One thing that irritates me a little bit is how people talk about crime and crime stats. They individualize it and talk about ethnicity or morals and then use crime stats to paint a picture of innate criminality. Whereas the real picture is completely the opposite where crime actually follows a power law distribution. A small amount of people organise and create criminal networks, (often based on kinship ties) and ruin society for everyone else. All the police have to do is just jail these career criminals for a very long time to solve the issue. But they refuse to do this and instead violate the common man's liberty to privacy via mass surveillance.

Why Am I quoted here? Just for the record I find the whole „immigrants are terrorists/criminals“ narrative from the German center right totally pointless and I don‘t subscribe to it. My criticism is a different one entirely

Why do you even try to argue against my perception of safety? It is none of your business and your stats wouldn‘t also provoke an update to my priors because I‘m not coming at this from a stats perspective. Feeling unsafe is not a stats property, it is clearly lived experience. I’ve said this today before but if you‘re so much removed from the problems that you have to consult the stats then the system is probably working well for you because you have a higher societal status. Otherwise if you‘d sew with my eyes you‘d obviously understand
