You think this will reduce school massacres? How?
By relieving a great deal of stress from people entering adulthood. We live in a dog eat dog world, this would effectively make it not so. I believe that stress is what lies at the root of this insanity. Stress is what activates the epigenetic trait that otherwise would have been expressed as heightened compassion. This stress is felt long before entering adulthood actually, it is felt at home by a stressed out dad stressing his family out and his kids then go to school and bully other kids, stressing them out. The social construct is stress. Stress seems to be what is shared more than anything.
The undertone is "oh, you lazy ass, you want to live off of my work, you ought to share in my misery". When someone who lives by this sentiment is laid off because he is no longer needed he shares even more stress, but he is never rewarded, he just lives his entire life under pressure and puts everyone around him under pressure. Our social construct is seeking to find how many seats the rock bottom can accommodate, instead of raising the standard for humanity. What I am suggesting, is that instead of life's plan resembling a maze with cheese at the end, making mice of men, we ought to embrace the fact that there is not enough work to go around, yet there is plenty of food and ammunition. Why create jobs? Why not make everyone's work day shorter and instead of making more bullets, we invest in renewable energy and water desalination?
Seriously, why is it that we are trying to create jobs? I would think we ought to do the exact opposite, get the work done and fucking relax, all of us. AND SMOKE A FUCKING JOINT! Didn't you always want your kids to have a better life than you? We have worked so hard and what have we created for the inheritors of the world? They are stressed. That is what I think. I think this kid was not just crazy, he was stressed the fuck out and needed a break. The whole fucking world is in a pressure cooker stressed the fuck out. This kid burst, just like that stressed out over-achiever in Aurora Colorado. Just like those stressed out kids that were bullied in Columbine. Just like all those guys who came home from Iraq and killed their cheating wives. Stress is what we all have in common when we burst.
It is time to raise the bar on the collective subconscious.
