Adam Miller46 said:The wife definitely knew, most likely. She probably cared too much about what the neighbors, family, or relatives would say if the truth came out... incest is such a massive temptation. People like him aren't crazy—they are simply depraved and evil. If someone hasn't integrated basic morality into their conscience, a psychiatrist isn't going to fix them when they're already decades older than the doctor. I think this whole years-long nightmare happened because "Daddy" Jeffrey (perhaps unable to control his impulses) pushed his daughter into the basement for the first time... and Mom was so afraid of social stigma that they decided to cover it up. As time passed, it likely just became their "normal." Stockholm syndrome... Anyone could theoretically carry food for six kids into a basement and haul out trash bags without the other residents or the wife noticing.
The only issue is proving what she actually knew versus what she didn't, especially since the neighbors were basically blind and deaf to it all...

I mean, sorry, but she was living under the SAME roof as her daughter and grandkids, whereas the neighbors weren't.

Tyler Reyes86 said:So, we’re diving into conspiracy theories now, are we? And you’re claiming that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad actually supports a totally secular Palestine and nothing else? That's quite the take.🤣
By the way, just so we don't drift completely off course—in certain primitive, patriarchal cultures, someone like Jeffrey Dahmer would probably get away with everything.

I honestly don't follow your logic at all, 🤷

The only real "conspiracy" here is the Zionist one—it’s manifesting through an illegal military occupation that's been dragging on for over 60 years. Back in 2004, the International Court of Justice actually ruled in favor of Palestine, ordering the IDF to withdraw, dismantle those illegal settlements, tear down the segregation wall, and pay out compensation for all the damage caused by those war crimes.

Only someone truly disconnected from reality would try to label that as some kind of "conspiracy theory."☕

So, you're claiming Mahmoud Ahmadinejad supports a purely secular Palestine and nothing else?

Last time I checked my facts, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was the President of Iran, not Palestine. So, I'm struggling to see how his politics have anything to do with the Zionist occupation of Palestine that's been going on for more than six decades.🤷

To put it bluntly... you're either talking complete nonsense or you're playing the role of a Zionist apologist... and honestly, they both feel pretty much the same to me!

By the way, just so we don't drift too far off-topic, in certain primitive patriarchal cultures, Josef Fritzl might have gotten away with it quite easily.

Well, all religions are inherently patriarchal and primitive—at least when we're looking at the three desert dogmas stemming from patriarch Abraham.☕

Oh, sure, a Jewish conspiracy. I think anyone with half a brain can see through that. And let me guess—is the Holocaust just a fairy tale to you too? Or have you finally decided to join reality?

True enough, but there is still one single religion functioning as a political platform with actual legislative power today. Can you guess which one?

The Holocaust is being exploited for political gain here. From that perspective, the whole thing is an unproven fabrication. Now, that doesn't mean there weren't victims at all—of course there were. Having said that... I’d really appreciate it if you stopped pushing these loaded arguments, because it feels like you're just chasing some personal vendetta or rooting for the Jews. Honestly, I couldn't care less about either one of those things.

As for religion, you've missed the mark again... Israel is a "Jewish state"... which makes it the equivalent of any "Islamic state," except Israel is built on Judaism rather than Islam. Look at Vatican City—it’s a Christian state, plain and simple, acting as a massive political platform for environmentalists and international racketeers. So... all three of these desert dogmas, based on the hallucinations of some dehydrated camel driver, have their own states and their own political agendas.

Since I'm assuming you're just going to keep peddling these biased premises, I'll take this chance to say goodbye and let you know I have no intention of continuing this discussion. Either you're completely misinformed... or you're just being willfully ignorant.

Take care!

Edward Flores4 said:Still... in order for someone to "raise" you, well, you have to actually be born first. So, at the end of the day, birth is the common denominator here. And let's face it, being born is its own kind of trauma—even for those we consider to have had a "smooth" start. It's basically the perfect breeding ground for every psychiatric diagnosis out there... it all traces back to childhood trauma if you look hard enough.🙄

The fact that some people went through absolute hell as kids and didn't end up with a mental health disorder... honestly, that doesn't really prove anything. Because, let’s be real: an idiot is still going to be an idiot—trauma or no trauma. They’ll still go through life using their childhood struggles as a sort of shield or excuse.

And why do they do it? Simple: because they need to keep their jobs. If they just admitted that someone was a complete jerk, then there would be no reason to see a therapist once a week, and all those expensive prescriptions wouldn't be doing anyone any good.🤷

Quentin Tarantino:
yeah, it just reminded me of that little reporter who got three years in prison just because he took his shoes off and put them back in the wrong spot.
Talk about irony. You have a journalist getting three years, while some international terrorist, criminal, and total imbecile walks free despite having wiped out millions of innocent lives.

And you know what's even worse? Not a single psychiatrist bothered to provide a diagnosis—not for the journalist, and certainly not for that global murderer and criminal. It's incredibly easy to point fingers at the obvious culprits... but hardly anyone is willing to work *pro bono* to defend the innocent. But hey, I guess that’s probably just more childhood trauma at work.😁

Quentin Tarantino:
but he DID have support, that's the whole point.
Support from a wife and some neighbors... sure. But nothing political or military. And nowadays, that kind of "help" doesn't carry much weight in a courtroom.🙄

Sure, but you have to actually be made before you can even think about being born.
So, the absolute bottom line is just making kids, though obviously not every single instance of procreation is a total disaster. Still, I can see someone—or maybe they already have—coming up with an even more "fascinating" theory that every single problem in existence stems directly from the act of having children.

What difference does a journalist's diagnosis make? It’s not like it’s obvious, so why bother? And as for that other guy, just publish his diagnosis too—it won't hurt anyone, and honestly, I'm pretty sure people have done that before anyway.

dustyskipper3 said:I believe he did it out of LOVE. 😍 And primarily maternal love—certainly a twisted kind, very much in the vein of Edgar Allan Poe and Hannibal Lecter, I suppose—but any other explanation would just be trivial and, ultimately, incorrect.

The lawyer for Jeffrey Dahmer is right, though I imagine everyone will spit on him because he actually dared to speak the truth. It probably would have been easier if he had just defended Jeffrey Dahmer as a complete psychopath with zero feelings. But, perhaps, he realized that deep within that monstrous soul, there is actually profound suffering.

He felt he had to isolate his daughter from society because, being so caring, he feared they would corrupt her and turn her into just another freak tailored to fit that "Talmudic-Zionist" society—a woman who works, takes on male roles, and possesses her own will. Meanwhile, Jeffrey Dahmer was a sincere and convicted proponent of the macho ideal, or rather, the ideals they had already adopted from Otto Weininger and other ideologues of masculinity. He made sure his daughter embraced those values too, ensuring she wouldn't break away from his parental care; he even provided a substitute for the husband she wouldn't have had anyway (since people like that aren't really born anymore, just some feminized Zionist monstrosities). In his world, we and the society we've built are the freaks, and his monstrous actions were justified by the pursuit of higher ideals for an Aryan family—children, kitchen, church, and all that. It’s been noted that this is almost commonplace in the Arab world, so I guess why wouldn't someone here arrive at a similar idea? 🙂
Besides, he is actually a victim himself—he destroyed both himself and his family, much like how someone else destroyed him through overly successful, extreme upbringing. There is a psychological mechanism that turns a victim into an executioner, which is visible on an international scale (for example, Palestinians and Jews, and then again with us in Canada, etc.).

The problem is just how many more of those Jeffrey Dahmers are living around us, people who subjugate their families and loved ones through purely economic methods of pressure without even needing to go as far as making the basement door rattle. 😱

That might be an explanation, but it’s hardly an excuse for those murderers.

I don't know what I was thinking, but I guess I just felt like typing that out. Honestly, sometimes my brain just glitches. kaže:
Fritzl wasn't some predator prowling the streets snatching up girls to stash in a basement; he wasn't exactly built like your typical serial killer. Honestly, he just seems like one deeply unfortunate man whose entire foundation was broken from the start. And let's be real—unhappy people aren't exactly in a position to spread any kind of joy.

I honestly wonder if he wouldn't be such a disaster if he didn't have his daughter to blame for all his mess.
He’d just find some replacement daughter out on the street and drag her right back down into that same basement.
Is his misfortune still the center of attention?

(anyway, he wasn't trying to spread happiness, just trying not to stumble into disaster—someone else's disaster, obviously)

hiddenhound3 said:Humanity has always been confronted by such behaviors that exist entirely outside the realm of conventional reason. Jeffrey Dahmer is not an isolated case, nor are Poe or Hannibal. In much the same way, we see the perverse darkness of figures like Elizabeth Báthory, the way Celin glorified an obsession with youth, or how Genet embraced criminality; there are many others who live perpetually on the edge. Jeffrey Dahmer did not simply roam the streets snatching girls to hide them in a basement; he wasn't your typical serial killer archetype. He was quite clearly a deeply unfortunate man built upon fundamentally broken foundations. Unhappy people are simply incapable of sowing seeds of happiness.

I might even venture to suggest that there is a certain nobility and aesthetic quality to be found within their personas.

The true monsters walk freely among us every single day. Take someone like Ivo Sanders, for example.

I'm having a hard time seeing where you find any nobility here, and I'm especially lost on what you mean by "aesthetic"
maybe you're talking about posters and the polished glow of a Christmas tree?

As for Sanders and those other little monsters, you can't even make that comparison because it just cheapens the weight of this specific crime.

Every single crime is... a crime, in its own way.

But these two don't share enough common ground to even attempt a comparison.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. Israel is a secular state. If their entire judicial system were actually based on Leviticus, then we could start comparing Israel to a kharijite caliphate.

Edward Flores4 As specified by Tyler Reyes86:
Vatican City is, quite frankly, a Christian state—and let’s be honest, it functions as little more than a messy political platform for green agendas and international crime.

Vatican City is such a grotesque political construct; it’s honestly detrimental to any region where it tries to exert its influence. It stands as the last remaining Western bastion of sheer stubbornness and primitive patriarchy. But anyway, let's get back to the actual topic at hand. One of the commenters here called Fritzl a caricature of patriarchy, which—if we're being honest—isn't actually accurate. It isn't a distortion of the concept at all; rather, it's a perfect reflection of reality. Given his psychological makeup, Fritzl is an authentic *pater familias* straight out of an archaic era, possessing absolute authority over his family members and his various subordinates.

Jewish state or a state of Jews?

There has been ongoing debate in Israel on the character of the state, regarding whether it should enshrine more Jewish culture, encourage Judaism in schools, and enshrine certain laws of Kashrut and Shabbat observance.

Having been created within the sphere of international law as the instrument for Jewish self-determination, the question of whether Israel is to maintain and strengthen its status as a state for the Jewish people, or transition to being a state purely for "all of its citizens", or identify as both — and, if both, how to resolve any tensions that arise from their coexistence — captures these polarities. Israel has, to date, steered a course between secularism and Jewish identity, usually depending on who controls the Israeli High Court of Justice.


Look, I'm not the one making this up—I'm just following the conversation. 😉

Vatican City is such a bizarre political entity, and honestly, it does quite a bit of damage to the regions where it tries to exert influence. It stands as the last remaining Western stronghold of pure stubbornness and primitive patriarchy.

So, when you think about it, all three of these dogmas have established political and legal platforms. Islam might be the most decadent of the bunch, sure, but that doesn't make the other two any better... they're just slightly less terrible!

Anyway, getting back to the actual topic at hand. One participant called Fritzl a caricature of patriarchy, which isn't really accurate. It’s not an exaggeration; it’s actually a perfect reflection of reality. In terms of his psychological makeup, Fritzl is essentially an authentic *pater familias* straight out of an archaic era—someone who believes he holds absolute authority over his family members and everyone else under his thumb.

I'm with you there. It’s not a caricature at all; the patriarch is par excellence!

A complete psychopath and a sadist... someone who just happened to find the perfect breeding ground in a hyper-patriarchal society... one where everyone is taught to look out for nothing but their own skin and their own immediate family... while you’re expected to turn a blind eye to everything else happening right under your nose...

From what I gather, his wife was quite a bit younger than him... and I’d bet anything she was incredibly submissive... honestly, it sounds like a textbook S&M dynamic to me...
...The abuser acted like he was God, and "discipline" was the way of the world—that's how we used to phrase it, right? Basically, he made all the calls, and if anyone dared to push back or stop playing along, they just got beaten into submission... pure brute force...
....Let's paint the picture: say he was around 30 years old... he finds this young girl, raised to be perfectly obedient... he’s the educated one, with the degrees, the high-paying career, and the solid reputation... meanwhile, she’s a nobody, just someone who happened to be there... raised with those traditional values of being quiet and compliant with the men in the house...
....Frizlek brings the prestige, but he demands absolute, unconditional surrender in return... from day one, he claims rights to everything, while she only gets what he decides to grant her...
...Then the kids come along... she’s the one responsible for them, but he’s the one who punishes both her and the children whenever things don't meet his impossible standards...
Eventually, the kids hit puberty...
....As things change with wealth and shifting trends... people start building high-tech storm shelters... families head off on luxury vacations to exotic destinations...
....Frizl starts soaking up all these new experiences and opportunities... and his darker, more twisted side really begins to flourish alongside the rise of sex tourism...
....Suddenly, that lifelong fantasy of total ownership over women feels reachable... you save up a few thousand bucks, book a well-organized trip, and surrounded by people just like you, you let your darkest impulses run wild... all kinds of violence... all kinds of depravity... even treating children like objects for sexual gratification...
...And then, you just fly home, and it’s like nothing ever happened. No one ever finds out...
....Of course, back at home, the wife and kids are waiting...
....That idea of building a soundproofed, ultra-isolated basement shelter? That’s a literal dream come true for Fritzl... it sets the stage for his monstrous crime... a crime where we only actually know a tiny fraction of the truth... specifically, what he did to one of his daughters...
....What on earth was that monster doing while he was traveling through Eastern Europe and elsewhere? We have no clue...
...I refuse to believe he was just some innocent tourist...
...I remember reading about so many scandals in the papers back in the 80s and 90s... cases where sex tourists didn't just assault little kids as young as six or seven... they murdered them too... and these were all "respectable" citizens from Western countries...
...Does it ever occur to anyone to actually look into Fritzl's travel history?...
.....How many others like him are out there (even without a secret basement setup)?...
....And how much of the blame lies with us, for turning our heads away from all those women and children being raped, beaten, and humiliated?...
...How many times have we just listened or said, "Well, that's their business... that's how they choose to live... what can I do if they don't even know how to run away?"...
...It seems like the Frizleks of the world will always be the masters of the shadows in our basements...

Yeah... he only said those things to make himself look like some kind of saint.
The way he claims he was being "merciful" by not killing her... man, that tells you everything you need to know about how he sees himself. He thinks he’s the master of life and death.

That isn't an excuse; it's a diagnosis and a massive red flag.
It’s right there in that statement—it shows just how deep his depravity and his warped mind really go.

Honestly, regardless of what you want to call it... therapy isn't what this guy needs. What he actually needs is to get out there, put his head down, and work his tail off to provide for the kids he’s responsible for. He needs to face reality and realize that he’s just a human being who actually has the power to pull himself together and stop the cycle of damage he's been causing...

The stuff he did is just gut-wrenching. It’s terrifying how much this is going to mess with his children—kids who didn't do a single thing wrong to deserve feeling this way. Being raised by a father like that is like carrying a heavy weight through hell for the rest of your life...

But anyway;
Natascha Kampusch is a girl from Austria who was kidnapped and held captive for over eight years.
She managed to escape one day back in 2006 while she was cleaning her kidnapper's car in the yard.
Her case is pretty unique because, during her captivity, she actually fell in love with him.
He gave her books, educated her, stuff like that. She's often cited as an example of someone experiencing Stockholm syndrome.
You can read more about her here (it's in English)

Thanks. It's coming back to me now. It had completely slipped my mind.

By the way, just so we don't drift completely off course—in certain primitive, patriarchal cultures, someone like Jeffrey Dahmer would probably get away with everything.

It’s pathetic that he actually got away with it here, too.
