    Ah yes.

    An emerging type of criminal, ones that have never done crime before, and hence their behaviour can’t be predicted…

    As if every criminal ever didn’t have a first crime.

    Plus, people acting themselves until they finally reach a breaking point isn’t “new” human behaviour.

    I’ve seen some of the most fucked up shit humanity has to offer. I sought it out, as a teen. I had a morbid curiosity.

    I haven’t killed anyone. Yet.

    You know what’s really making me want to, though? Seeing fascism on the rise around the globe. Seeing some stupid pieces of shit dismantling social programs and classifying groups of people as not even people in my country, and seeing nobody do anything to stop it.

      I’ve never been in a fight as an adult. I own a no guns. I have no criminal record

      I have violent fantasies about Elon Musk every day now. I also imagine myself strangling Nazi marchers in my hometown.

        I have been attacked by some idiot, and I have to admit it felt good to pin him to the ground after I escaped his chokehold (by punching his nose behind my back). I would like to test if this feeling could be replicated with your fantasies.

    Hasn’t crime in developed nations decreased almost every year for decades if not centuries?

    Theres no superkiller mind virus radiating off the internet, calm down.

      There was an uptick of violent crimes from covid. Apparently people being couped up at home made em go a little crazy.

      I believe it is either leveling off or going down depending on where you are now.

      Obvs there is a darkwebmindvirus from 4chan and we need to give governments open access to all our data, otherwise another ceo might receive a rude text message.

        In general, the government and corporations are opposed. Thats why whenever we appoint corporate goons to office theu dismantle the government.
