2025年,维多利亚州的青年帮派暴力在成人剥削的驱动下猛增,引发了对标签和根源的镇压和辩论。 Youth gang violence in Victoria surged in 2025, driven by adult exploitation, sparking crackdowns and debate over labeling and root causes.

澳大利亚维多利亚州青年帮派活动在2025年急剧上升,逮捕了1 480名与武装抢劫和刺杀等严重罪行有关的476名青年帮派成员。 Youth gang activity in Victoria, Australia, has risen sharply in 2025, with 1,480 arrests of 476 youth gang members linked to serious crimes including armed robberies and stabbings. 警方报告,成年罪犯通过供应武器和毒品剥削青年,促使扩大反结社措施,包括针对18岁以上的成年人,并加强监测。 Police report adult criminals exploiting youth by supplying weapons and drugs, prompting expanded anti-association measures, including targeting adults over 18 and intensifying monitoring. 尽管自2020年以来活跃的帮派成员净减少,但暴力事件有所增加,引起对过度使用“gang”标签的关切,批评者说,该标签污蔑无辜的青年,并歪曲有机同侪团体。 Despite a net decrease in active gang members since 2020, violent incidents have increased, raising concerns over the overuse of the "gang" label, which critics say stigmatizes innocent youth and misrepresents organic peer groups. 专家们强调,心理创伤、贫穷和社会排斥等根本原因比族裔问题更为重要,他们主张实施资金不足但有效的早期干预方案,重点是家庭支助、教育和社区参与,作为惩罚措施的可持续替代办法。 Experts emphasize that root causes—such as trauma, poverty, and social exclusion—are more critical than ethnicity, and advocate for underfunded but effective early intervention programs focused on family support, education, and community inclusion as sustainable alternatives to punitive measures.
