How'd he do it?

Niggas (and women) love theatrics

He’s both a novel contemporary concept + the first mass media (newspaper) phenomenon. hes the viral serial killer who popularised the concept

of course serial killers existed before him and so long as humans have existed in cities, what makes him unique is his branding as the first notorious one whos image grew by a looping cycle of news stories that focused on him.

his crimes whilst not unprecedented historically, if you go back decade by decade you can find similar gory crime scenes but the frequency of them happening all within a short period of time whilst getting away with it in the heart of the world (london) was truly quite shocking. the letters to the police + speculation on who he is helps too, though if we're being realistic and not trying to sell a dumb book we almost certainly do not know who he is and every attempt to do so is extremely retarded

We had this thread last week. What was wrong with the answers you got then, tismo?

Because after he killed two women the Dear Boss letter appeared in the media and he was a national sensation, he then killed two women in the same night afterwards in the infamous "double murder", which sent the frenzy into overdrive, and finally he capped it off with the most brutal of his crimes, when he decided to tear apart Mary Jane Kelly inside her bedroom.

To this day the Mary Jane Kelly photograph is one of the most horrific things I have ever seen. It's also on the Wikipedia page and anyone can see it. Just so awful.

Ed Gein killed like 2 or 3, but he got remembered fir his costumes and props. The theratics and niche of the Ripper was what got him there.

>We don't know
We literally have his genes, he was a jewish man, lemmino made a video about it. Everywhere online has articles on the fact that DNA evidence of jack the ripper points to him being a jew. You fucking piece of shit who always tries to defend jews. Even lemmino was dancing around the DNA evidence like an idiot.

Jack the ripper was a jew and murdered White women non stop.

Seconding the first point. The Jack The Ripper corpses were so thoroughly mutilated that they don't resemble humans anymore. I'm intentionally not posting them for a reason. Even as a black and white photograph, it has to be one of the most fucked up things I've ever seen, it's far worse than cartel beheadings etc. I can't imagine having been the photographer capturing that in the era of a long ass exposure time plus how absolutely foul it must have smelled, poor guy probably had PTSD

You are such a drama queen, they are ugly but mexicans commit even more horrific murders everyday and upload them as snuff films. Even a 5 second glance at the rekt thread on /gif/ has videos so evil and disgusting of how mexicans murder people that jack the ripper ends up looking humane in comparison.
>>
>>18439449
Cartels don't spend hours mutilating victims. Worst you get with them is cutting the balls off and putting them in victim's mouth, you don't get a vile work of butchered flesh
>>
>>18439461
It amazes me how the vast majority of the population has never seen a cartel video. Not mocking or criticizing you for it, don't worry. But it is truly insane how almost the entire planet doesn't know the kind of murders that mexicans, brazilians, Africans do on the daily. The perspective of millions, nay billions, of people would change drastically and liberalism and tolerance would not exist if humans were forced to watch at least 1 cartel video like funkytown or the Zacatecas skinning people alive.

>>18439467
The use of media like that as preventatives is interesting. There were a bunch of politicians in the 80s who watched the British film Threads, which is about a worst case scenario nuclear war, and they strongly urged all policymakers to watch it. Granted it's fiction, but it's certainly moving

Jewish media signal boosting their guy

>>18439325
I checked this and I wish I hadn't.
>>
>>18438811
absolutely agree that it is about media and metropolis more than anything else

>speculation on who he is helps too
which is only possible because we know so much about many people in London at the time.

>To this day the Mary Jane Kelly photograph is one of the most horrific things I have ever seen. It's also on the Wikipedia page and anyone can see it. Just so awful.
what in the actual fuck... this is worse than the shit edgelords spam here
>>
>>18439436
Lol no. All the DNA "evidence" shows is that someone in Kosminski's extreme extended family owned a shawl. There's absolutely no evidence tying the shawl to the Ripper murders other than a self appointed Ripper expert saying that's what an auctioneer told him 30 years ago and a shawl of that description is not mentioned anywhere in the extremely detailed inventory of Catherine Eddowes possessions.

What's your problem with what I said?

It's a terrible image.

>>18438796
Before the invention of the printing press and mass media, people like him would’ve either lived happily in some rural town or chained away in some island prison

>Mary Jane Kelly photograph
I don't know if I'm desensitized but it's really not that bad. Kind of makes me hungry for roast beef, ngl...

Hello jidf, how's the weather from where you're at?
>>
>>18438796
How many truly super prolific serial killers do you know that are super famous? You get famous via flair, spectacle, and sheer hybristophilic attraction, not by kill count.
>>18438811
I don't doubt there were some rural serial killers even before properly urban civilization started. Idk, some wandering merchant or something.
>>18440867
You are, I've seen cartel videos where they cut out people's still beating hearts and eat them and that got me less than this.
He may have hated women, just a hunch.

>>18439931
Nah bro, a cop took a cumrag off a murdered prostitute to give to his wife. What are you, a fucking kike?!
