Hell yeah

We need to get this series banned from Netflix.

You guys are weird.

"I don't like it so no one else should be able to watch it"

No one should be watching a perverted show that glorifies a serial killer. Now that's weird and creepy af

so dont watch but let others watch if they want to see it

Explain in what way he is glorified.

He's clearly being made into some sort of fascinating villainous character a la Joker and a slasher film killer. So yes glorification.

Lol no one is selling jeffrey dahmer merchandise or swag.

Everyone knows he's a deranged fuckhead.

He's clearly being made into some sort of fascinating villainous character a la Joker and a slasher film killer with shows like this and various pop culture references. So yes it's glorification.

A simple documentary explaining his case to spread awareness would be fine, but we have plenty of those. This series is worthless.

Violent video games can push violent and impressionable people over the edge to commit heinous acts.

Nobody is coming away from the show being like "i wanna be like him! Such a dark cool mysterious character!"

ALS researchers are fascinated by ALS. Does that mean they think it's good, or that they want it?

I finished watching the show yesterday and it definitely does not glorify him or what he did. It's highly critical of his actions, and the actions of those who facilitated his behavior. And it puts a good amount of focus on showing how he damaged the families and communities he committed his crimes in.

He's been dead for almost 30yrs he's not getting anything from this, and the show is clear throughout the he was a monster.

it's Adam you're responding to

i've read that the series was exceptionally well executed, but i'm not sure if i can watch it

i listened to a podcast on him once and had to stop it because i was so disgusted

Maybe 'glorifying' isn't the proper term, but we have to be honest about what is actually happening. People are watching this because they want to see the spectacle of this serial killer and the families of the victims do not want to be apart of that spectacle.

nope. a sister of one of the victims spoke out recently about how she thinks it's messed up that Netflix is profiting off of this and she says she was never contacted.

Should we not write or generate any art about crime, as it is exploitative to those who experience it and will often feature the criminals as character studies?

Like even fictional crime can retraumatize victims, and puts the spotlight on the criminals.

Idk, seems like these arguments are just poorly thought out.

anyone that claims that he is being glorified in the netflix show either hasn't watched it or doesn't understand what someone being glorified actually means.

Everyone was into the Bundy stuff a few years ago. Why is everyone so opposed to Dahmer shows?

Pot here's kettle fuck outta here

They're immortalizing a serial killer and making him out to be a movie villain.

he was already 'immortalized'

the show makes him look like the absolute scum he is

Then they're immortalizing his pathetic ass even further.

It makes him look like fucking Michael Meyers.

, you just don't understand television and how it works obviously.

the show is fine and it is nothing like a horror movie at all.

i will never understand people that melt down about true crime content.
