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.

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.

    You lost me with thebrepeated “amerikkkan” thing.
    
    A: It completely undercuts the seriousness of your comment and makes the whole thing come off as a tirade by an edgy teenager.
    
    B: Jokes don’t get funnier every time you repeat them, it was mid the first time and eye roll worthy by the 3rd.
    
    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.

    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. You are literally on 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. It’s almost like you have a problem with what I’m saying and not how I’m saying it…

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.
