disenchantedcitizen says: Americans are dealing with a lot of hate. Sodini’s diary hits on some reasons. After reading this clip, supported by diary entries, I see a lonely life and the futility of continuing that lonely life. While reading it I can almost feel for the guy but then it hits me, the reason he is not living the life he wants is because he gave up too easily. People find their own reason for living. If you aren’t happy with your life is it really anyone else’s fault? This guy places blame on every woman because he failed to have one in his life. I’m not talking about short term relationships he admits he had, if this guy had had his head on straight then there would have been a woman who would commit to a life with him. He is the reason for his failure. He points out his hopelessness and some valid problems that are brought on by the callousness of others, but to take lives because you don’t like the way you are treated is grounds for therapy not a deadly weapon. We have all dealt with rejection, very few of us will kill other people because of it. Unfortunately, this story will repeat itself because there are a lot of lonely people out there and we can’t help all of them, hell, we don’t always recognize them. As the author points out, reading this diary painfully humanizes this man. The media decides to make erroneous assumptions of him and paints him as a racist, anti-Obama monster. This is, of course, more sensational than saying he felt he was ostracized because he was not as calloused as they are. These women did not deserve to die as they did and society’s sense of security has been shattered yet again. This will continue as long as there are... Modern society lacks empathy. Yeah, go ahead and mock, but the fact remains that in general, people just don't seem to realize that all these other people they see every day (and the ones you don't see) are thinking, feeling human beings just like us. Society has become sociopathic. |
