  • I dunno, the media and its relationship to crime is well documented. Many people accept that old people that panic about inner city crime despite it being at a record low since the 1970s are victims of this phenomenon. Why is it difficult to believe that young women who consume a lot of true crime content aren’t also effected by this phenomenon in some way. I have studied psychology and I did do a journalism course which, admittedly, I dropped out of. I just don’t like how fear based society has become. People are just too quick to assume the absolute worst and I kinda view this bear question as a reflection on that.


  • Honestly, no matter what side of the debate you are on its still dystopian to think that women would actually think to go to a bear over a random man when faced with the choice.

    I am being introspective about this though. We created a culture of fear. A lot of it is through the consequences of rape culture and I think a large part is through an unhealthy about of true crime that’s being made. Constantly blasting worse case scenarios into people’s heads. I dunno, I just despise how we all just accepted not to trust one another and it seems like we’ve all just accepted that this to way to be about it. I just see it as a example of the alienation being pushed by capitalism.

    It’s makes me a little mad tbh. Being perfectly honest it should make everyone mad. Like tbh I still think going with a random guy is the correct answer to this but we all should come together, look at this whole situation and realise the dystopian implications of this.





  • Right. I have gotten some complaints about this from the report feature so I’ll just say a couple of things.

    Firstly, everyone. If you think OP is being a little silly then I urge to perhaps try telling them nicely without calling them an idiot. We won’t to promote an atompsphere where people are encouraged to talk about their problems without being ridiculed. This isn’t the first time something like this happened.

    Secondly, OP. You also need to engage more constructively with these people as well. The way you are getting defensive and immediately bringing up your education does not help you. Also you post complaining about here has been removed. We don’t really want this instance to be a place where people complain about other parts of lemmy. That just leads to drama down the road.
