Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Due to the bystander effect its highly unlikely any stranger would help you if you got attacked in a public spaceEnglish
33·2 months agoBystander Effect occurs when specific conditions are met and is not just a prevailing rule of human behavior.
The original incident that inspired this phenomenon was shown to be overly exaggerated to reinforce the idea of the inherently violent and apathetic human - which does sell well in newspapers back then and social media now.
If the attack was non-ambiguous, percieved as a high danger/emergency, against the social order/ group cohesion, and bystanders feels competent - do you think you wouldn’t get help? Stop being sold that you are alone and everyone else are apathetic uncaring “humans”, humans legitimately wouldn’t have gotten this far as a species without helping one another.

My first thought to OP was “please stop talking” - I really didn’t need to read this before bed
