Yes

I think it’s a sign of social decay though. Beyond the fact that our leaders are awful and want to throw us all in prison, for wrong think, there’s a real uptick in criminality. And that comes from the cultural damage society has sustained.

My first day in elementary psychology: "Punish behaviors you don't want repeated, and rewards the behaviors you do want repeated."

Color me shocked. I got frog marched home from a drug store for stealing $7 worth of gum as a kid, and my mom popped me with a backhand with her engagement ring shortly thereafter. I stopped stealing shite.

Yeah a slight uptick after 20+ years of major decline.

The 80s through mid-90s were a fricking war zone in the US.
