The article isn't about the creepiness described in the comments here. It's more about creepiness in general, like in clowns. It's pretty standard stuff actually...creepiness isn't just physical threat, it's a sense of impurity or a pollution of a thing's essence. Clowns are impure in the sense that they are humans gone wrong, with waxlike and distorted features.
- afarrell 10y agoI think a lot of people have a lot of anxiety around the concept of creepiness and when something that looks like an opportunity to try to discuss and maybe resolve this anxiety presents itself in a community where they feel at home, they jump to discussion. Of course, an openly-readable Internet forum is a risky place to open yourself up emotionally.
