Hey, it's 80% of reported violent crime. We're just better at it and don't get caught, obvs.

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

The real reason women love true crime podcasts: learning from the mistakes of others

[-] TachyonTele@piefed.social 3 points 2 months ago

And watching all the men fail

Hey, it’s 80% of reported violent crime

Police are already abysmal at actually documenting reported crimes. That's double so when it runs against the toxic reactionary attitudes common to these departments.

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago

That's because you're measuring physical violence, not psychological. We skate under the radar once again.

[-] P1k1e@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

But but but if they did 80% then MEN wouldn't be taken seriously!!!!!

[-] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

How so? They can both do 80%. This will increase the total number of crimes to 160% but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to pay to protect equality, the second amendment and the free world.

[-] buttnugget@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

So who’s committing the final 80% of crime then? Nonbinary people?

[-] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

80% (women) + 80% (men) + 80% (non binary) + 80% (pets) = 160% (total)

80% of violent crime? Cute. Lesbians are busy cornering the space crime market (allegedly).

[-] burntbacon@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 months ago

That was a fake, just so you're aware. Still hilarious as a meme.

[-] TaterTot@piefed.social 0 points 2 months ago

oh.... I guess it's true what they say... never meet your heroes...

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Be the lesbian space crime you want to see I guess?

[-] resting_parrot@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Be gay. Do space crime

[-] ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Checkmate feminists.

[-] EvilCartyen@feddit.dk 1 points 2 months ago

Pathetic. Get in the game, women.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Gonna be trotting out the ol' 13/50 next?

More like, want to have the same outcome as men at 80% of the effort.

Or am I making a shitty effort meme that mimics OP? If you're offended by this joke and not by OP, think of your own bias.

[-] Agrivar@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

OP is a lighthearted joke that punches up, whereas yours was the opposite. Maybe think about your own biases, jackass.

[-] Bennyboybumberchums@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

how the fuck is attacking men punching "up"? Are men a monolith in your world?

[-] parody@lemmings.world 0 points 2 months ago

We’re not a monolith but I am aware of some facts about us, like we’re statistically more likely to have shorter hair and take more dangerous jobs and commit violence—none of which offend me although the third one is incredibly disappointing.

I believe I can see where you’re coming from. That said I would be interested in reading a bit more about your perspective on why this meme attacks men. Thank ya

[-] Bgugi@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Replace "men" with just about any protected class, and this statistic with another one that reflezcts comparably on that group.

[-] parody@lemmings.world 1 points 2 months ago

Fair, thank you

Studies have shown that males are jailed with 8:2 ratio compared to their female counterparts!

We demand equal prison female population for equal criminal efforts! Just because I'm a woman, does not make me an inferior criminal! lmao..!

[-] Fleur_@aussie.zone 0 points 2 months ago

Man you need to be more concerned with your jokes being funny than being offensive

Imagine running an excavator with a hard hat on like you don't have ROPS/FOPS.

[-] Agrivar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

"ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure) and FOPS (Falling Object Protective Structure) are safety features integrated into heavy machinery to protect operators."

For everyone else unfamiliar with those acronyms!

[-] frank@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 months ago

Could be in and out of the machine often at a site/plant that requires it outside and doesn't bother to take it off?

The reality is that it's probably a photoshoot

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

You do realize everyone has to wear a hard hat on a construction site by osha safety standards right?

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 0 points 2 months ago

That's what the FOPS is for.

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Sure it is a redundant protection but as a longtime journey level construction worker I can tell you you still have to wear a hard hat on construction sites anywhere on site
