The Rape 'Epidemic' Doesn't Actually Exist

The situation is the same with almost any other crime (it's down, or not rising at all) but from all the talk and media reporting you would thing we're living in the end of times.

Fear has become a drug and we're addicted to it.

Feminism definition: the act of heterosexual congress is rape of the female by the male by default(until proven otherwise).

It is an unhealthy view of human sexuality directly inherited from the roman church of anhedonism.

The false rape epidemic is not, however.

I have several police friends who have let me in on a secret, which is that police KNOW that the vast majority of rape allegations are false, but keep this hidden for purely political reasons.

So sensitive is this that police who speak out basically face instant dismissal, even though they are forced to pursue rape cases they know are either blatantly false or of highly questionable merit.

Basically police are confronted with a constant stream of false accusations from mainly teenage girls driven by revenge or spite, and this stream outnumbers the valid accusations by an order of magnitude. In fact, legitimate claims are rare islands in a sea of lies. Nonetheless, they are forced to deal with cases on the grounds of possibility of conviction, rather than what the evidence is telling them.

Yet these numbers, and the actual experience faced by police dealing with this constant stream of false accusation, is highly censored and repressed. Politicians and the media want to continue their hyped up, false narrative, that rape is some uncontrolled epidemic (much like they are starting to do with domestic violence), and they don't want pesky police disrupting that narrative with, you know, the truth.

The question is what is motivating these political campaigns? Clearly the media and politicians think there is something to be gained, perhaps to create a "moral panic" such that has been used over the centuries to distract the downtrodden masses from questioning the state of society.

I believe what feminists take issue with is the idea of victim blaming rather than the "epidemic".
