Anyone whose family line goes back more than three generations in North America has a usually bullshit but sometimes occasionally true story about their native ancestor

Except my stepfather. His family insists like holy hell that they have no native lineage despite all the photographs of their grandparents that are completely incontrovertible

Right wing twitter is mad about George Floyd again because of a new Candace Owens movie or something, and I'm just remembering how much of an effort all the liberal BLM people made to be as peaceful and civil as possible and how it doesn't matter because the right think they burned down entire cities anyway. So they got all the bad PR of doing citywide riots, but without the actual harm to capital that would have caused.

remember how Minneapolis city council supposedly agreed to put forth a ballot proposal to disband their police department, and everyone was celebrating it as a huge victory but then it turned out the city council's plan for disbanding the police department was to then immediately replace it with an organization with the same purview, budget, facilities, and equipment, and then rehire all the same people to staff it, which is to say they were actually just renaming the police department

and then in the end even that hilariously meaningless token gesture was drowned in a multi-million-dollar right-wing advertising blitz and easily defeated at the ballot box

and that advertising was so effective that a bunch of those people are still 100% convinced that, not only was Minneapolis seriously considering disbanding their police force, but that it did actually happen and the city is just run by gangs now

There was a viral twitter post the other day about how two thirds of the top 20 shows in America are some sort of cop show and what I'm saying is I don't think leftists/young people in general realise just how terrified the average boomer is from all the media they consume about how criminals are going to slash their throat. Also have to wonder if the popularity of true crime is connected to this.

Hasn't violent crime been going down since the early 90s? like, it peaked a bit in the latter part of the Trump years, but still way lower than it was in 1991. Funny, because the children of the 80s were the "latchkey kid" generation. Parents back then weren't scared at all that someone was going to hurt them despite it being statistically far more likely. When did that start to change? Was it the Satanic panic of the late 80s? Obviously it's been a slow burn, but I feel like I have gradually been watching people become more paranoid over the course of my life. Born in 1991 btw.

we basically don't have serial killers in north america any more compared to the 50s-80s and most child abductions are from family members, but you can drive up suburban real estate prices and sell folks ring cameras and kid leashes by telling them everybody is out to kidnap kaylee or breighton

i was latchkey at age 12-13 (early 90s) and our house was on a gravel road out in the sticks but nobody gave a poo poo it was completely normal

all the parents i know with minor children today have told me that you will literally get cops and cps at your door if your child is spotted walking around or playing unsupervised more than 100 feet from your house in broad daylight

I think there was a slight uptick at the start of the decade but otherwise yeah, I'm pretty sure it's gone down every year

E: lol wait it's only 2022. So I think the uptick was in 2019 or 2020.

it seems like public spaces in general are more hostile to children/teens just existing there than they were when I was that age, not that being a teen in the Bush years was the greatest but I feel like it was better than today. It's easy to complain about how todays messed up teens are always on their phones TikToking instead of doing stuff in the real world. But they're products of the world that older generations created around them.

One of the few mostly public indoor spaces the US allowed was malls.

And now they all have "no kids allowed" signs. It's an insanely sick culture.

"kids hanging out at the mall" was such a staple of pop culture from the mid eighties through to somewhere in the 2000s. I'm not sure what killed that genre of tv show/book/movie, possibly the GFC idk. I'm reading Animorphs for the first time, and it's wild to me how that series was such a product of the late 90s. In part because so much of the time not spent turning into animals and fighting aliens is just teenagers doing stuff at the mall completely unsupervised.
