His dad was blowing all of their money on really dumb film projects, with very little return. Sprinkle ontop the classic absentee parenting of just giving the kid a credit card instead of attention, and letting the American school system raise him. Then on the flip side his "mothers", the only positive female interactions, weren't exactly paragons of moral virtue. Who also did basically nothing. They aren't to blame for his actions but letting them off the hook is essentially asking for something like that happening again. They and the Columbine/Sandy hook parents should be investigated THROUGHLY to show what not to do. All 3 cases there were more than enough signs of something is wrong.

The dude was a HUGE privileged pos don't get me wrong. If I remember right Mumkey Jones (before he got banned, that guy is another self admitted study himself lol) did a pretty great video about the entire situation including the guys posts. Which ofc was promptly taken down by Youtube. Interesting.

Most people stop looking into the case/manifesto at the "women owe me sex" portion. But there was a clear failure from the parents, to his therapist, to the school system, to the police investigating, and finally to just the people existing around him in general.
