Yea, that's right. For every Clyde, there is a Bonnie. |
It is also the internet. The internet is fueling this. If we cut internet access we’d see a drop in mass shootings. |
I'm a married woman with a son and if anything I become more radicalized every day. Men should be born in jail and forced to live their way out via good behavior. |
Charlie understood it. That's why he had a security detail with him. |

“It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational."
- Charlie Kirk, TPUSA event in April 2023, right after the mass shooting that killed 6 at Christian Covenant School in Nashville. If those 6 people getting shot were acceptable losses for Charlie Kirk and his supporters then, then his supporters also need to treat the loss of Charlie Kirk as acceptable. |
Have you ever been around a toddler boy? Violence is innate in males. They like to hit, like to throw. They are socialized via the school system to not act like a caveman but sometimes nature can’t be tamed |
Different poster; it is fatalistic if we continue to do nothing. I don't think it's anti-man, I think it acknowledges a reality that is biological and extends back throughout human history. If we could devise a healthy nondisruptive way to moderate testosterone in the human male, we could go a very long way toward solving the violence problem in human society. Obviously we want our beloved men to have testosterone - but too much is what drives men to violence, the statistics on the reduced rates of recidivism in elder men who were once highly criminal make the case pretty clearly. Substance abuse is another driver of violent crime, and the inability of many men to cope in any kind of healthy way with their feelings, particularly anger, because our society still demands a toxic masculinity that damages men as much as women. Men aren't evil, they're just drawn to be saber tooth tiger wrestlers and we don't live in that age anymore. We have to figure out how to tweak their biology for optimal life experience in the modern age. |
Interesting, I don’t know if you remember prior to the internet and social media, we had ‘others’ who actually didn’t all turn into psychopathic killers. They just went along with life being the ‘other’. People were more apt to converse with them because the internet wasn’t telling the rest of us how to be and what type of person to engage with. We were free. |
| The first victim of male violence is the mother. I’ve never heard of any instance where a girl hits their mom for funsies but I’ve heard of plenty where little boys do just that |
I love this and I'm stealing it. |
No this is much more than male ‘entitlement’. |
My daughter is a terror are you kidding!? |
She might have higher testosterone than the average little girl, while still presenting as very feminine. |
Charlie Kirk was an acceptable loss. He said people getting shot was acceptable. Any argument against that is an argument against Charlie Kirk, and he said it would be an irrational argument. Sorry, MAGA. You need to just eat this and move on. |
You can directly link the rise of white male violence/mass shootings to the election of Pres Obama. That’s when the mass shootings started to spike in this country.. it was like instead of 9/11 we got lots of random mass shootings instead. Maybe it’s related to the rise of tech and not just Obama but it all started then. The perceived “loss of control” or becoming the “minority/marginalized” group doesn’t have to be real to be believed. There are apparently men that believed it. Lately, during the Trump admin, we have seen the rise of a few apparently trans shooters. That’s no accident either. They feel they are losing control. |
