What resentment can lead to

4 posts in this topic

I just found out about this guy named "Elliot Rodgers" (read abut him in a post by @Preety_India). 

Though his story is tragic, it's a good opportunity to learnt about resentment, narcissism and neglect. He ended up shooting and killing people out of this  resentment. 

 

He also wrote a manifesto, in case you're interested in his very private thoughts and motivations: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/1173808-elliot-rodger-manifesto.html 

Resentment is just so unbelievably destructive...

I read a few pages of his text.

What stands out to me is, that he never seems to try to talk to women and resents them for not talking to him and giving him a chance.

It's being a victim 101.

He places all of his hope on being good looking and rich.

I think a lot of it has to do with how he grew up, with well-off parents. Never really having to work in his life.

 

And he seems to really love being pathetic and shameful.

This guy should've used the Internet better... He died in 2013 something iirc. Poor misguided soul.
