R541 How exactly is Keith exploiting and ruining the lives of young boys? Is he forcing them into something they don't want to do? Is he kidnapping them and making them his personal slaves, to feed his every sexual need and then tossing them aside once they've become addicted to drugs and other crazy shit? None of the above. These guys are joining Helix because they want to, not because anyone is making them do it. And they are all free to leave at any time (as we've seen in the past few months).

I hated this bullshit argument when it came to Brent Corrigan during the whole Bryan murder/trial crap. Brent knew exactly what he was doing when he joined Cobra at 17. Did Bryan take advantage of him? Yes. But even after leaving Cobra, even after all this time, Brent has yet to do anything except porn. It's what he loves to do, what he craves (the attention and fawning of fans certainly feeds his ego), and what he wants to do. If he had been taken in by an older guy who abused him sexually and fed him lies day after day, would he have embraced the industry once he was free to do what he wanted? I would think Brent would have run as far away from the industry as he possibly could. He did the exact opposite, to a smattering of success.

Same goes with Joey and Angel and Julian and Blake... they are either joining OnlyFans or Flirt4Free to grab as much cash as they can from us dumb unsuspecting sheep, who want a piece of them, in any way we can get. They are still on social media, they STILL use their Helix porn names, and they have never once tweeted or posted about how horrible life was inside the Helix bubble. Yeah, Cameron wrote "My Truth", but let's be honest - had he really wanted out, he wouldn't have moved to Vegas with them. And had he not been fired by Keith, he would still be working at Helix.

Is there drug use at Helix? I think we can all agree that yes, there is. Did Keith turn a blind eye to what Deniz and who knows who else were doing to his models? Again, that would be a yes. Stupid decisions most certainly. But an abusive twink molester who does what he wants when he wants to, just because he's the boss/owner? Nope, that doesn't happen.

George Duroy slept with a copious amount of Bel Ami boys. Jake Jaxson will dip his toe in the Cockyboys pool from time to time. Bryan Kocis was known to fuck his models. The guy who runs Active Duty is notorious for how poorly he treats his models, and how often he fucks around with them. Bryan from Chaosmen has even filmed himself fucking models. Brian from BoyCrush has done the same thing. Hell, even Sean Cody and Corbin Fisher have been known to fuck around with their models. Just ask Dawson from CF and Zach from SC.

Keith Miller is the exception. His only dalliance with models is for the Spank This scenes, which is a fetish he has been involved in for years, even before he started Helix. But he doesn't fuck his models. He treats them very well (his scene rates are one of the highest in the industry, they are offered full-time jobs if they want), and in return, he expects loyalty, as any employer would. Again, he has made some very stupid decisions, and has turned a blind eye to shit that is going on right in front of him. I like that he is finally seeing the light and making the changes he needed to make, starting with firing Deniz. Is he perfect? Far from it. Do more changes need to be made to right the Helix ship? Yes.

They'll survive, as most companies do. Personally I hope Keith keeps his eyes open and doesn't allow the shit that has happened to repeat itself. Hiring someone from outside the industry to manage the day-to-day would be a step in the right direction. Don't keep putting band-aids on the wounds. Suture them up and let them heal.

Time will tell.
