Columbine had the same thing of manifestoes I think there has to be more than just manifestoes

??

More how?

for what must there be more?

The Christ church shooting and the El Paso shooting had two similarities the idea of eco-terrorism

Dat Spyro 3

sure, and that comes from the social breakdown

we have an alarmist media, low social trust, and the narrative of overwhelming issues that will fuck the average person

that's a fair assessment

But my mind thinks that I am a missing something

If you dont have strong internal morals, it's easy to get lost in the frivolity and mundanity

these are people who would have been fathers if they A) trusted enough to invest in the future and B) had people they felt comfortable investing in

What a a growing amount of people are having trouble with is a place they can belong.

yes, because nobody is building up

every transaction, every relationship you have, is held on a temporary basis now

you dont really know me. I dont really know you

You mean... your name isnt really beeman?!?!

we may interact in here every day for the next year, but we'll never actually see each other. You cant count on me to watch your kids or take part in a community watch, or look out for your localized needs

Hit the nail on the head

that's happening even on a personal, face-to-face level though

it's not just like that online though, it's like that in meatspace as well

mhm

which is... sad

Partially to blame is social media

it's been happening for years

Yeah

And internetting

been reading Bowling Alone

predates the internet

started in the 60s and 70s

Like, my spawn has been asking me to look for someone and settle down so she can have siblings

but

that whole idea of trusting someone enough to make the next generation with them

lmao

out the fucken window

Understood

I dont think the internet has caused the issue, I think the internet has merely exposed it

the extent of it

the internet exacerbated it I think

and yeah, shed a light on it
