to the situation will be made via reblogs.

Like many LP fans, I was happy that there was a new Linkin Park album in the works and was amazed by Emily Armstrong's vocals in the latest track. However, this news came with some awful drama.

Let's discuss the basics. From Zero will be the first Linkin Park album with newly recorded material in seven years following No More Light, the last album to be recorded prior to Chester Bennington's suicide. To receive news about a truly new album and a new vocalist is enough to excite the LP fandom.

The new vocalist for Linkin Park is Emily Armstrong from Dead Sara. When The Emptiness Machine dropped as the newest single, the controversies of Armstrong's past reared its ugly head and caused a divide in the fandom. Namely, Armstrong was outed as a Scientologist and a supporter of Danny Masterson. Cue many fans being upset, especially detractors of the new direction of Linkin Park going forward.

Armstrong hasn't discussed her views since 2013 and she has recently posted a statement on her involvement with Danny Masterson during the court hearings he was going through. She has stated that she has no longer supported Masterson following him being found guilty of rape and made an Instagram Story of her clearing the air. The hearing she attended to was in 2020. The statement below can be interpreted has her apology for this.

As for her past as a Scientologist, she's a Second Generation Scientologist (meaning she had no say in her being part of the Church of Scientology whatsoever, let alone a religion of people who hate anything negative statements about them) and was called out by one of Masterson's victims. Again, Armstrong hasn't said anything about it since 2013. Scientologists can leave their faith, but it is difficult to do so and there are several restrictions placed by the Church. (Again, they HATE criticism and negative publicity of any kind)

Scientologists tend to ignore the topic of mental health. Many fans were pissed at such a damning revelation and believed that Chester would be upset over this.

Despite this, LP gave their support and Chester's wife, Talinda showed her support in Armstrong being the new vocalist.

As for the Masterson case, many of Masterson's former friends would logically want to see him as a good person, but have cut ties with him following his conviction (Armstrong herself stated that herself. I believe that she flubbed a spot check when her Insta reveals she stills follow Masterson, but dealing with the fallout of a friend being a monster comes with its own baggage). While some have said Armstrong was involved with a confrontation with a victim, there isn't any evidence to prove this.

The instance of Scientology requires a more realistic thought. The Church of Scientology has no problems making the lives of vocal ex-members a living hell with legal battles and frequent harassment. While we can assume Emily Armstrong herself is an ex-member, she can't be vocal about it without a massive shitstorm ensuing, especially if she's part of a band that has several songs dealing with mental health, something that Scientologists actively ignore. Many ex-members have resorted to sneaking out of the Church or even Scientology as a whole in the trunk of a car. Even if Armstrong seems to be in a place to discuss her departure, she still won't be able to without the ire of her former faith. If you analyze the lyrics of The Emptiness Machine, they deal with leaving a toxic enviroment or a cult-like place. In Armstrong's case, it can be interpreted has her stating that she has left the Church without attracting a potential shitstorm, with the lyrics feeling appropriate for leaving such a place.

All in all, this is not how the new era of LP was supposed to go down, but the use of context and media literacy is how we can understand this situation going forward.

With regards to Jamie Bennington (Chester's son) somethings need to be clarified before you give him attention.

With regards to Jamie Bennington (Chester's son), somethings need to be clarified before you give him attention. He has been mentally spiraling for 2 years+ now. And I'm not talking about grieving and related spiraling. But just downright conspiracy spiraling. To the point that he now thinks his dad didn't die by suicide. You know, the rumors started by conservatives about Chris Cornell and Chester Bennington.For clarification, by his own admission, he hadn't been in contact with Chester and Talinda (Chester's wife) the year Chester passed away and it took numerous calls from Talinda to finally get a hold of him to let him know about Chester's death. This is probably there somewhere in the large stockpile of stories that Jamie has on his IG account.He alienated every single individual who was close to Chester and treated Chester like family from every member in LP, Talinda, Anna Shinoda (who Jamie was very close to), members of Julien K etc.. He's even alienated from his step siblings (Chester's other children) and his own mother.Here's his mom talking about this last yearhttps://preview.redd.it/34eye9v79wnd1.png?width=619&format=png&auto=webp&s=b0debe41a5603d908a125de004df6666a59cab90He harassed Ryan Shuck from Julien K, someone who was very close with Chester and did the "Dead By Sunrise" side project with Chester, by constantly sending him 20-30 voice notes and then demanding a response. Ryan eventually felt so threatened by the harassment that he stated that anymore harassment will lead to legal cases filed against Jamie.Important to note - Chester's widow, Talinda, also has a restraining order against him because of his violent tendencies. There are rumors that Chester's ex-wife and son also have a restraining order against Jamie but I cannot confirm that. But the above is a TINY sliver of the harassment Jamie has directed to ONE individual that was close to Chester. He has consistently been tagging Mike Shinoda and LP band members on the most random stories, circling random articles that had nothing to do with LP all with the insinuation that everything is a giant conspiracy. I'm not even making any of these up. Just go to his IG page and you'll have many posts that he posted recently of just articles and comments that he circles. His stories are just all that. If ya'll want to go on the deep end of spiraling, watch Jamie's videos.But he craves attention and started posting more and more with every single new viewer he got on his stories. And now he's got the ultimate attention with subs like this and news article picking his stories up and running with it.A lot of the core LP fandom were well aware of him and ignored him consciously because giving him attention was feeding his addiction for attention. If you feel bad for him and want to help him, stop spreading his stories around and feeding him the attention he was craving. If anything, push him to go get professional help. Something multiple people have already asked of him. Submitted September 09, 2024 at 08:39PM by 101nemesis101 https://ift.tt/OJ7x31W via /r/Music

Trầm cảm trông sẽ ra sao? Trả lời bởi Shenal Samarawickrama. Đây là Chester Bennington, chỉ vài ngày trước khi anh ấy chọn cách treo cổ tự tử. Trông có vẻ như không có dấu hiệu gì của sự u uất hay là khóc than để mưu cầu sự giúp đỡ trong tấm ảnh này cả. Nhưng tận sâu bên trong, Chester đã rất đau đớn. Bức ảnh này được chia sẻ bởi người vợ của anh ấy, Talinda Bennington, cùng với dòng chú thích, “Đây là ngày ngay trước khi chồng tôi rời bỏ cuộc đời. Những suy nghĩ quẩn quanh về sự tự sát đã ở đó, nhưng bạn sẽ chẳng bao giờ biết.” Sau đó, Talinda đã chia sẻ một video khoảng 36 tiếng trước khi Chester tự sát, trong video đó, Chester đã ăn jelly beans, cười nói cùng với con trai mình. Nhưng nhìn mà xem, vẫn chẳng thấy một chút “trầm cảm” nào ở anh ấy cả. Một người mắc trầm cảm có thể sẽ trông thật u uất và buồn bã, nhưng một người trầm cảm cũng có thể trông rất vui vẻ, và nở nụ cười để giấu những nỗi đau vào bên trong mình khỏi thế giới này. Tuy nhiên, có một điều mà chúng ta học được từ Chester, rằng “Trầm cảm không mang một gương mặt nào hết.” https://www.instagram.com/p/CpOmcWOv8kA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Insonnia

Apro gli occhi e guardo l’orario, sono le 3 è decisamente troppo presto per svegliarmi ma, a quanto pare il mio corpo non concorda con me. Mi giro e guardo la meraviglia che ho accanto. Con attenzione senza svegliarla passo una mano in mezzo ai suoi capelli, dannazione è così bella starei ore a guardarla. Ogni singolo momento ringrazio che Talinda sia mia moglie. Mi ha aiutato a uscire da un incubo che vivevo tutti i giorni, grazie a lei e ai ragazzi son uscito dal mondo dell’alcol e delle droghe e non ho nessuna intenzione di tornarci. Adesso ho uno scopo nella vita, occuparmi della mia famiglia. Il solo problema che mi tormenta, è il pensiero fisso che quel mostro chiamato depressione ostacoli nuovamente la mia vita. Non è da prendere sotto gamba una cosa del genere, bisogna imparare a leggere dentro alle persone e non vedere l’aspetto fisico, dietro a un sorriso si può nascondere tanto dolore. Mi sporgo dal letto per prendere il cellulare sul comodino senza far alcun rumore, tolgo ogni suono non voglio di certo svegliarla. Senza muovermi troppo gli scatto qualche foto, queste andranno nella mia galleria privata. Posso dire che è il mio piccolo tesoro. Le riguardo e mi ritengo soddisfatto, blocco il telefono e lo poggio sul comodino con lo schermo rivolto verso il basso, nel caso arrivi qualche notifica almeno non vedo l’accendersi dello schermo. Mi sistemo il cuscino e mi stendo di nuovo con l’intenzione di tornare a dormire, chiudo gli occhi ma niente il sonno ha abbandonato questo corpo, dannazione è presto come lo passo il tempo senza rischiare di svegliarla? Qualcosa devo pur fare, la notte è ancora lunga e io so bene che non dormirò. Prendo il telecomando e accendo la tv abbassando subito il volume. Inizio a fare zapping sbuffando e sospirando non trovando niente che attiri la mia attenzione. Decido comunque di lasciarla accesa su un canale indefinito, sinceramente non ho neanche notato cosa sta passando. Prendo nuovamente il telefono, recupero anche gli occhiali ed inizio a perdere tempo. Dopo non so quanto guardo l’orario spalancando gli occhi quando vedo che sono le 6 di mattina, è proprio vero che il telefono ti cattura. Lo poggio nuovamente e mi alzo, ho deciso di preparare la colazione per tutti, fra un ora inizieranno a svegliarsi tutti, gli impegni quotidiani chiamano. Mi dirigo in bagno dopo aver recuperato i vestiti, mi cambio dopo essermi lavato il viso. Letteralmente in punta di piedi esco da camera andando diretto in cucina, per fortuna è più distante rispetto alle camere. Inizio a sistemare il tavolo per la colazione e via ai fornelli, oggi frittelle di mele per tutti, almeno avranno una bella carica. Le metto nei piatti nel momento preciso in cui sento una porta dopo l’altra aprirsi, in pochi istanti la cucina viene invasa dalla tribù Bennington, saluto i bambini uno ad uno e li accompagno al proprio posto. Ma il mio viso si illumina quando vedo Tali arrivare in cucina, la vado a stringere e baciare. Appena si è sistemata le porto il caffè e le sue frittelle, io non vado subito a sedere, tiro fuori il telefono e faccio una foto alla mia famiglia. Questo è il mio paradiso, prendo la tazza e il mio piatto andando a sedermi. Vorrei che questo momento durasse per sempre...

I wanted to give my Chester Bennington pins a special post to express the meaning behind them. As you guys know, I’ve gotten in the habit of buying enamel pins lately. I’m also a huge Linkin Park fan & follow all of the Linkin Park accounts. Well, my iPhone noticed all of these things & recommended me this pin on Linkin Park’s webstore. I went to the page & read that the proceeds for this pin were going to “320 Changes Direction”. I googled what that was & found out 320 Changes Direction is an organization co-founded by Chester’s wife Talinda Bennington. The organization works towards helping those who battle issues with mental health & addiction. I found this out & instantly purchased two pins. As most of you know, suicide, depression, & mental illness advocacy is something that means a lot to me & hits home hard. I’ve been diagnosed with clinical depression, severe anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder, & borderline personality disorder. I am currently 12 years self harm free & I have also survived a sad total of 3 suicide plans (my most recent plans were actually just this past February).. thankfully, I’ve never gotten far enough in my plans to fully attempt. As a whole, mental health is something that hits home more than anything else to me & I am so thankful for Linkin Park & Talinda Bennington for stepping up & doing as much as they can. I am proud to now have this pin on my jacket - I’ll wear it with pride!
