Better lay off the Crack bruh... Just cause governments no longer log most stats so they can lie about crime... doesnt mean its not happening... But i guess the Ukrainian woman that just got new ventilation holes added to her neck, on mass transit by a Dark Wizard.. never happens anymore.
Have you ever heard of the shark attack phenomenon?
Spot on point. But I've worked in broadcast news and I don't see a solution. Do you?Have you ever heard of the shark attack phenomenon?
Every summer, people end up afraid to swim in the ocean because there are sharks. They are afraid because they see in the media that there are attacks. The issue is, you are far more likely to be killed in a car accident heading to the beach than by a shark at the beach. Yet most people don't fear the car, they fear the shark. The reason this happens is while pretty much every shark attack is reported in the media, only really big car accidents are reported. This leads people to believe shark attacks are a much bigger problem than they are. The opposite also happens, in that people don't think car accidents are a huge problem when they are. Car accidents are getting more frequent and deadlier.
Since the media runs on views, they run more violent content since it gets the views. You probably won't stay up and watch the 11:00 pm news if it was about dogs needing to be adopted, but a story about a guy torturing a dog, that gets aired because that makes people angry enough to stay up and watch. In reality, violent crime is down massively, but the reporting on it is up massively. This leads to increased fear, which in turn causes moral panic. Moral panic always results in reductions in freedom.
Politicians on all sides love a moral panic. They can enact rules to fix something that isn't broken and look like heroes. They love to take one instance of a thing and apply it as if it was the whole truth. Don't fall for that.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
I take it reading all the post before commenting isnt your strong point. Its been known for some time now that the stats/crimes only get documented/prosecuted if they want that stat to go up. Just like the fact that inflation is only 2-3 % over the past 5 years even though most things are up 30-50% now. How many crimes were people actually arrested for during the mostly peaceful fiery protests..(basically Zero) certainly makes those stats look good dont it.. but keep telling yourself that you are sooo... smart cause you looked up some stat on s gov site..
Who still watches main stream Media ? Its not hard to see Crime is much worse than it use to be, and its easy to see that judges and prosecutors are not going after criminals anymore (unless its approved by their party)...Have you ever heard of the shark attack phenomenon?

Don't Watch.
I was a sub on discord, they removed your account and slapped me with a two year very restricted label. I checked MEE6 and it shows I no longer subscribe to you. Please sort this out and let us know how to follow you. You're too good to loose.
Rape and sexual assault have always been under reported. The increase in report is not an increase in instances but rather that police services are now mandated to file a report for every single instance which they just did not do in the past.
- lies, damned lies and statistics.(c) some unknown author from late 19th century US. I will give you a clue - statistics wont tell you anything without full analysis of other factors. For example: if you decriminalize use of drugs, criminal statistics will show a drop in drug related crime. A great success in the never ending battle against drug abuse. Just dont look further than that and dont forget to take your daily dose of soma.
Just leave any server with that type of content and you should be fine. I am not really that worried about that since I don't do weird shit on discord. All the other servers I follow right now are safe.
Let me know how the appeal process goes. I also was only in the server to see when updates dropped. Never posted or anything, but I don't want to get banned for challenging the carpet bomb.
So instead of looking at factual data, you rather take one single event and make legislation about it?
- statistics are statistics. It isnt a proper factual data in itself.
- so you are just lame troll than. I wish i didnt engaged.
Keep someone talking long enough and they give themselves away...
. I don't like your take on this, so you Racccccist.... So typical & NPC like its laughable .
