So I've just heard that this crazy California murderer was an avid puahate and body buildings forum user. So as you do I went away and did a bit of homework and found his "last video". This guy's a psychopatch and what he did was clearly wrong.
Clearly he was given the wrong information or perceived information in a psychotic way. But what I don't understand is how could someone succumb to this and how someone like this could not get any help at all.
I read this article and the last sentence really resonated in me.

Why did seven people die in Santa Barbara last night? It would be wrong to pin the crime on Internet forums that indulge in self-hatred, then project it on to everyone else. But they’re certainly not the solution. Misogyny and violence against women is a social problem as well as an individual one. The fact that these men see “game” as the remedy to all personal and social ills is perhaps the greatest indictment of the way they view the world.
