If I say "try and avoid street X, there have been violent attacks there", is that victim blaming?

@PhilosophyExp@sjzara@AndrewDEvans I left my ipod in plain site and my car got broken into.
@JustinSiegel2 @sjzara @AndrewDEvans You *wouldn't* be culpable for the theft, but you would be culpable for your carelessness.

@PhilosophyExp@JustinSiegel2@AndrewDEvans That helps me understand - thank you. -
@sjzara@PhilosophyExp@JustinSiegel2 but are these analogies really transferable? -
@AndrewDEvans@sjzara@PhilosophyExp@JustinSiegel2 your lack of good judgment doesn't lessen the crime. They are independent. -
@toxicpath@AndrewDEvans@sjzara Yes, that's the point. But risk taking isn't *necessarily* morally culpable (dangerous sports, again). -
@PhilosophyExp@toxicpath@sjzara but don't you think advice that focuses exclusively on the victim feeds into and supports a rape culture? -
@AndrewDEvans@toxicpath@sjzara Plus, it's not a zero-sum issue - advice on staying safe doesn't preclude other strategies. -
@PhilosophyExp@toxicpath@sjzara but it's a culture in which all other strategies *are* precluded from the advice given -
@PhilosophyExp@toxicpath@sjzara nothing will change unless they are addressed. Men's sense of entitlement to women's bodies etc. - 3 more replies

@PhilosophyExp@sjzara@JustinSiegel2@AndrewDEvans Still theft, but not "breaking", and insurance won't pay out. -
@_TheGeoff@PhilosophyExp@sjzara@JustinSiegel2@AndrewDEvans Not true. An oversight is not the same as reckless disregard or morale hazard
