Even though secrets typically refer to something that is not widely known, there are some that are common knowledge to many (even if certain people would rather they weren’t). These often include stories of someone’s bad deeds, intrigues, and even crimes, all of which are far from positive, yet often captivating nevertheless.

Discussing what tends to captivate people the most when it comes to documentaries, the redditor suggested that whenever they cover something that affects viewers directly or paints something in a completely different light from how they viewed it before, it immediately gets their attention. “Due to our contentious political climate, anything with a political tie will draw in more viewers [nowadays],” they said.

“Many answers were surprising,” the OP added, “but a common theme [that was] somewhat unsurprising were the Jeffrey Epstein and Trump comments. It makes you wonder why certain things don’t get more media attention.”

There was a pair there and the male was right up next to the fence. I was 6ft away with nothing but that open wire fence between us. He was one of the most beautiful animals I've ever seen, just gorgeous! It also frightened the liver out of me being that close to him. He was very calm and relaxed, and I was able to really examine all his features. Got some fantastic pics.

Yes. Apartments with bars on the windows and rats are asking for 3K a month. Landlords are gouging people- but also allowing 10 people in a 2 bedroom apartment in order to afford the costs, which is causing problems for neighbors. Also, how about companies that don't pay their staff enough to live in the area they are expected to work? I drive 3 hours a day because I can't afford to live anywhere near my job. This causes all kinds of problems with leasing. Because Boston rent is so ridiculously high, people from Boston have to move to smaller surrounding towns and basically push out the people who work and live there. Then landlords realize this so they up rents to staggering amounts, so it just pushes people to move further and further until they have taken over the area. Now a waitress in southcoast massachusetts has to drive 40 minutes to her sh!tty waitressing job because there's nowhere to live in her town. And she can't afford the gas so she ends up on welfare.

It was put in place in 1966 in order to promote negotiations over a land dispute between the Navajo and the Hopi and lasted until 2009." That land dispute was about to turn violent. Hopis and Navajos DO NOT care too much for each other. The Hopi reservation is island completely enclosed by the Navajo nation. Bennett's intervention circumvented violence.
