re: this article.

The title is a joke. “Free, but you have to make an EGS account” is a bit too rich for me.

    Fun fact:

    The origin of the term “Stockholm Syndrome” comes from a hostage situation in which the police did not seem to care about the well being of the hostages and were actively taking actions that were dangerous to them, while the hostage takers started taking actions to protect the hostages from police.

    Instead of running the story “police fucked up” news outlets exaggerated the behaviour of hostages that were just trying to survive.
