Not saying that the subway is a utopia nor that unsafe things never happen here, but I suspect this is a propaganda piece to manufacture consent for the deployment of the national guard in the subway. https://hexbear.net/post/2107256
Indeed, notice the wording, this isn't an analysis of whether subways actually have more violence or crime, it's an analysis of how "safe" people feel. Vibes based analysis.
