Humans really expected one of the most boring and hopeless dystopians of all time and expected everybody to be cool with it?

So why do the wackos kill the rest of us? Go after the elites if they're that upset.

Ted Cruz looks like he's in a rough spot

I fail to see the relevance of this post and it comes off as if people want to victim blame. A lot of people have problems. A lot of people get bullied. Just think about the thousands of women who get raped and sexually abused throughout their lifes.

Mass shooter fit a profile, sure. They obviously aren't happy people. But the reason why they do this is not what has happened to them in their lifes. Otherwise we would have a lot more mass shooters.

I think you're missing the point in that we already have a lot of mass shooters because society has failed them.

This is a symptom of our society.

Trying to absolve society of its involvement is essentially just turning a blind eye to the problem and hoping it goes away. Which is exactly the problem that we have.

This is simply taking an actual nuanced thought on the situation instead of letting your emotions regulate your thoughts and turning everything into a false dichotomy.

"fail ASVAB" aside, this is true

Have people considered NOT murdering other people? Ohh wait, most of them have. That's why most of them don't. Ahh silly me.

do something fantastic in their life

Wut now?

Maybe 4chan self-propagandizing mass shootings as "something fantastic" should be one of those environmental factors being considered in what led up to the end result?
