That kid was clearly an idiot.

So are most kids, his idiocy just went in a bad way.

That's not what I mean. At his age I could write circles around him without trying. His ideas are also pathetic sophomoric cliches, but that's besides the point.

So, what's the takeaway here? Kids who get ignored by their peers are more likely to become introverted sociopaths? Is the major issue bullying (which was what a lot of articles at the time were implying) or simply being ostricized? Looking at that stuff, the kid had some kind of mild autism in addition to just being a plain asshole... which probably explains WHY his peers didn't want anything to do with him.

"It's always the quiet ones..."

What's with all the German? Somebody slip him a copy of Mein Kampf at some point?

"It's always the quiet ones..."

During certain time periods of my schooling I was "bullied" and was one of the "quiet ones" and mixed in with a lifelong of major depression episodes I sometimes considered suicide, but never killing anybody. I think when one doesn't fit in, they often seek to identify with a non-conventional method of thinking. Sometimes these people become great, world changing people (in a positive way), sometimes they grow out of it or they just find a destructive and hateful way of thinking to cope with their feelings of isolation.

What's with all the German? Somebody slip him a copy of Mein Kampf at some point?

Probably, like I said above.

You know, you really don't have to break up a quote just to mention that you answered something in an eariler part of the quote.

I think it's interesting that these journals are out there, hopefully it'll help prevent this kind of thing in the future. Hope it isn't causing a heavy-handed crackdown on the quiet kids, but who knows. Maybe a good thing.

I was originally going to say something else but I already broke up the quote. Since I suck at the internet and don't like using laptops I was determined to go with it.

Exactly this. That kid was fucking stupid whether he got bullied or not. Only Weeman would consider any of his writings wisdom.
