    Not directly related to this, but I just remembered when the cops shot up that UPS truck with the hostage inside. The hostage was killed by the cops and UPS apologized to the cops.

            You’re right, they survived no thanks to the cops though. The cops were shooting to kill

              Someone recently linked me a compilation of cops losing gunfights, and there are multiple clips where the pigs are trying to shoot someone in the back while they run away, but miss over and over. So, so many of them really are dogshit with their weapons

      From my memory it wasn’t so much an “apology” as a “we thank you an respect you for your service”. Not that it matters a whole lot.

        My understanding was that it had to do not so much with defection as much as POWs being anti-war and unwilling to fight when they were returned due to DPRK/PRC propaganda. Of course, the propaganda was just a tour of Pyongyang and other firsthand witness of the destruction their side caused.

    Reminds me of when the Ned Kelly gang had taken hostages in their last shootout and they let them go only for the police to open fire on the hostages who then fled back to the gang cause they trusted them more

    Also, in absolutely any hostage situation you SHOULD develop Stockholm Syndrome. Trying to convince your kidnappers that you are on their side is just a healthy survival instinct doing exactly what it is supposed to, even if you live in a fantasy land where the cops are all good guys who care only about your safety. This is a bit like giving the desire to leave a burning building a name and trying to tell people that it is a mental disorder.

      Convincing your kidnappers you’re on their side is not stockholm syndrome.

      Actually coming to believe it yourself despite the kidnappers not actually valuing your life, against your own material best interests, is the traditional definition.

        Sure, but the traditional definition is based on a real hostage situation and it is specifically based on how those people acted while still being held hostage. Once they were free it turned out that they didn’t actually enjoy being held hostage and didn’t love their captors. Convincing their kidnappers that they were on their side is pretty much all they were doing.

    Bus 174 is a documentary about street kid who took a bus hostage. Throughout they make references to a deadly outcome and when they got to that part, it turns out the police fucked up and caused the deaths.

    It’s a good documentary despite it being made by the same guy who went on to make narcos.
