I was going to tell Lemmy a little about this, but if you’re getting downvoted, this is not the place. I just confirm it is the case for me, family and classmate. It can be scary outside.
Yeah Lemmy takes Reddit’s “full of bitter, lonely men” problem and amplifies it by selecting the ones opinionated enough to leave Reddit on either principle or through a permaban.
It’s a common phrase for to describe prioritizing bad news over normal news in media… basically saying bad shit gets top billing on news outlets. For example, murder, accidents, deaths, etc, they will lead the news feeds. This tends to give watchers/readers a skewed perspective as to how bad things are in the world. For example, murder rates may be down but media constantly hyping up the latest murders may get people to think it’s the worst it’s ever been… reality be damned.
The press will make you paranoid about everyone. If it bleeds it leads.
Every woman you know has a friend that was raped. Or is the friend.

Exactly, you should stop listening to media and start listening to the experiences of women close to you instead.
What does that last part mean?
