we’re almost in the ‘20s and dadaism is thriving, europe’s in a shambles, everyone is broke and the right wing is on the rise so i guess we really don’t learn a goddamn thing huh
Hello, college grad that actually wrote an award winning paper on this topic! Here’s some knowledge I’d like to share: There’s actually been studies as to why it’s usually white kids, a large conclusion amongst the criminology community is that those that often have more privileged lives (white kids in our society’s case) are less adept to dealing with stress and denial. Whereas minorities and others are more likely to cope and function normally despite stressors because of the constant stressors that come from systematic racism and/or other platforms of more limited priviledge.
TL;DR: It’s usually a white kid because their privilege incacipated their ability to learn how to handle stress/ denial/ whatever without acting out. The less privileged are done used to the bs and thus typically dont turn to extreme measures as coping mechanisms.

The majority of shooters are white, male, and have a history of violence against women. We cannot ignore gender when discussing this issue.
some kid in gsa: i’m just a hecking smol pupper that watches thomas sanders bc he’s a gay icon! hamilton is my favorite musical and i like detroit become human too >.<!!
me a normal gay person:
@op let kids enjoy things challenge
“I am not like other gays uwu other gays are embarrassing and dare to even look at problematic things while i am normal and live up to a 100% purity culture standard and only like the wokest™ of all woke things uwu ”
halloween is fast approaching, and sending screamers has become an increasingly popular trend over the past few years. while some people may enjoy them, they can also trigger anxiety attacks in others.
check the section/category of a video. if it’s under “comedy”, “prank”, “horror”, or something similar, close the tab immediately.
comments are also a giveaway. scroll to the comments section before playing a video. if comments are disabled, there’s a likely chance the video is a screamer. close the tab right away. if you see comments like “whoa, that made me jump!”, close the window! and if it’s impossible to disable comments, look for multiple comments deleted by the creator.
check out the video itself, while it’s paused. if it has very low music (this makes the audience want to turn the volume up, so the scream is louder and scarier), or if it has very small text (which makes you want to go into full screen), that’s a good indication that it’s a screamer. exit out and close the tab!
look at the content of the video. if the clip itself deals with the scary or supernatural, like a film about ghosts, you can’t be certain. be careful, and exit the tab if the content seems triggering. pause the video and forward all the way to the end. If everything is good feel free to watch. if a frame with a scary picture comes up, close the tab immediately.
if the video shows a room or picture, and invites you to “find what’s wrong in the picture”, or “find _____”, close the window immediately!
there’s a new trend going on where videos describing people reacting to screamers are actually screamers themselves. if you suspect this, scroll down and see the comments. if the maker of the video disabled comments to purposely lead viewers to believe the video is genuine, scroll down just enough to see the video time, so you don’t see the video itself. Turn the volume down, just in case it is a screamer, and if the video plays out and there’s no scream, it’s safe to watch.
check the time on the video. if it’s suspiciously short, exit the tab.
look at the related or recommended videos. if any of them fit the above, the video is a screamer.
stay safe this halloween season!
also there’s another one that you forgot which i usually look for first when it comes to wondering if a video is a screamer or not, and that is checking the likes to dislikes ratio. if the dislikes are an abundant amount, close the tab. this is a fairly common one that i usually remember.
reblogging as a way to help you guys find screamer-free videos! we won’t be posting any screamers here this halloween 💜 – mod robot
Stay safe!! I personally love jump scares, but once when I was eight, I showed “The Scary Maze Game” to my friend, who literally had a panic attack, and I am scarred for life with the guilt from that episode. It seems like it’s a in good fun, but it really hurts some people, so please be careful!
these always give me panic attacks thank you !!
PSA, ‘cause people can be pricks.
You all need to know this; and if you’re an asshole who purposely does stuff to make people have a panic attack; you can get the fuck off of this blog.
Thank you for these! Halloween time is my favorite time of year, but screamers give me horrible panic attacks
If you tell me “x person you reblogged from is a huge bigot” and I say I’m sorry and delete it and then some time later you see me reblog something else with them in it, I promise it’s not because I don’t care or disregarded you. I have a terrible memory for names and I trend towards skimming the things I read and I miss a lot of information.
So please know I’m sorry and it’s not on purpose and I do care.
I hate to say it but this sounds like every domestic abuser I’ve ever seen on TV. I’m sorry, baby. You know I don’t mean it, won’t happen again…
….what? Like…actually….the fuck? Like I’m just curious about how you typed that out, looked at it and then went “yep, that seems like a good idea, I’m going to press a button and send this out into the world”?
this just in: not reading the url on a tumblr post is on par with beating your spouse i guess
breaking news: having a shit memory and unintentionally upsetting someone because you forgot something is apparently worse than someone who remembers and intentionally does those things
