Men and Mass Murder

Mass murder and woman-hatred go together like bacon and eggs.

Racism and sexism go together like bacon and eggs. Most of these dudes are racist as well.

Male entitlement, of which violence is one form of it, IS the major cause of so many men's troubles and even poses a threat to the earth. They are conditioned to be narcissistic. They are taught, from childhood, that they are owed anything and everything, and this is especially true with regard to women. Men never can get it in their heads women don't owe them anything. They aren't things to put their d***ks in, they aren't incubators, and they aren't domestic servants for them. They are human beings, not things to possess and own, not things to be bought and sold (porn, prostitution, surrogacy). It is not women's "job" to fix men.

The attitude towards women is even worse in cultures and religions like Islam, which still see women as chattel, completely subhuman, who can be killed on a whim.

Nobody should be surprised by this article.

The fact that mass shootings are almost exclusively perpetrated by men is “missing from the national conversation,” said Gov. Gavin Newsom of California on Monday. “Why does it have to be, why is it men, dominantly, always?”

Good question, Gavin. Some postulate men are inherently screwed up; the root cause of their being fucked up is in the "deteriorating" y-chromosome. Others, however, say it is the way men are raised, and I tend to agree with this. If all men were as genetically fucked up as some claim, the human race would have been dead and gone a long time ago. After all, men make the choice to behave violently towards women; to say they can't help it is the same sexist shit that tells women they have to restrict their movements for fear of being raped and murdered. It is saying men can't help it, and they aren't responsible for their actions.  It is saying it is up to women to "control" men by restricting their movements and behavior.  It is horseshit, I think.

It all goes back to the idiotic sex roles kids are indoctrinated with early in life. The internet, with forums set up for men who think they are entitled to women because they see women as objects to fuck and pop kids out, merely exacerbates the problem:

Experts say the same patterns that lead to the radicalization of white supremacists and other terrorists can apply to misogynists who turn to mass violence: a lonely, troubled individual who finds a community of like-minded individuals online, and an outlet for their anger.

“They’re angry and they’re suicidal and they’ve had traumatic childhoods and these hard lives, and they get to a point and they find something or someone to blame,” said Jillian Peterson, a psychologist and a founder of the Violence Project, a research organization that studies mass shootings. “For some people, that is women, and we are seeing that kind of take off.”

...

Psychiatrists, however, say that the attention on mental health generated by mass shootings, and the common argument that mental illness is the explanation for these massacres, cannot explain the link between misogyny and mass shootings. Misogyny — or other types of hatred — is not necessarily a diagnosable mental illness.

Instead, said Amy Barnhorst, the vice chair of community psychiatry at the University of California, Davis, who has studied mass shootings, what ties together many of the perpetrators is “this entitlement, this envy of others, this feeling that they deserve something that the world is not giving them. And they are angry at others that they see are getting it.”

Narcissism and entitlement by men. THOSE also go together like bacon and eggs.
