[Serious] When a bullied person does something bad, the bullies should be held legally responsible for the events
When a bullied person - usually an incel, but not always - gets bullied and eventually does something bad (ie goes ER, or kills themself, or becomes a dictator and starts a world war) then the people who bullied them should be held legally responsible for the actions of the bullied person and all subsequent events. This is my honest opinion.

Because those are totally completely appropriate, proportionate and direct reactions to being bullied in one’s youth…
Seriously, what is wrong with these people, and how did they end up so twisted?
As Bast points out, there is a difference between a reasonable reaction to being bullied and a completely disproportionate reaction which smells more like an excuse to me. A lot of people are horribly bullied in school. They don't go on shooting sprees.
And Hitler was not an incel.
I ran across one of my biggest bullies in school at the local rec center almost a year ago. He (awkwardly) apologized to me for what he did, and I accepted his apology. We became close friends, and now we hang out a lot. Am I a “beta cuck” in your mind for not automatically punching him in the jaw and taking over the world instead? Probably. Do I care? No.
I was bullied, severely, for years. I have not killed anyone because of it, nor do I plan to.
That’s not to say it hasn’t had a profound effect on me.
What I am doing is working on creating a support group for adults who were bullied as kids.
Okay, let’s go with that. how far up the chain are we going to go? Those bullies were often bullied, that’s how they learned to be bullies. Are were going to grab up some 120 year old grandpa because he used to kick the shit out of some other 120 year old grandpa, who beat his son, who terrorized half his school, one of whom molested his daughter, who beat up her own son, who went and shot a dozen women who have no clue who he is, “because all women are worthless whores” in his words?
Yes, those who harm innocents should bear some responsibility for what their victims become and do, but always at the end, each of us still has to accept responsibility for ourselves. And generally speaking, if someone is that integrally responsible for the development of someone else’s personality, they did shit that calls for jail time anyway. Start dealing with the crap as it happens, instead of waiting for it to explode, and yeah, we’ll probably see less Elliot Rodger bullshit. But Elliot Rodger did the killings, Elliot Rodger should pay for those killings. Too bad the coward took himself out of the equation only after killing 22 people.
What if the bullied uses a water pistol to spray something that’s definitely not water in the bully’s eyes, leaving the bully with severly reduced vision, having to start wearing glasses and then he starts getting bullied because of the glasses?
A lot of people were bullied at some time during their childhood. Kids can be very mean, and they are often too immature to realize the consequences.
Quite a lot of people have bullied someone at sometime too. Perhaps even without meaning it. You might have said something insensitive once, but that might have been the tenth time that day that the person heard the same insensitive thing.
Women are more or less used to be seen as second-class humans. Men are “people”, women are (at 51 percent) a minority, a special-interest group. To then be called “foid”, not even human, might be the last straw…
Oh, you didn’t see yourself as a bully? Well, wake up and smell the coffee.
Confused?
