>>13524770Trauma can reinforce rewireing of the brain. It can turn you more agressive/psychopathic. Most psychopaths have been turned into ones by their environment they grew up in. Unironically I can put myself completely into the mindset of charles manson. He could be seen as the "joker", he underwent such horrible shit in his childhood that he doesn't see any reward/gain for himself if he'd attempt to "change" himself. He literally is a spiritually enlightened "psychopath", and he has his points that the way how disconnected our society is with these enforced norms, and closed families, even more so today than back then, is a reason why he behaves like he behaves. In a tribe an individual like him would have it pretty difficult to turn so "crazy", because in a tribe people would care for eachother, theres no neglect. In Western societies people care only for themselfes. If you are a child growing up with no real healthy and meaningfull emotional bond, what do you think is going to happen? Add on top of that that he is highly intelligent, and able to articulate himself properly and you understand why he seemed so charismatic.
If you look at the results of mansions actions you could see he was actually a revolutionary without a plan. He wanted to destroy everything. He created his own "family" or "tribe". He did what he longed for. He was an individual that was completely congruent between his Physical and Spiritual self.
Ofc I don't want to justify what he did, the manipulation of the other people to do murders etc... its wrong. But I do understand mansion. He'd be more of a tribal Hippie revolutionary.
