(Anonymous) 2022-07-24 08:39 am (UTC)(link)I do however, struggle to connect to a lot of true crime stuff due to the "Stay Sexy Don't Get Murdered" sort of behavior/attitude towards it (feel like it's been way more of a ~thing~ in the past 3-4 years). Like, I think a lot of people who are into true crime or do true crime stuff think that we all want to feel like "Isn't this cool? Aren't we quirky and ~edgy~ for being into ~dark~ shit?"
And yeah, it's outside of easy-to-digest conversations like the weather or someone's latest hobby in baking bread or watching a new fictional tv show, but like...these stories are about real humans. What happened to them not only affected the people it happened to, but it affected their families, the community they lived, their friends and loved ones....like...it's more than just "teehee wasn't Ted Bundy a fucking weirdo creep that just wrecked havoc on the nation?"
Like, here's an average guy who harmed and killed dozens of women and it was turned into a farce. What does that say about what society thinks of women? But let's go off about Ted Bundy's life and the women who are fascinated by him. Because teehee we can judge people and compare ourselves to them.
So fucking disgusted by the ways true crime has been going. It's all about selling "fun" than it is to think about life and death and why humans inflict violence and pain and suffering upon each other.
