Serial killers overwhelmingly target minorities and the poor, this is why they are tolerated and tacitly encouraged by the bourgeoisie. As a visceral and immediate threat they distract the lower classes while being no danger to the elite. I believe that the vast majority of serial killers are known to the authorities but are allowed to operate until they become too inconvenient (such as the one in Toronto who police knowingly ignored for almost a decade until they finally killed someone connected.) In addition I believe that serial killersc are an existential threat to the common people and allowing them to live once caught displays disgusting cowardice and represents a moral failing on behalf of our society. Likely the reason that perpetrating dozens of rapes/tortures/murders/etc of the most heinous kind, is not an automatic execution is because our elites behave this way regularly on their private gatherings (as was covered up in the Jeffrey Epstein debacle.)

Anyway what do you all think on the topic? If you’re wondering it was that post about the two guys killing the kid that set me off. Might make some more rants on other topics lol.

    I have literally done no reading into this specific topic but my research into drugs, gangs, human trafficking, organized crime as union busting, school shootings, terrorist attacks, psyops etc makes me feel confident enough to say : I would not be surprised in the least to learn that at least some serial killers are groomed and/or government ops lmao. I know it sounds far fetched but they instill a sense of paranoia that is pretty un-merited and undermines proletarian solidarity and reinforces petit-bourgeois misanthropy. Like the idea that people say all the time “can’t leave your kids alone or a weirdo will kidnap them” is really a positive situation for a police state trying to justify repression and undermine solidarity.

        lmao. I’m reading a book on the opium wars right now and it just makes me think that people underestimate how low Western leadership goes on a regular basis. nothing is outside the realm of the possible with these creeps.

      Yes that background sense of paranoia is exactly the case. We are constantly bombarded through news, films, games, etc. Constantly reminded of the possibility that some hidden psychopath will visit a horrible fate on us. Providing a constant background hum of fear in the populace. I think it’s very possible that this is used to make people more pliable to the further militarization of the police state, expansion of surveillance, etc.
