My issue is with the topic title. Clearly framing.

If it had not been gay men, would the topic title be "Straight Man Kills Other Straight Man And Eats Him Alive"

Also how do you kill someone, then eat them alive.


the mention of sexuality is of interest since it alerts at risk communities and also highlights the parallel between this whacko and Jeffrey Dahmer. seeing as Netflix has a star show called Dahmer, documenting and likely glorifying his crimes to some viewers, more copycats could be coming down the pipe.

facts > feelings

My issue with the framing of the topic title specifically.
Valid point about warning communities. Although are we suggesting that the gay community has more prevalence to psychopathic cannibalism?

And if we are saying that. Is that a fact, or just how we feel about it?

So the gays are trying to catch up with straight icons like Jeffrey Dahmer finally.

No one is suggesting anything? A pattern exists no matter what way you feel about it. As for the thread title... what's untrue about it?

Wrong again.
Raymond Smith was a 32-year-old male prostitute whom Dahmer lured to Apartment 213 with the promise of $50 for sex.

Pattern recognized.

Hilarious catch.

Honestly though, just let him have this one. We have seen so much BS framing you have to expect it at this point. We can only take so much “black man gets x” (the only color they would use in a headline) before you have this ridiculous headline popping up.

Haha, I hear this phrase often on the internet. It's actually the opposite in real life. Factual argument rarely sway people but arguments based on feelings are much more compelling. That's why marketing folks always try to get you to feel a certain way in a commercial instead of spamming facts.

no doubt on media swing.

the Baconator being gay isn't insignificant and I hope Prox will realize they can't censor facts because they are offended by them or prefer they be "framed" differently
