    You try to learn how to read people by watching true crime TV shows?

    That’s really counterproductive.

      Well she’s right about one thing, and that’s that true crime is as realistic and useful as a fairy tale lol.

      Like come on, let’s be real: We watch true crime out of morbid curiosity and because the shows are entertaining. That’s fine! IDK why some people try to launder their interest in true crime as some sort of “research” to protect themselves.

        Because no matter what you like and for whatever reason you will always get shit on both here on the internet and IRL. So we’ve all normalized having to defend our opinions.

      No, you learn to recognize red flags from real life examples and make the right choices if you’re ever in that situation.

        You’re learning red flags from a dramatization of an interpretation of a perhaps-real situation used to sell advertising. Do you think it really reflects things you should use to judge people and situations?

          Not all true crime are dramatizations… there are a million YouTube shows out there that show you the exact footage, go over the exact details, etc…
