Serial killers kill 3+ people with a cooldown period. Killers back then existed cause america was a high trust society with few cameras.
Cameras definitely have made escaping recognition much harder, I’ll give you that.
However, consider how many times have we seen people
doing fucked up shit on camera and getting away with it.
Two-tier policing is
definitely a thing and some people will have techno-wizardry thrown at them and others will be permitted to continue. And that’s not even getting into the wacky conspiracy theories where
the government makes serial killers as a form of psy-op.
Also consider that people can wear masks. Sure, cameras can still follow a masked person to a location where they take the mask off. Sure, people back in the 1970s had masks, but people nowadays have
socially sanctioned reasons to walk around masked in public.
And high-trust societies aside, you’re also talking about a period before the concept of a serial killer was probably defined and understood. Sure, there were concepts like
lustmord, but there was also a general understanding amongst police that murderers didn’t kill strangers. Nowadays, the serial killer is engrained into popular culture and is highly recognizable. So that’s a point in favour of your “fewer serial killers” argument - which I don’t necessarily disagree with.
I think there probably
are fewer serial murderers now than in the ‘70s - I just
also think you’re wrong to say such crimes are impossible in the modern age. They very much
are, even if they’re less common. Also consider how the homicidal urge can be transmuted elsewhere - just because the serial killer decreases in popularity, doesn’t mean other forms of homicide won’t replace it.

Serial killers are lame…Everyone knows that mass murderers are the cool kids.
And
trannies seem fond of
that mode of murder as well.
Nowdays everyone has a phone that can film and I think people trust each other less. You might be able to kill one person, but most people are bad at making people disappear and destroying bodies.
The ocean is a
thing that exists.
The moment someone stops answering calls and messages for 3 days, friends and family immediately get suspicious and call the police, from there on they could track the last spot where their phone was.
You’re assuming that they will choose victims with concerned families. There’s a
reason why children in foster care are so viciously targeted and why “pinkpilling” and
“going no contact” are shilled for so intensely.
People nowdays are more interconnected than ever in history. Maybe I'm just being naive but I struggle to believe serial killers can just go rampant nowdays, unless police and FBI doesn't give a crap about your local area and lets it turn into a lawless jungle.
Now why would anyone want to do that?
