  • Just because it isn’t dangerous to the average individual does not mean it isn’t a problem and something that should not be happening.

    The entire point of this thread is that from an outsiders perspective, you’re only going to see the news articles and form biased opinions. You’re going to see “Oh wow, the US has a lot of school shootings, schools must be super dangerous!”, meanwhile there were 82 deaths from school shootings last year out of 49.4 million students, or 0.000165% of the student population. Even looking at injuries, we only get to 0.00054%.

    Is that number too high? Fuck yes. Any number of children injured or dying due to violence is unacceptable. It’s disgusting and the lack of response from our leadership is abhorrent. But are schools in the US dangerous because of this? Absolutely not.




  • Yes. Language can show what sort of media people consume and the sorts of groups they socialize with, especially when it comes to the internet.

    If someone is using incel language, there will be a strong initial assumption they spend time within incel circles consuming toxic content like Andrew Tate and will remain under that assumption until proven otherwise. Sorry, not sorry?
