Worse than that, he was one of the main negotiators in the bank robbery turned hostage situation that the Stockholm in Stockholm syndrome refers to, and his and the other negotiators actions directly endangered the lives of the hostages, including the prime minister literally telling a hostage to find some solace in "dying at her post" as a fucking bank clerk.
So its not just misogyny, but pig coverup misogyny to prevent people from fully looking into their misconduct. The extent of the sympathy/feelings that the main "subject" had for the robbers was essentially that she believed the police had opened fire first and the robbers were defending themselves, and that the police were unnecessarily putting everyone at risk by refusing to simply comply with the demands of the robbers and instead doing bullshit like drilling holes in the bank vault roof.
Its basically just natural self-preservation shit, why the fuck would any hostages care about the money being lost or the robbers getting away, they just wanna get out without harm too, and the police attempting to stop the robbers and catch them inside the bank is objectively putting them in harms way.
Edit: Also a detail I forgot, the fucking cop psychologist that coined this term never even interviewed the woman he was claiming had been brainwashed, and on top of that this pig is one of the founding fathers of Swedens sociopathic drug policy that has caused us to have some of the worst drug lethality in all of Europe, still to this day the dehumanization and cruelty towards drug users is an absolutely bipartisan policy among all the parties here and this fuck is partially to blame.
Wasn't that woman in question also exposed to horrific acts of violence by the people who kidnapped her? Or am I thinking of a different "brain-washing" case, where the victim ended up robbing a bank?
You're thinking of Patty Hearst I'm pretty sure, the hostages in the Stockholm robbery as far as I recall were mostly left unharmed aside from being put in makeshift nooses at one point to deter the police from pumping in sleeping gas into the bank vault they and the robbers were holed up in.
The whole concept is nonsense. You get West Nile virus from travelling to the West Nile. My wife claims to have Stockholm syndrome, but she's never been to Stockholm, never even left the basement in the past 27 years.
Most of my knowledge comes from scattered bits and pieces, but apparently a journalist named Jess Hill published a book on domestic abuse called "See What You Made Me Do" that also heavily critiques and analyses the concept of Stockholm syndrome, and thats won some awards so that seems like probably a worthwhile place to look.
Originally it's misogyny. Like some pig psychologist made up a whole thing because he refused to believe a woman

Let's maybe not make jokes out of domestic abuse?
Is there a place where I can get more information about this? This is very interesting.
