In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse Q&A, Brandon Chadwick and Dr. Nicole Bedera discuss domestic violence and the ethics of true crime. They emphasize the importance of centering victims, avoiding re-traumatization, and ensuring stories benefit victims. Dr. Bedera highlights the need for trauma-informed approaches and the dangers of creating ambiguity where none exists. They discuss the impact of victim-blaming and the importance of empathy for victims who handle abuse differently. Dr. Bedera also touches on the role of perpetrators, noting that victims can provide more consistent information about them. They conclude by advocating for violence-free spaces and ethical storytelling in media.
