832: Cissexist Hxstory
Cincinnati Zoo Gorilla, Stanford Rape Case Trends
The hosts identify a media trend of shifting blame onto parents in high-profile news stories, such as the killing of a gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo and the Brock Turner sexual assault case at Stanford. They argue that the public conversation focuses more on "privilege" and "bad parenting" than on underlying issues like school drinking culture. This trend is viewed as a way to manipulate social media users into "echo chamber" outrage.
