Driving a van into people is a sign of mental illness in my view. Asking to be killed afterwards is also a sign. This is not intended to detract from your point that he was a misogynist as well.https://twitter.com/_celia_bedelia_/status/989126649147994113 …

Thanks. I just don't get that people want it to be a clear-headed thinker who is misogynists to the nth degree and then drove his car into a crowd, then asked for police to kill him.
-
Whatever helps you dismiss the broader social implications of the communities full of men just like him, in other words. How unsurprising.
-
No one is doing that...in fact I think it provides sharp example for all the measures Trudeau is talking about in gender equality that people seem so keen to dismiss as unnecessary.

And the problem is that you don't know he's not....from the scant info we have seem thus far and from the 'suicide by cop' play that he made, the argument that he is both repellent misogynist Incel affinity scum WITH underlying mental issues is more probable.
-
well as long as it's *more* probable
-
Well of course we are talking in likelihoods....neither of us knows the full story so anyone pronouncing they have the answer is just silly and needlessly polarizing when overall we are all agreed this is a heinous act no matter what the reason or combination of reasons

I’m not going to play bottomless sea lion on this. You know what the real problem is? The real problem is that it doesn’t matter if he’s mentally ill or not. Everything he did right up until he killed someone was 100% enabled/excused/accepted. There are scores like him.
-
If you want to bend over backwards claiming extreme misogyny is mental illness go nuts. But by that standard every person in jail for murder for killing a wife or gf is mentally ill.
-
But all you’re really doing is building up the stigma around people who actually have mental health issues so you don’t have to accept the realities of toxic masculinity.
-
Nope, the scant info we have learned thus far leads us to believe there are some underlying issues for which extreme misogyny provided outlet. Again, people are more complex than you care to think he can be both and neither excuses anything
-
This navel gazing nonsense from people like you is why these guys continue to go on endlessly harassing and terrorizing without any consequence.
