Hi! I'm Shaniya but I use the moniker Shanspeare on KZfaq. I'm 23, use they/them pronouns, and love all things pop culture! My channel has a lot going on: think Shakespeare meets Baz Luhrmann meets insufferable jester in a relevant but silly costume. I have a bachelor's in English Professional Writing (and basically Literary Analysis--long story) which aids me in the creation of my content. Above all, I wish to emphasize teachability and critical engagement through a fun lens.

The first messed up move Ryan Murphy and the team behind Dahmer took was just assume that no response means a yes. If we as a society has learned anything from the conversation around consent, only a yes means yes. This principle should be applied to any situation that requires consent. The fact that the Dahmer team ignored that notion shows that they really didn’t care what the families of the victims had to say and just wanted to make a shocking project. They didn’t want to make a difference or shed light on any other social issues; they just wanted a film that would get them a lot of attention and praise.

I completely agree!! And that argument goes for all victims too, no matter how they present Not trying to take away from womens suffering ofc as I’m a victim of abuse as well, just wanted to bring this up too since it pisses me the FUCK. OFF. that my boyfriend is called feminine and “weak” by his dad for having been abused by a woman!! Which is infuriating and also ties into the fact that society views women as lesser than People can complain all they want about “Oh, well women get lesser sentences in court! They’re coddled!” Which, yeah that may be true to a degree, but it doesn’t make our suffering in other ways any less real or important And it seems like no one ever asks WHY that’s true? It’s because women are so fucking infantilized News flash, we’re just as capable of being terrible people as men are. We should have equal rights and equal responsibility, and victims shouldn’t be brushed off when they speak up I think I got a bit off topic with my ramblings lol Moral of the story I agree with what you’re saying

one could say it may be a product of masculinity. toxic masculinity says emotions are weak, so feeling empathy and pain for these victims isn't as cool as flexing your lack of empathy, your proof you've "overcome" weaker emotions to show how unfazed and strong you are. not that men only do it, but masculinity is the aspiration anyone should have since it offers power. anyway lol just spouting whatever comes to mind

As was said in the video, the genre of true crime does hold potential. A channel I watch that sometimes discusses past cases often provides a psychological, mental etc outlook and explanation for the cases (since many of them dealt with abuse, now that I think about it). Or in other words, the different cases would be used to discuss some narrative (i.e. what happens when two narcissist come together, the effects of past abuse etc etc). Many viewers usually found the videos comforting or validating in a way since the videos would come full circle to talk about an overarching theme (that may be more relatable, since not everyone experiences being involved in a “true crime case”).

@@Shanspeare Agreed. True crime has potential but often times it ends up being entertainment. Though I also understand that people have limited amount of energy to empathise with all kinds of stories. Some stories just hit different for a variety of reasons. Maybe the city the case took place is familiar? Maybe the listener/viewer knows someone who was affected by the case or even just a similar case? And so on. For me, an interesting example of true crime and it’s potential to influence real world in a positive way, comes from nearby. I live in Finland and happened to listen to a true crime podcast with my sister this summer. It was a new podcast by YLE (Finland’s national public service media company) and each episode dealt with a different case. The podcaster not only summarized the case but also interviewed a wide variety of people: experts on various topics, police, friends and families of the victims and so on. One of the cases dealt with the disappearance and murder of a 17 year old girl, Sari Liinaharja, in 1987. It’s a very well-known case here in Finland because the perpetrator was never caught. The podcaster, though, went and interviewed a man who had been a suspected to be the murderer. The man had been interviewed by police several times before but he had always denied of ever been in contact with the victim or having been driving in the area at the time of the disappearance/murder. On the podcast, though, he suddenly decided to tell - on tape - that he had been driving in the area. And he also said that they had offered a ride to a hitchhiker whom he thought was Sari Liinaharja. He didn’t admit to murdering her but blamed his friend - who had died a short while before the visit by the podcaster. Nonetheless, he ended up admitting that he knew about the murder a lot. After this exhange the police begun to interview the man again. He’s still not under arrest but he is under inspection. In Finland this sort of turn of events after such a long time is rare. If the prosecutor decides to press charges that would be the second longest time between the killing and actual pressing of the charges in Finnish criminal history. I only hope that Sari’s family have gained some hope after all of this. It must be incredibly painful to be in a situation where you surely would like to ”get closure” (for the lack of better word) yet also don’t want other people to forget because they need leads - even if it means new news articles and podcasts and so on. (The name of the podcast btw is ”Viimeinen johtolanka” or ”The Last Clue” if translated into English. Unfortunately it’s all in Finnish.)

Recently found out vicarious trauma is a real thing. It means simply by watching a video or a few about a real event which is violent you can actually be full on traumatized. And if you are continuously exposed to the harmful video you can get ptsd. A lot of research shows that journalists or social workers can get ptsd from just hearing stories or empathizing with victims of a tragedy. But also they've found that news itself can cause this. In Japan when a certain tragedy from a neighboring country occured they put a warning not to watch or look up the tragedy online on twitter or youtube. But I accidentally already watched it and I couldn't sleep for 2 weeks, had flashbacks that actually made me throw up, and cried every day. And my therapist was like 'yep, you were traumatized. It's perfectly normal to be traumatized by watching a video of a tragedy' It's normal?! And I remember I cried when Netflix recommended me the Dahmer show because it just doesn't need to be brought up again. Also checked out of curiosity how many people are affected by a death (like grief and trauma) its said to be 130+. So if videos abd stories are shared about that I can imagine thousands of people being traumatized by the event. I think there needs to be better regulations about series on netflix. 13 Reasons Why was also harmful. (Also the American news, specifically Reuters, posted graphic images of the event that traumatized me so I also feel like the news has gotten out of hand...) Edit: I think the trauma comes from empathizing with the tragedies, not just because its violent. If the content seems distespectful to the families its also damaging to everyone else who could possibly sympathize or empathize with the family's situation.

@@delilah.d9457 My therapist said the need for more information was the brain trying to find more information to solve a problem. But tragedies are tragic because they can't be solved. Also I was traumatized accidentally AFTER deleting my watch and search history in youtube but I accidentally watched a youtube short which has the most disturbing imagery of the event that should not be shared and that's the thing that haunts me. It was a mistake in the algorithn because I was watching Halloween content. But I learned not to blame the uploaders because their action is a trauma response. Trauma responses vary widely, but I can imagine most of the people sharing the content aren't actually desensitized. Like you said you watched too much true crime. I think people suffering online accidentally get people to share their suffering just because when you feel terrible mentally you do a lot of illogical things like uploading horrific material.

Regular people (in our developed countries) do not see such things at all. I think it’s ok if people have a curiosity for gore. I mean, don’t surgeons? You have to have something different mentally than the average person in order to look at organs on a living person, cut them open, and sew them back up and not have any reaction. There will always be people like that. And honestly, we need certain people to be desensitized in order for us to have helpful people like that in society. It all depends on what they’re doing mentally with that curiosity.

The darkest part of black culture is being highlighted on the internet, and no one is speaking up against it loud enough... Black people are all staying silent about this. Why? Why must we be silenced like this? Who is this for? I'd like that to be discussed. Please.

Not to mention his behavior behind the scenes, like changing the main romantic plot of Glee because the main actress's bf (THAT abusive one) didn't like watching her kiss other guys. And the sexualization of teens in everything he's involved. The man is the personification of problematic.

We need to have a conversation about how weird and creepy Ryan Murphy is. Like almost all his projects have extremely problematic features (ex. Glorifying serial killers and school shooters, every offensive storyline in Glee, and constantly justifying the acts of terrible people under the guise of “satire”). Not to mention he’s consistently spotlighted two female actresses with terrible track records (Lea Michelle and Emma Roberts). While he could have not been aware of that, I have serious doubts since many coworkers have spoken up about how both actresses are outspokenly awful; and yet he always seems to fixate on them and continue to give them lead roles?? It’s like he actually buys into the mean girl rhetoric he supposedly satirizes 🙄🙄 In addition to being disrespectful to the families, he sent Evan Peters the script for Dahomey when he’s repeatedly said these types of roles drain him and he needed a break. Obviously Evan Peters is an adult and can make his own decisions, but it just shows that Ryan Murphy has a track record of being disrespectful, insensitive, and belittling to everyone-and then mocks people (especially minorities) in his projects when he’s your typical douchey white, male, director.

I used to love true crime, the more gruesome, the better. However, as I've become more aware of the affect that true crime documentaries have on the families of the victims, those kinds of documentaries have started to make me feel sick and I can't watch them anymore. I try to only watch true crime where the victims are alive to (willingly) tell their story. Good examples are "Our Father" and "The Tinder Swindler", both of which involved the victims of the crimes as driving forces in the documentary. Said victims are trying to raise awareness about the crime so that it won't happen again. And they get to tell their own stories.

when the 2017 movie came out, “my friend dahmer” i watched it bc i saw how involved ppl who actually knew dahmer were. ppl kept complaining evan peters not being the actor but i believe he was taking a break from ahs at the time. ross did a great job, but i feel hollywood still wanted to give evan the roll at one point. a lot of ppl irl have told me to watch the series, hell no. i hate how ppl only care about something when it becomes viral. now ppl talk about jeffery like they did ted bundy. i will not be investing in the series, it’s unnecessary and no one with their own personality wanted it

People listing true crime as one of/their very first “hobbies” has become an instant red flag for me, and so far it has never once steered me wrong in weeding out the type of people I want nothing to do with 💁‍♀️

loved this video. I am an abusive victim myself grappling with it every day. These things do affect us and I appreciate your commentary on it. very interesting how it relates to power and modern toxic masculinity

This is a legitimate genre in cinema called "exploitation". The directors intention is to "exploit" traumatic and taboo subjects on purpose to get people to talk about the movie/series. Making this video doesn't stop people from exploiting trauma as this was their goal. To have you talk about it. Js.

If Ryan Murphy wanted a ,,good“ Jeffrey dahmer series he should have make a episode of at least very victim, show their life and we learn about them and at the end show how Jeffrey brutally takes their life ( what he really did), but instead he’s trying to make us feel bad for Jeffrey by showing HIS life. We should not feel sympathy for him just because of his Past. He made so many innocent men suffer.

the world shifts from its axis, the black holes disappear from the universe and all that matters is that a new video from shanspear dropped.

Ryan Murphy couldn't write well enough to carry American Horror Story so now he's doing true crime

im pretty ill right now and the vibes you bring just feel like warm soup. these topics are harrowing to listen to but you’re so engaging and your voice is perfect for long form content. well-researched, insightful and overall a good video.
