Max, are you saying we have to have the shit beaten out of us by one of the 1% of psychopaths to understand the world? Does this include women, or is this a men's only kind of thing?

I'm sorry a bully beat you up, but at least your experience taught you about the world.

Scott doesn't need anyone to stick up for him, yet affluent, older, patriotic American men can't emotionally withstand a perspective that doesn't align with their feelings.

Maybe it's loneliness or fear of alienation that motivate the gaggle of men on Medium to bully and censor unconventional thinkers, or perhaps it's toxic masculinity egos.

We live in mad world, and we're trying to make sense of the insanity, yet people who don't validate our perspective aggravate us.

We created the most bizarre, violent society, and the younger generations will pay for it, but who cares? We don't have a future to collectively work toward, so why should they?
