Reminder that the term Stockholm Syndrome was coined to blame victims for being rightly more afraid of the police than their captors:
In [Jess Hill’s] 2019 treatise on domestic violence See What You Made Me Do, Australian journalist Jess Hill described the syndrome as a “dubious pathology with no diagnostic criteria”, and stated that it is “riddled with misogyny and founded on a lie”; she also noted that a 2008 literature review revealed “most diagnoses [of Stockholm syndrome] are made by the media, not by psychologists or psychiatrists.” In particular, Hill’s analysis revealed that Stockholm authorities, responded to the robbery in a way that put the hostages at greater risk from the police than from their captors (hostage Kristin Enmark, who during the siege was granted a telephone call with Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme, reported that Palme told her that the government would not negotiate with criminals); as well, she observed that Bejerot’s diagnosis of Enmark was made without ever having spoken to her.
Otherwise, we probably agree that AmeriKKKans are a feckless, servile people.
Nils Bejerot was a total hack. He tried to ban comic books, and later transcribed that same energy in a war on drugs that has resulted in some of the worst health outcomes for drug users in Europe. Unfortunately his ability to be confidently incorrect swayed a lot of gullible rubes, and his legacy still casts a shadow over Sweden to this day.
Stockholm syndrome is a proposed condition to explain why hostages occasionally develop a psychological bond with their captors. It is named after an attempted bank robbery in 1973, in Stockholm, Sweden
My comment was in response to a comment about AmeriKKKans having “Stockholm Syndrome”, which as it turns out is not a real or valuable diagnosis. However, I do not disagree with the implied critique of AmeriKKKan people as being feckless and servile people.
A: It completely undercuts the seriousness of your comment and makes the whole thing come off as a tirade by an edgy teenager.
So you disagree with the tone and not what I’m saying? Because if so, that sounds like a “you” problem, i.e. you’re more interested in the tone of a message than its content.
B: Jokes don’t get funnier every time you repeat them, it was mid the first time and eye roll worthy by the 3rd.
It’s not a joke and it’s not supposed to be funny. I genuinely hate the USA and everything it stands for.
AmeriKKKa is a settler-colonialist project, and the entity and its defenders deserve zero respect. I mentioned AmeriKKKans because the person I replied to used Stockholm Syndrome to critique AmeriKKKans on a post critiquing the AmeriKKKan healthcare system, so critiquing AmeriKKKa is relevant here. And I don’t like spelling AmeriKKKa as part of USA correctly because (1) places like Central America and South America should be distinguished from the United States of AmeriKKKa, and (2) it offends the people who need to be offended, i.e. people who still feel affinity for the AmeriKKKan project and people who tone-police others who are just brutally honest in speaking their minds.
You are literally posting from an anarchist Lemmy instance, why TF is this controversial to you?
Fine, just do Ctrl+F, replace each instance of AmeriKKKa with {insert preferred term for the United States}, and move on with your life. Like I’m not even trying to get you to say it, I’m just saying it. It’s almost like you have a problem with what I’m saying and not just how I’m saying it…

I agree with your points, just sucks that you chose to present it in such a juvenile way.
So you disagree with the tone and not what I’m saying? Because if so, that sounds like a “you” problem, i.e. you’re more interested in the tone of a message than its content.

Man you really need to work on your communication if you ever want anyone to listen to you.
This is very much so a you problem because you’re not going to get far acting like this to people who agree with you.
No I’m pretty sure you’re a liberal, right? We probably do not agree almost at all. See this video for more information.
Don’t worry when you grow out of being a tankie people will start taking you seriously
Being “slightly less than servile to AmeriKKKan sensitivities while anarchist” is not being “a tankie”.
Boo-hoo buddy who the fuck cares, clearly you do and you felt the need to tell everybody on the net like a fucking baby
Wow such maturity, this is why nobody takes tankies seriously.
Don’t worry when you grow up and learn how to communicate effectively people will listen to you.
The fuck did you just call me weirdo quit trying to fucking put me in a box, fuck off
Lol
Lol ok tankie
whoa! so edgy, poignant, and relevant!
and so creative!
amazing!
*and everyone clapped*

wow, each time you write “AmeriKKKa” you just get so so much smarter.
it makes me really care about what else you have to say… so so much!
That guy is a fucking idiot apparently. I hope they get the mental help they obviously need
Yeah I hope I get the mental help I obviously need…oh no wait I’m in the US so no I won’t
Yeah I stand by my statement, you can regurgitate things I agree with but you’re absolutely insufferable.
When the people who agree with you think you’re an asshole, you’re fucking up badly.
Go learn some social skills and try again.
Agreed lol I don’t like me either
No I actually suspect we disagree, but you think we agree. This isn’t the first time I’ve seen you comment.
I suspect you’re not anywhere near as smart as you believe yourself to be.

It’s funny how you can russlr your Jimmy’s just by saying a simple word, you wouldn’t have to be Conservative weirdo are you
