I’m not sure the context of what you said but there’s way too many people accusing that the victim may have started it or it was their fault in some way. Lots of the dialogue really is just victim blaming.

As the page suggests: “a place for women to spread the word about potentially harmful people on the streets in Philly.” And it is exactly that. I haven’t seen any evidence of trying to stir panic or an agenda. Every post has been legitimate as far as I’ve seen.

My bad. Definitely had a rage response haha. It was in reference to the watchoutphilly page and the amount of victim blaming etc. They have posted pictures of people previously (then deleted upon backlash) of houseless individuals and others with mental illness and when there is the slightest pushback or chance for dialogue, you are blocked. They came off at times as “omg a crazy person!” and what some would call “basic white women”. Maybe they’ve changed but the experiences that I’ve had with them and their followers wasn’t anything to write home about.
